Graveler 37/62 Pokémon Fossil Raw

Graveler (37/62) from the Fossil expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game is a classic Stage 1 Fighting-type card that holds a special place in the hearts of collectors and players alike. First released in 1999 as part of the third Pokémon TCG expansion, this 1st Edition card stands out with its nostalgic design and strategic gameplay value. Illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno, Graveler evolves from Geodude and boasts 60 HP, making it a durable presence on the battlefield. Its Uncommon rarity and inclusion in the highly sought-after Fossil set—featuring legendary Pokémon like Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres—add to its enduring appeal.

Strategically, Graveler offers two distinct attacks: Harden and Rock Throw. The Harden ability provides a defensive edge by preventing damage of 30 or less during your opponent’s next turn, after applying Weakness and Resistance, making it a tactical buffer against weaker attacks. Meanwhile, Rock Throw delivers a solid 40 damage at the cost of one Fighting and one Colorless energy, allowing for reliable offensive play. With a retreat cost of two Colorless energy and a Weakness to Grass-type attacks, Graveler balances risk and resilience, fitting well into mid-game strategies or as a support Pokémon in energy-efficient decks.
