Contents

Card text (EX Sandstorm print)

Play Claw Fossil as if it were a Basic Pokémon. While in play, Claw Fossil counts as a Colorless Pokémon (instead of a Trainer card). Claw Fossil has no attacks of its own, can't retreat, and can't be affected by any Special Conditions. If Claw Fossil is Knocked Out, it doesn't count as a Knocked Out Pokémon. (Discard it anyway.) At any time during your turn before your attack, you may discard Claw Fossil from play.

Poké-BODY

Poké-BODY Jagged Stone
するどいせきしつ
If Claw Fossil is your Active Pokémon and is damaged by an opponent's attack (even if Claw Fossil is Knocked Out), put 1 damage counter on the Attacking Pokémon.

Play Claw Fossil as if it were a Colorless Basic Pokémon. (Claw Fossil counts as a Trainer card as well, but if Claw Fossil is Knocked Out, this counts as a Knocked Out Pokémon.) Claw Fossil can't be affected by any Special Conditions and can't retreat. At any time during your turn before your attack, you may discard Claw Fossil from play. (This doesn't count as a Knocked Out Pokémon.)

Release information

This card was reprinted in the EX Legend Maker, EX Holon Phantoms, EX Power Keepers and Legends Awakened sets with new art by the same artist. The EX Legend Maker print changed "instead of a Trainer card" to "as well as a Trainer card"; this kept the card in line with a prior errata.
