About Piplup
Because it is very proud, it hates accepting food from people. Its thick down guards it from cold.

Artwork Description
The artwork on this card depicts a playful Piplup joyfully splashing in a pool of water, waving with a happy expression under a night sky with palm trees and bright lights in the background.
Playability Overview
Piplup serves as a simple early-game attacker with low HP and modest damage, useful for setting up evolutions but vulnerable to Grass-type counters and easy knockouts.
