Flip a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing.

Where it came from
The Caterpie card from the Burning Shadows expansion was released by The Pokémon Company International in August 2017. As part of the Sun & Moon series, this set introduced new mechanics and updated art styles to the Trading Card Game, building on the tropical aesthetic of the Alola region introduced in the seventh generation of video games.
The card features artwork by illustrator Kouki Saitou, who has contributed extensively to the franchise since the early 2000s. Saitou’s depiction focuses on a vibrant, naturalistic portrayal of the caterpillar-like creature, emphasizing clean lines and a bright color palette that aligns with the accessible, family-friendly design language consistent across common-rarity cards in the set.
