Trivia

Although this Pokémon is level 26, Slowpoke does not evolve into Slowbro until level 37.
Slowbro's species name is mislabeled as "Hermitcrab Pokémon," while its actual species name is the "Hermit Crab Pokémon."

Origin

Psyshock's Japanese name is that of Confusion, a move in the Pokémon games that Slowbro can learn. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
