Card text

Pokémon Power: Frog Song かえるのうた

Whenever Politoed's attack damages the Defending Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance), if there are more than 3 Poliwags, Poliwhirls, Poliwraths, and/or Politoeds in play (including your opponent's), that attack does 40 more damage (no matter how many heads you get). This power stops working while Politoed is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.

Doubleslap おうふくビンタ 40×

Flip 2 coins. This attack does 40 damage times the number of heads.
