Collector Insights
Parasect is a Pokémon card featuring the Grass type with a base HP of 70. It was first released in the "Wind from the Sea" set on May 24, 2002, and is classified as a Uncommon rarity. The card is illustrated by artist Masako Yamashita and includes two distinct attacks. The first attack, Sleep Inducer, requires one Grass Energy to switch the Defending Pokémon with a Benched opponent's Pokémon, leaving the new Defending Pokémon Asleep. The second attack, Rapture Pollen, costs two Colorless Energy to deal 20 damage and introduces a coin flip mechanic, putting the Defending Pokémon to sleep on heads or removing two damage counters on tails. These abilities emphasize strategic positioning and risk-reward gameplay. The card's design reflects its role in manipulating battle dynamics through status effects and direct damage. Its inclusion in the set highlights Grass-type strategies during that era of the Pokémon TCG.
