Collector Insights

Cottonee is a Grass-type Pokémon from the Black & White series, featured in the Emerging Powers set released in 2011. It has 40 HP and requires one Colorless energy to retreat. The card includes a single attack named Absorb, which costs one Grass energy and deals 10 damage while healing 10 damage to the defending Pokémon. Cottonee is weak to Fire attacks, which deal double damage, but it resists Water-type attacks by 20%. The flavor text describes its tendency to seek shelter under trees during rainy weather, reflecting its adaptability to changing conditions. Artist Atsuko Nishida designed the card, capturing the Pokémon’s lightweight, windborne nature. As a Common rarity card, it offers a straightforward gameplay option with its healing ability and moderate stats.

They go wherever the wind takes them. On rainy days, their bodies are heavier, so they take shelter beneath big trees.
