#5 Dark Dragonite - Team Rocket (base5)
Dark Dragonite is a Colorless-type Pokémon with 70 HP. It features the Pokémon Power ability "Summon Minions," which allows the player to search their deck for up to 2 Basic Pokémon and place them on their Bench when Dark Dragonite is played from their hand, then shuffle their deck. The card’s attack, "Giant Tail," requires 4 Colorless Energy and deals 70 damage, but it includes a 50% chance to have no effect if a coin flip results in tails. Dark Dragonite has a Fighting resistance of -30, making it less vulnerable to such attacks. The card’s flavor text references its moniker "The God of Destruction" and describes its massive weight being supported by its wings. Designed by artist Mitsuhiro Arita, it belongs to the Base series and was released as part of the Team Rocket set in 2000. The card’s theme color is a muted earth tone, reflecting its dark, dragon-like appearance.
