Oshawott (Japanese: ミジュマル Mijumaru) is a Water-type Basic Pokémon card. It was first released as one of the SWSH Black Star Promos.
Card text
Pokédex data (SWSH Promotional print)
It fights using the scalchop on its stomach. In response to an attack, it retaliates immediately by slashing.
お腹の ホタチで 戦う。 攻撃を 受け止めてから すかさず 切りつけて 反撃するのだ。
Pokédex data (Astral Radiance print)
This Pokémon from the Unova region uses the shell on its belly as a weapon to cut down its foes. Thus, I've conferred upon this shell the name "scalchop."
イッシュの地に 棲みし ポケモン。 腹の貝を 得物に 敵を 斬る。 ゆえに 貝の名 帆太刀と 命名す。
Release information
This card was released as a Holofoil SWSH Black Star Promo with artwork by kurumitsu and was available in the Collector Bundle from March 25, 2022 and the Spring 2022 Collector Chest from May 6, 2022. Initial print-runs were Mirror Holofoil, but Collector Chests started including Cosmos Holofoil variants by February 2023. In Japan, it was released as a Non Holofoil S-P Promotional card and was first distributed through elementary schools in late January 2022. The card was one of three S-P Promos that could be enclosed with Pokémon-themed OenNote notebooks, which also came with a card display frame featuring outlines of the Pokémon Legends: Arceus first partner Pokémon.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] It received a more general release as part of a third "Have Fun. Spring, Pokémon Card." campaign that began on March 25, 2022. During the campaign, customers who purchased any Pokémon TCG products at participating Pokémon Card Gym locations or eligible products at participating Pokémon Centers or Pokémon Stores were given a Promo Card Pack containing one of three S-P Promos. Customers were also given a "Have Fun. Spring, Pokémon Card." sticker with their purchase. The campaign ran for as long as stocks lasted and was limited to one per customer.[8] It was reprinted in the Astral Radiance expansion with different artwork by Saya Tsuruta, first released in the Japanese Time Gazer expansion.

Trivia

Customers at participating restaurants who purchased a Chicken with Golden Seafood and Rich Cheese set meal during the promotion period received a Promo Card Pack containing one of three S-P Promos with their order. This print is Non Holofoil and features the KFC logo in the bottom right corner of the artwork. Customers ordering the set between January 24 and 30, 2022 would also receive two Pokémon red envelopes with their order.[9]
