Every Tentacool card

The short version

Tentacool has three printings in Pokémon TCG Pocket, across three expansions — the earliest in Genetic Apex and the most recent in Secluded Springs. It is a Basic Water-type Pokémon printed at between 60 and 70 HP, weak to Lightning, with a retreat cost of 1. Every printing is a Common. A Common has no rare-slot rate to quote — it fills the slots every pack is guaranteed to have, so opening the right expansion at all will turn one up. The printings come out of the Secluded, Shining and Mewtwo packs. The most recent is Tentacool #015, from an expansion that shipped in August 2025. That printing attacks with Poison Sting for 20. The card’s own words: “Tentacool is not a particularly strong swimmer. It drifts across the surface of shallow seas as it searches for prey.” It has been drawn by three artists.
