#121 Poké Ball - Base Set 2 (base4)
Poké Ball is a Trainer card from the Base Set 2, released in February 2000. Designed by artist Keiji Kinebuchi, it serves as a randomized card draw mechanism. The card’s rule involves flipping a coin to determine if a player can search their deck for a Basic Pokémon or Evolution card. If successful, the found card is revealed to the opponent before being added to the player’s hand. This action requires the player to shuffle their deck afterward, ensuring deck randomness is preserved. The card’s themecolor, #928075, reflects its neutral, functional design. As a Common rarity card, it is part of the Base series, which introduced foundational Pokémon TCG mechanics. Its simplicity and utility make it a staple for early-game strategy in competitive play.
