Gym Challenge / #47/132
Printed language: English · Pokémon
CARDEX BACKGROUND
Kakuna remains attached to a tree and hides beneath leaves while its body prepares to evolve. Its motionless silhouette is deceptive: the warmth of its shell reveals intense internal activity. Unable to flee on its own, it hardens its covering against predators. If pushed too far, a stinger can still poison an attacker. The Pokédex thus describes a period of transformation in which waiting means neither sleeping nor abandoning self-defence.
This account describes the species in the video games. It does not describe its Trainer’s history or that of this copy, and does not identify the depicted form or sex.Pokémon Omega Ruby states that Kakuna’s shell feels warm to the touch even though it remains almost motionless. Pokémon: Let’s Go, Pikachu! retains its defensive stinger. Its transformation therefore takes place beneath a covering that protects an active body.
Quoted source text is retained in the card’s printed language so this exact printing can be identified. The CarDex background above is translated into English.
Pokemon Power
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for an Evolution card named Koga's Beedrill and put it on Koga's Kakuna. (This counts as evolving Koga's Kakuna.) Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Koga's Kakuna is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.Cost: Grass
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. It now takes 20 Poison damage instead of 10 after each player's turn (even if it was already Poisoned).Versions reported by the source; identification for sales still needs verification.
