Which deck it belongs in
This card fits well in decks focused on Grass Energy and status effects. It works best when supported by other cards that can keep it safe from Fire types.
- •High HP
- •Heavy damage
- •Status effect
- •Weak to Fire
- •Requires specific energy
- •Stage 2 evolution
Use this card when you can protect it from Fire attacks, as its high HP allows it to survive long enough for the Poison damage to add up.
Venusaur carries a large flower on its back which blooms when it is healthy and happy.
Remind your child to check for Poison counters or notes on the opponent's Pokemon, as this changes how damage is calculated each turn.
