Collector Insights
Nidoran ♀ is a Grass-type Pokémon with 60 HP, featuring two distinct attacks. The first attack, Fury Swipes, requires one Grass energy and deals 10 damage multiplied by the number of heads from flipping three coins. The second attack, Call for Family, uses two Grass energy to search the deck for a Basic Pokémon named Nidoran ♂ or Nidoran ♀, placing it on the Bench and reshuffling the deck. This ability is restricted if the Bench is already full. The card is part of the Pokémon Jungle set, released on March 5, 1997, and is classified as a Common rarity. Its design is attributed to artist Ken Sugimori, and it aligns with the set’s thematic color scheme of #9ab253. The card emphasizes strategic resource management through its dual functionality, balancing direct damage with deck interaction. Its simplicity reflects the foundational mechanics of early Pokémon TCG gameplay.
