What this card does

It has 220 HP to withstand heavy hits.

It can heal itself by the same amount of damage it deals with Swallow.

It can deal massive damage with Falling Down but falls asleep afterwards.

Signature attack

Falling Down

This Pokémon is now Asleep. (170 damage)

The attack Swallow allows Snorlax V to stay in play longer by healing itself for every 60 damage it inflicts. This makes it a durable defender that can recover from battle damage without needing extra support cards.
