Collector Insights

Ariados is a Grass-type Pokémon with 60 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It appears in the Neo Genesis set, released as part of the Neo series on December 16, 2000. The card is numbered 27 and marked as Uncommon rarity. Its attacks include Spider Web, which costs one Grass energy and allows the player to flip a coin, preventing the defending Pokémon from retreating if heads is called. Poison Bite requires three Grass energy, dealing 20 damage and applying the Poisoned status to the defending Pokémon while removing damage counters based on the inflicted harm. The card’s flavor text describes Ariados as spinning string from both its mouth and rear, making it difficult to distinguish which end is which. It has no resistances but is weak to Fire-type attacks multiplied by two. The artwork was created by artist Ken Sugimori.

It spins string not only from its rear but also from its mouth. It's hard to tell which end is which.
