Every Politoed card

The short version

Politoed has two printings in Pokémon TCG Pocket, across two expansions — the earliest in Wisdom of Sea and Sky and the most recent in Pulsing Aura. It is a Stage 2 Water-type Pokémon printed at between 130 and 140 HP, weak to Lightning, with a retreat cost of 1. Every printing is a Rare. The hardest to pull is the Rare from Wisdom of Sea and Sky, at about 1 in 138 packs, or 150 Pack Points to buy outright. Nine hunts in ten end inside 316 packs, which is about 5 months at the two free packs a day the game gives you. The printings come out of the Pulsing Aura and Lugia packs. The most recent is Politoed #035, from an expansion that shipped in April 2026. That printing attacks with Raid, which costs one Water energy and hits for 50+. If this Pokémon evolved from Poliwhirl during this turn, this attack does 50 more damage. The card’s own words: “It’s the leader of Poliwag and Poliwhirl. When Politoed roars, they all cower in fear.” It has been drawn by two artists.
