#56 Persian - Base Set 2 (base4)

Persian is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 70 HP, appearing in the Base Set 2 from 2000. It features 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 has a unique effect, reducing damage by 10 if the defending Pokémon attacks Persian during the next turn, though this effect ends if either Pokémon is benched. Persian resists Psychic-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fighting-type attacks multiplied by two. The card is illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno and carries a flavor text highlighting its difficult nature as a pet, despite its appealing fur. It holds a dex number of 53 and is classified as an Uncommon rarity. The card’s regulation mark is unspecified, and it does not require retreat cost for play.
