Origin

Body Slam is a move in the Pokémon games that Snorlax can learn. Thick Skinned's Japanese name is that of Immunity, an Ability introduced in Generation III that Snorlax can learn; coincidentally, the Pokémon Power is similarly named to Snorlax's other Ability Thick Fat. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, whereas the Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
