Krookodile (66/108) from the Dark Explorers expansion of the Pokémon TCG is a striking and powerful Darkness-type Stage 2 Pokémon card that commands attention on the battlefield. With a formidable 150 HP, Krookodile stands as a resilient offensive threat capable of dominating late-game scenarios. Its menacing artwork, illustrated by 5ban Graphics, captures the intensity of this Intimidation Pokémon as it looms over its prey, perfectly reflecting its ruthless in-game abilities. As a Holo Rare card, it features a shimmering, eye-catching finish that makes it a prized addition to any collector’s binder or competitive deck.

This Krookodile boasts two devastating attacks: Dark Clamp and Bombast. Dark Clamp deals 60 damage and prevents the defending Pokémon from retreating during your opponent’s next turn, effectively locking them in place for a follow-up assault. Its second attack, Bombast, scales with your progress in the game—dealing 40 damage multiplied by the number of Prize cards you’ve already taken. This means the longer you’ve been ahead, the harder Krookodile can strike, making it a dynamic finisher in aggressive strategies. With a Retreat Cost of 3 and a Resistance to Fighting-type attacks (-20), it balances offense with moderate durability, though its weakness to Grass-type moves requires careful play.

Originally released on May 9, 2012, as part of the 52nd expansion of the Pokémon TCG, Dark Explorers brought a wave of Darkness-type powerhouses into the spotlight, and Krookodile remains one of its standout cards. Whether you're building a thematic dark-themed deck, seeking a nostalgic piece from the Black & White era, or adding to your curated collection, Krookodile (66/108) delivers both strategic value and visual appeal. Its presence in the game echoes its Pokédex lore: relentless, powerful, and utterly unwilling to let prey escape.
