About this card
"On rare occasions, some have been found as fossils which they became while hiding on the ocean floor."

Treat the new Kabuto as a Basic Pokémon. This power can't be used if Kabuto is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed (or if your Bench is full).

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Kabuto is real?
Kabuto is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
