Collector Insights

Chikorita is a Grass-type Pokémon with 40 HP, illustrated by artist Naoyo Kimura. It appears in the set "Gold, Silver, to a New World..." released on December 10, 1999, as card number 2 with a Common rarity. The card features a theme color of #989a4b. Chikorita has two attacks: Tackle, which costs one Colorless energy and deals 10 damage, and Deflector, which requires one Grass energy. Deflector’s effect reduces damage taken by half (rounded down to the nearest 10) during the opponent’s next turn, provided Chikorita is damaged. The card’s flavor text emphasizes defensive resilience, highlighting its ability to mitigate incoming damage. This version of Chikorita lacks any additional abilities or special conditions beyond its listed attacks and defensive trait. Its design and mechanics align with the foundational strategies of early Pokémon TCG iterations.
