Collector Insights
Spinarak is a Pokémon card featuring artwork by Ken Sugimori, part of the "Gold, Silver, to a New World..." set released in December 1999. This Common rarity card holds the number 4 and is associated with a theme color of #929c47. The card has 40 HP and includes two attacks. The first, "Scary Face," requires one Colorless Energy and involves flipping a coin; if heads, the defending Pokémon cannot attack or retreat for the next turn. The second attack, "String Shot," uses one Grass Energy to deal 10 damage and has a 50% chance to paralyze the defending Pokémon. Both attacks emphasize strategic disruption through probabilistic effects. The card's design and mechanics reflect its role in early Generation I Pokémon TCG gameplay. Its simplicity and cost efficiency make it a foundational entry in the series.
