What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, choose 1 of the Defending Pokémon. That Pokémon is now Poisoned. Put 3 damage counters instead of 1 on that Pokémon between turns. This power can't be used if Drapion is affected by a Special Condition.
Does 40 damage to 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) The Defending Pokémon can't retreat during your opponent's next turn.
Put this card onto your Active Drapion. Drapion LV.X can use any attack, Poké-Power, or Poké-Body from its previous level.

Where it came from
Drapion LV.X was released as part of the Platinum expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which debuted in early 2009. This set served as the introduction to the Platinum Series, centering on the titular mascot Pokémon and the mysterious Distortion World. As a Level-Up card, Drapion LV.X reflects the game's mechanics of the era, where players could place these cards atop their corresponding base forms to access enhanced abilities and higher hit points.
The card features artwork by Shizurow, a frequent contributor to the franchise who is known for a clean, bold aesthetic that emphasizes the intensity of the Pokémon. In the context of the 2009 competitive meta, Drapion LV.X was noted for its ability to discard opponent's energy cards, making it a disruptive force in gameplay. Like many high-rarity cards from the Platinum era, it is collected today for its distinct silver-bordered frame and its representative role in the transition between the Diamond & Pearl and HeartGold & SoulSilver eras.
