#42 Persian - Jungle (base2)
Persian is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 70 HP, featured in the Jungle set from the Base series, released on June 16, 1999. It has no retreat cost and is depicted with a theme color of #cca26b. The card’s flavor text highlights its reputation as a fickle and difficult pet to raise despite its appealing fur. Persian’s weaknesses include a ×2 vulnerability to Fighting-type attacks, while it resists Psychic-type damage by 30. It possesses two attacks: Scratch, which costs two Colorless energy to deal 20 damage, and Pounce, requiring three Colorless energy to strike for 30 damage. The Pounce attack’s effect grants a defensive advantage by reducing damage if the Defending Pokémon attacks Persian during the next turn, though this effect ends if either Pokémon is benched. The card is numbered 42 and classified as Uncommon rarity. Artist Kagemaru Himeno designed the illustration for this entry.
