#54 Metapod - Base (base1)
Metapod is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It has a retreat cost of two Colorless energy and is weak to Fire, which deals double damage. The card features two attacks: Stiffen, which costs two Colorless energy and has a 50% chance to prevent all damage to Metapod during the opponent's next turn, and Stun Spore, which costs two Grass energy to deal 20 damage and may paralyze the defending Pokémon. Its flavor text highlights its vulnerability due to a soft shell exposing its tender body. The card was released in the Base set in January 1999 as a Common rarity. It is illustrated by artist Ken Sugimori. The card's theme color is a warm amber, reflecting its Grass-type identity.
