## Flatwoods Monster

1st Edition Non-Holo Printing

**Flatwoods Monster** is a Cosmic-type Beastie Page from the Cryptid Nation core set, featuring the Beastie known as Flatwoods Monster.

It was available in Cryptid Nation’s Kickstarter, 1st and 2nd Edition releases, previewed as a Sample Card, and reprinted with different art as part of Nightfall’s Reptoid Ruler Theme Deck, Pin Club’s Pin Club x Cryptid Nation Mystery Collection, Steve Aoki’s HiROQUEST: GENESIS and the Genesis NFT Promo mini sets.

## Page Text

The following is the text as it appears on the physical card at its time of printing, including all 4th Wall Effects, Effects/Powers, and Attacks. This text has since been altered by errata.

* **Static Effect:** When Flatwoods Monster enters the Arena all of target Caster’s Beasties in the Arena are inflicted with [Poison](1).
* **Power:** PAIN ABDUCTION: Fatigue Flatwoods Monster to remove an Effect Indicator from target Beastie. Flatwoods Monster gains +25 LP and its Attacks gain +25 Damage for every Effect Indicator removed.
* **Attack:** METEORITE BLAST: 10 Damage [Spirit] - Gains +100 Damage when there is an active meteor shower within 50 miles of the Arena.

### Flavour Text

*“Found perched upon a tree despite its tremendous size, gazing upon this Alien Beastie results in feeling ill. It came to our planet rising atop a meteor.”*

## Errata

The following is official errata added to the Official MetaZoo Rules Index from the MetaZoo Research & Development team. It is considered the correct version of the Flatwoods Monster Page that all Casters should use when playing.

* **Original Text:** Power: Pain Abduction - Fatigue Flatwoods Monster to remove an Effect Indicator from target Beastie. Flatwoods Monster gains +25 LP and its Attacks gain +25 Damage for every Effect Indicator removed.
* **Corrected Text:** Power: Pain Abduction - Remove a Status Effect Indicator from target Beastie. If you do, Flatwoods Monster gains +25 LP and +25 Damage.[citation needed]

## Clarifications & Rulings

The following are rulings and clarifications added to the Official MetaZoo Rules Index from the MetaZoo Research & Development team. They are taken from questions posed by Casters and MetaZoologists concerning the play and usage of this Page.

### Clarifications

* **Effect:** “When Flatwoods Monster enters the Arena all target Caster’s Beasties in the arena are inflected with [Poison](1).”
	+ **Clarification Effect:** ENTER [citation needed]

### Rulings

* **Question:** *If I play Meteor Shower Terra with Flatwoods Monster in the Arena does Flatwoods gain a bonus of +200 Damage on his Attack Meteorite Blast?*
	+ **Answer:** No, the Terra will only trigger the Terra Bonus on Flatwoods Monster increasing the Damage by +100 Damage. The +100 from the Attack Effect will only occur if you are within a 50 mile radius of an active meteor shower happening.[citation needed]
