ClaydolDragons Exalted #64 Pokémon Card

Claydol is a Psychic/Ground-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III, evolving from Baltoy at level 36. This ancient, humanoid Pokémon is said to have been brought to life from a clay figurine by a mysterious ray of light thousands of years ago, a detail often found in its Pokédex entries across various games. Claydol is known for its ability to float and its multiple, often glowing, eyes. Its design is inspired by ancient clay dolls and dōgu figurines from Japanese prehistoric Jomon period, giving it a unique, somewhat mystical appearance. In the games, Claydol often appears in ruins or ancient sites, reinforcing its lore as an ancient artifact. Its Psychic typing grants it strong special attack capabilities, while its Ground typing provides good defensive utility and an immunity to Electric-type attacks. Claydol has seen some competitive play in various formats due to its unique typing and ability to set up hazards or act as a special attacker. In the anime, Claydol has appeared in several episodes, often depicted as a protector of ancient civilizations or as a powerful Pokémon owned by trainers, further cementing its role as a creature deeply connected to history and mystery within the Pokémon world. Its evolution line represents a journey from a simple, spinning top-like figure to a more complex, multi-eyed being, embodying the transformation of an ancient artifact into a living Pokémon.
