#13 Venomoth - Jungle (base2)
Venomoth is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a Fire weakness that deals double damage. Its primary attack, Venom Powder, costs two Grass energy and deals 10 damage, flipping a coin to potentially confuse and poison the defending Pokémon. The card includes a Pokémon Power ability called Shift, allowing it to change its type to match another Pokémon’s type during the player’s turn, provided it is not asleep, confused, or paralyzed. Venomoth resists Fighting-type attacks by 30, balancing its vulnerability to Fire. The card is part of the Base series, released in the Jungle set on June 16, 1999, and is illustrated by artist Ken Sugimori. Its flavor text describes color-coded scales that indicate the types of poison it carries. The card’s theme color is a muted green, reflecting its Grass typing and naturalistic design.
