What it does
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon can't attack Cyndaquil during your opponent's next turn. (Benching or evolving either Pokémon ends this effect.)
This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness, Resistance, Pokémon Powers, or any other effects on the Defending Pokémon.
It usually stays hunched over. If it is angry or surprised, it shoots flames out of its back.

Where it came from
Cyndaquil #56/111 was released as part of the Neo Genesis expansion, which launched in the year 2000 as the inaugural set of the second generation of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. This set introduced players to the Johto region, marking a significant expansion of the franchise following the initial success of the Base Set and subsequent expansions based on the Kanto region. The card was designed to introduce the Fire-type starter Pokémon to the card game mechanics, aligning with the release of the Pokémon Gold and Silver video games.
The card features the signature illustrative style of artist Atsuko Nishida, who was a key character designer for the Pokémon franchise. Nishida’s work is noted for capturing the endearing and recognizable personality of the creature while maintaining the clean, minimalist aesthetic characteristic of early Pokémon TCG production. Upon its release, the card was widely distributed in booster packs, serving as a staple common card that helped define the visual identity of the Neo-era cards.
