Key Fact
Description
This is a basic Pokemon card featuring Hippopotas, a ground-type Pokemon known for its sturdy build and desert habitat. The card has 90 HP and an attack called 'Push Down' that deals 10 damage. It is from the Scarlet & Violet set, indicated by the set symbol. The artwork depicts Hippopotas in a sandy, rocky environment, highlighting its natural camouflage and resilience.
History
Hippopotas, introduced in Generation IV, is based on the hippopotamus and is known for its ability to burrow in sand. Its evolutionary line includes Hippowdon, a powerful defensive Pokemon. This particular card, from the 2025 Scarlet & Violet expansion, continues the tradition of showcasing the diverse creature roster within the Pokemon Trading Card Game, appealing to collectors and players alike.
Facts
Hippopotas's Pokédex entry states it shrouds itself in sand to ward off germs and travels easily through desert sands. Its weakness to Water-type attacks is a common trait among Ground-type Pokemon, while its resistance to Electric-type attacks is an advantage. The three retreat symbols suggest a moderate energy cost to move it from the active battle.
Value Fact
As a common basic Pokemon from a recent set, Hippopotas cards typically have a low market value, often ranging from a few cents to a dollar. Demand is driven by players seeking to complete sets or build decks featuring its evolutionary line. Graded versions or rare variants could command higher prices, but this standard version is primarily for collection or gameplay.
