Origin

Waterfall is a move in the Pokémon games that Octillery can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Shield. The Battle Styles Secret print features the Shiny version of Octillery. A Fisher based on the Pokémon Sword and Shield character design is featured in the Brilliant Stars print's illustration. While a few of this Trainer class use an Octillery in the core series games, none do in Sword and Shield.
