#31 Venomoth - Base Set 2 (base4)
Venomoth is a Grass-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It features the Shift ability, allowing it to change its type to any other Pokémon's type during its turn, provided it is not Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed. Its primary attack, Venom Powder, costs two Grass Energy and deals 10 damage, while also flipping a coin to potentially confuse and poison the defending Pokémon. Venomoth resists Fighting-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fire-type attacks with double damage. The card is part of the Base Set 2, released in February 2000, and is illustrated by artist Ken Sugimori. Its flavor text describes the dust-like scales on its wings as color-coded indicators for the types of poison it carries. Venomoth has no retreat cost, making it a straightforward play in gameplay. The card's theme color is a muted green, reflecting its Grass typing and natural aesthetic.
