Collector Insights

Paras is a Grass-type Pokémon with 50 HP and a Fire weakness ×2. It features two attacks: "Spore," which uses one Colorless Energy to put the defending Pokémon to sleep, and "Spore Evolution," requiring one Grass and one Colorless Energy to search the deck for a card that evolves from Paras, attach it to Paras, and shuffle the deck afterward. The card has a retreat cost of one Colorless Energy and is part of the E-Card series released in the Aquapolis set on January 15, 2003. Artist Miki Tanaka designed the card, which is classified as Common rarity. Its type and retreat cost align with standard Grass Pokémon mechanics, while the evolution ability provides a strategic gameplay option. The card’s design reflects its role in facilitating evolutionary plays within the game’s ruleset. It does not include any resistances or additional abilities beyond its listed attacks and retreat cost.
