#17 Scyther - Base Set 2 (base4)
Scyther is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It features a unique attack called Swords Dance, which costs one Grass energy and grants its Slash attack double damage during the next turn. The Slash attack requires three Colorless energy and deals 30 damage. Scyther resists Fighting-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fire-type attacks with a ×2 multiplier. Its flavor text highlights its ninja-like agility and ability to create illusions of multiple copies. The card is part of the Base Set 2 series, released in February 2000. It is depicted as a Rare Holo card with no retreat cost. The artwork is attributed to artist Ken Sugimori.
