What do the attacks on Octillery 58 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 0 Energy and returns 50 damage, which is 0 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Water Vein | No Energy | 0 | 50× | — | Reveal the top 5 cards of your deck. Flip a coin for each Energy card you find there. This attack does 50 damage times the number of heads. Shuffle the revealed cards back into your deck. |
| Octazooka | 2 Water | 2 | 40 | 20 | Any time the Defending Pokémon tries to attack, your opponent flips a coin. If tails, that attack does nothing. (If the Defending Pokémon is no longer your opponent's Active Pokémon, this effect ends.) |
Retreating costs a further 2 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
What each attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.
One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.
Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol
A number on a Pokémon card is not always the number that lands.
- Water Vein is printed as 50×, so the printed number is multiplied — the attack deals that much for each thing the sentence beside it counts.

Back to summaryWhat does being a Water card do for Octillery 58?
Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.
17,249 cards carry an energy type. The note under each name is the weakness printed most often on that group.

Of the 560 cards in the archive that can remove Octillery 58 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 70 printed damage against a bar of 70. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.

What is Octillery as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Octillery 58 is one print of Octillery. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.
Every Octillery print on record, split by whether it can still be entered in Standard play.
Legality is read from the print rather than from the Pokémon, so an older copy of the same Pokémon is a different card for tournament purposes.
Back to summaryWhat has to be in play before Octillery 58 can be?
Octillery evolves from Remoraid, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.
- This card cannot be played from your hand onto an empty spot — it goes on top of Remoraid.
- The line runs 2 stages, so the first card has to be in play 1 turn before this one can be.
Every print of a stage is counted, not just the one shown in the chain above, so the bar is the ceiling that stage has reached rather than one card from it.
Is this the strongest Octillery print, and can the older ones still be played?
19 prints carry this name in the archive. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.
Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.

3 of the 19 prints listed here are legal in Standard play. An older print of the same Pokémon is a different card for legality, because legality is read from the print rather than from the name — so owning the cheap old copy does not always mean you can enter with it.
