Trivia

  • Although this Pokémon is level 26, Cubone does not evolve into Marowak until level 28.
  • Marowak's species name is mislabeled as "Bonekeeper Pokémon," while its actual species name is the "Bone Keeper Pokémon."

Origin

Bonemerang is a move in the Pokémon games that Marowak can learn. The Japanese name of the attack uses the Hiragana ほね rather than the Katakana ホネ used in the video games. The card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
