#47 Kakuna - Base Set 2 (base4)
Kakuna is a Grass-type Pokémon with 80 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It has no resistances and is weak to Fire, which deals double damage. The card’s artwork is by Keiji Kinebuchi, and it belongs to the Base Set 2 series, released in February 2000. Kakuna has two attacks: Stiffen, which costs two Colorless energy and prevents all damage to the defending Pokémon during the opponent’s next turn if a coin flip results in heads, and Poisonpowder, a Grass-type attack that costs two Grass energy, deals 20 damage, and has a 50% chance to poison the defending Pokémon. The card’s flavor text describes Kakuna as nearly immobile, relying on its hardened shell for protection against predators. Its regulation mark is unspecified, and it has a rarity of Uncommon. The card’s theme color is a muted earth tone, reflecting its Grass-type identity.
