Trivia

Origin

Obstruct is a move in the Pokémon games that Obstagoon can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Shield. The Vivid Voltage and Shining Fates prints feature the Shiny version of Obstagoon. Piers is featured in the Astral Radiance print's illustration, who uses an Obstagoon in all games in which he appears as an opponent.
