Collector Insights

Beautifly is a Grass-type Pokémon with 120 HP, featuring a unique attack set that responds to Energy attachments. Its primary attack, Colorful Powder, costs one Grass Energy and deals 20+ damage, with effects escalating based on the number of Energy attached: Poisoned for two or fewer, Burned and Poisoned for three, and additional damage plus status conditions for four or more. The secondary attack, Silver Scale, also costs one Grass Energy and deals 30 damage, but its base damage increases to 60 if the Defending Pokémon has Resistance. Beautifly has a Fighting resistance of -20 and a Lightning weakness of +30, making it vulnerable to certain types. The card’s flavor text describes it as aggressive, jabbing with its long mouth when disturbed while collecting pollen. Artist Suwama Chiaki designed the card, which was released in the Platinum set on February 11, 2009. As a Rare card, it is part of the Platinum series and has no retreat cost, allowing it to be played without requiring Energy to retreat. Its strategic versatility stems from its ability to alter damage output and apply multiple status effects based on game state.

Despite its looks, it is aggressive. It jabs with its long, thin mouth if disturbed while collecting pollen.
