#96 Tangela - Base Set 2 (base4)
Tangela is a Grass-type Pokémon with 50 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It appears in the Base Set 2, released on February 24, 2000, and is illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita. The card’s flavor text describes its body as covered in vine-like structures resembling seaweed, which tremble as it moves. Tangela has two attacks: Bind, which costs one Grass and one Colorless energy to deal 20 damage and potentially paralyze the defending Pokémon, and Poisonpowder, requiring three Grass energy to deal 20 damage and poison the opponent’s active Pokémon. The card has no resistances and is weak to Fire-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its themecolor is a muted green, matching its Grass typing. Tangela is classified as a Common rarity card in the Base series.
