Collector Insights

Amoonguss is a Grass-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless energy. It appears in the Black & White series, part of the Next Destinies set released on February 8, 2012. The card's ability, Sporprise, allows the player to evolve one of their Pokémon when playing Amoonguss from their hand, causing the opponent's Active Pokémon to become Confused and Poisoned. Its primary attack, Rising Lunge, requires one Grass and one Colorless energy to deal 20+ damage, with an additional 30 damage on a successful coin flip. Amoonguss has a Water resistance of -20, reducing damage from Water-type attacks, but is weak to Fire, taking double damage from such attacks. The card's flavor text describes it as luring prey with rhythmic movements resembling Poké Balls. Its design is attributed to artist Kouki Saitou, and it is classified as a Rare card in the game.

It lures prey close by dancing and waving its arm caps, which resemble Poké Balls, in a swaying motion.
