Collector Insights

Erika's Venusaur is a Grass-type Pokémon with 90 HP, featuring a retreat cost of two Colorless Energy cards. It includes two attacks: "Growth" and "Wide Solarbeam." The "Growth" attack requires one Grass Energy and allows the player to flip a coin, potentially attaching up to two Grass Energy cards from their hand to Erika's Venusaur. The "Wide Solarbeam" attack demands four Grass Energy and deals 20 damage to each of up to two Benched Pokémon, disregarding their Weakness and Resistance. The card has a Fire-type weakness that multiplies damage by two. It was released in the Gym Challenge set on October 16, 2000, and is part of the Gym series. The card's artist is Ken Sugimori, and its theme color is a shade of green represented by the hexadecimal code #9daf67. This card serves as a strategic option for players focusing on Grass-type advantages in gameplay.
