What it does
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Confused. If tails, the Defending Pokémon is now Asleep.
Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 20 damage plus 10 more damage and, until the end of your next turn, as long as Gloom is your Active Pokémon, the Defending Pokémon can't retreat, and if the effect of an attack, Pokémon Power, or Trainer card would change that player's Active Pokémon, that part of the effect does nothing. If tails, this attack does 20 damage.
What appears to be drool is actually sweet honey. It is very sticky and clings stubbornly if touched.

Where it came from
Gloom 36/111 was released in 2000 as part of the Neo Genesis expansion, the first set in the Pokémon Trading Card Game to introduce Generation II creatures from the Johto region. Published by Wizards of the Coast, this set was highly anticipated as it expanded the mechanical depth of the game by introducing new energy types and baby Pokémon, marking a significant transition point for players who had been accustomed to the original Base Set lineup.
The card features artwork by Kagemaru Himeno, one of the most prolific and recognizable artists in the early history of the Pokémon TCG. Himeno employed her signature soft, illustrative style to depict Gloom in a serene, nature-focused environment, leaning into the character's grass-type classification. While not a chase card, the Neo Genesis uncommon cards are well-regarded by collectors for their nostalgic design and the pivotal role the set played in sustaining the franchise's momentum at the turn of the millennium.
