Origin

Hydro Pump is a move in the Pokémon games that Blastoise can learn. This card's flavor text comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. Rain Dance is also a move in the Pokémon games that Blastoise can learn, though it wasn't until the next generation that it was introduced.
