#29 Venomoth - Jungle (base2)

Venomoth is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featuring a resistance to Fighting-type attacks and a weakness to Fire-type moves. Its ability, Shift, allows it to change its type to match another Pokémon in play during the player’s turn, provided the target is not Colorless and Venomoth is not asleep, confused, or paralyzed. The card’s attack, Venom Powder, costs two Grass Energy and deals 10 damage, flipping a coin to potentially confuse and poison the defending Pokémon. Venomoth’s design incorporates a theme of toxic adaptation, as suggested by its flavor text describing dust-like scales that indicate the types of poison it possesses. The card is part of the Base set, released in June 1999, and is featured in the Jungle series. It is numbered 29 and classified as a Rare card, with artwork by Ken Sugimori. The card’s thematic color, matching its Grass type, is a shade of green (#97a958).
