Skorupi
Oracle Text
Attack Poison Sting: Your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Poisoned.
Attack Slashing Claw (50)
Card Details
Character Background
Skorupi in Diamond & Pearl is a neat little tempo piece that plays like a nuisance more than a finisher: as a Basic Psychic Pokémon, it fits best in a control or disruption shell that wants to keep the opponent off balance while building up a stronger attacker behind it. Poison Sting gives you a chance to force Poisoned status early, which is especially annoying when paired with effects that punish status conditions or slowly chip damage over multiple turns. Pin Missile is swingy, but in the right deck it can convert a low-commitment Basic into respectable damage spikes, so it rewards lists that value pressure without heavy Energy investment. A practical tip is to pair Skorupi with Poison support and damage counters payoffs, since even failed coin flips can still create tempo by forcing awkward switches or healing decisions. It is best treated as an early-game annoyance that buys time for your main plan.
