Collector Insights

Dark Persian is a Colorless-type Pokémon from the Base series, released as part of the Wizards Black Star Promos set in 1999. It has an HP of 60 and a retreat cost of zero, making it a straightforward play. The card features two attacks: Tempt, which costs one Colorless energy and allows the player to switch a Benched Pokémon with the Defending one if a coin flip results in heads, and Poison Claws, which requires two Colorless energy to deal 10 damage and has a 50% chance to poison the defending Pokémon. Dark Persian resists Psychic-type attacks by 30 and is weak to Fighting-type moves with double damage. Its flavor text highlights its appeal to women due to its fur and its association with a Rocket leader’s pet. The card is marked as a Promo rarity and is illustrated by Ken Sugimori. The card’s theme color is a warm golden hue, reflecting its design aesthetic.

Popular with women because of its beautiful fur. The leader of the Rockets keeps one as a pet.
