Blastoise ex (Japanese: カメックスex Kamex ex) is a Water-type Stage 2 Pokémon-ex card. It is part of the EX FireRed & LeafGreen expansion.
Card text
When Pokémon-ex has been Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.
Energy Rain
エナジーレイン
As often as you like during your turn (before your attack), you may attach a 
Energy card from your hand to 1 of your Pokémon. Put 1 damage counter on that Pokémon. This power can't be used if Blastoise ex is affected by a Special Condition.

Hyper Whirlpool
はかいのうずしお
80
Flip a coin until you get tails. For each heads, your opponent discards an Energy card attached to the Defending Pokémon.
Trivia
- The effect of Hyper Whirlpool was later errata'd so that the player using the attack was the one who chose the Energy card to be discarded, not the player's opponent.
- Energy Rain is a retrained version of the Rain Dance Pokémon Power possessed by Base Set Blastoise, a power so strong that it spawned one of the most popular deck archetypes of the Base Set era.
- Incidentally, of the three final Evolutions of Kanto first partners made into Pokémon-ex in EX FireRed & LeafGreen, this is the only one without an attack roughly analogous to its Base Set counterpart, as well as the only one not to have two attacks.
Origin
Hyper Whirlpool is a variant of Whirlpool, a move in the Pokémon games, though Blastoise can only learn it via HM06 in Generation II and HM05 in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
