What this card does

Meganium ex has 150 HP to withstand hits.

It can heal one damage counter and add a Grass Energy card each turn.

It attacks for 90 damage but must discard its own energy.

Signature ability

Nurture and Heal

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may attach a Grass Energy card from your hand to 1 of your Pokémon. If you do, remove 1 damage counter from that Pokémon. This power can't be used if Meganium ex is affected by a Special Condition.

The Nurture and Heal ability lets you repair your Meganium ex by attaching a Grass Energy from your hand. This keeps it on the field longer while simultaneously weakening the opponent through poison.
