What it does
During your opponent's next turn, any damage done by attacks from the Defending Pokémon is reduced by 20 (before applying Weakness and Resistance).
A poor walker, it often falls down. However, its strong pride makes it puff up its chest without a care.

Where it came from
The Piplup card numbered RC6/113 was released as part of the Radiant Collection, a special sub-set introduced within the Legendary Treasures expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game in 2013. This sub-set was designed to appeal to collectors who favored adorable, stylized artwork, featuring a distinct holographic finish and a unique numbering system that separated it from the main set. The cards in this collection were aimed at bridging the gap between standard competitive play and the aesthetic interests of fans who enjoyed the game's creature-based narrative.
The illustration for this particular Piplup card emphasizes the character's charming nature, utilizing soft lines and a bright color palette characteristic of the Radiant Collection's design philosophy. Like other cards in this series, the design prioritized a playful, endearing visual identity over the more aggressive combat themes often seen in contemporary expansions. Upon its release, it was well-received by casual collectors and enthusiasts of the Piplup character, remaining a notable example of the supplementary sets that punctuated the Black & White era of the franchise.
