What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), when you play Empoleon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Active Pokémon, you may use this power. Your opponent can't attach any Energy cards from his or her hand to his or her Pokémon during your opponent's next turn.
During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Empoleon by attacks is reduced by 20 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).
Flip a coin. If heads, discard an Energy card attached to the Defending Pokémon.

Where it came from
The Empoleon card, numbered 2/100, was released as part of the Stormfront expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2008. This set was notable for concluding the Diamond & Pearl era, focusing on Pokémon introduced in the Sinnoh region and featuring advanced mechanics like Pokémon LV.X, which allowed players to level up their active creatures during gameplay.
The illustration was crafted by the long-time franchise artist Daisuke Ito. In this rendition, Empoleon is depicted in a dynamic, defensive posture that emphasizes its steel-type characteristics and its regal, trident-shaped crest. The card was well-received by players for its ability to anchor water-type decks, contributing to the broader strategic depth of the late-2000s competitive meta.
