What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may reveal the top card of your deck. If that card is a basic Energy card, attach it to 1 of your Pokémon. If not, put the card back on your deck. This power can't be used if Walrein is affected by a Special Condition.
Flip a coin. If heads, each Defending Pokémon can't attack during your opponent's next turn.

Where it came from
The Walrein card from the Hidden Legends set was released in 2004 as part of the Pokémon Trading Card Game's EX series. This set was notable for introducing the concept of Pokémon ex, featuring powerful evolved forms, and Walrein was featured as a rare holographic entry. Its inclusion in this set was timed to coincide with the popularity of the third generation of Pokémon, specifically the Ruby and Sapphire era, which brought the Hoenn region to a global audience.
The artwork for this card was created by Kouki Saitou, a long-standing illustrator for the franchise known for his dynamic depictions of Water-type Pokémon. Saitou’s design sought to capture the formidable and tank-like nature of Walrein, emphasizing its defensive capabilities and its icy habitat. Upon release, the card was well-received by players for its solid base statistics and its role as a sturdy powerhouse in the competitive Water-deck archetypes of the mid-2000s.
