Its Ability

Harvest Bounty

Once during your turn (before your attack), if you attach an Energy card to your Active Pokémon as part of your turn, you may attach an additional Energy card to that Pokémon at the same time. This power can't be used if Venusaur is affected by a Special Condition.

Its attacks

Body Slam

40

Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

  1. A strength

    100 HP. Only 4 cards in Expedition Base Set carry more.

  2. A strength

    It has an Ability, Harvest Bounty. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.

  4. Keep in mind

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Ivysaur to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fire ×2. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 816 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

Who plays it

None of the tournament lists we have read mentions this card. That happens with a card that has just come out, or one players have not tried yet.
