The card features the attack Frenzied Attack, which costs two Fighting energy and deals 40 damage. After resolving this attack, Dark Primeape becomes Confused, a status effect that persists until the end of the turn. The Pokémon Power ability Frenzy enhances its damage output by 30 if it deals damage while Confused, even to itself. Dark Primeape is weak to Psychic-type attacks, which deal double damage. The card was released in the Team Rocket set as card number 43, part of the Base series.

Although Primeapes have always been mean, lately they seem to be becoming even more vicious and frenzied.
