What it does
During your opponent's next turn, whenever your opponent's attack damages Kakuna (even if Kakuna is Knocked Out), your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Poisoned and Kakuna does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
Although it is a cocoon, it can move a little. It can extend its poison barb if it is attacked.

Where it came from
Released in the year 2001, the Neo Discovery expansion served as the second installment in the Neo series for the Pokémon Trading Card Game, designed to introduce players to the Johto region as depicted in the Gold and Silver video games. This set was notable for debuting the 'Unown' alphabet cards and featuring an aesthetic shift that leaned heavily into the mysterious, ancient atmosphere of the Ruin of Alph, transitioning away from the original Base Set designs.
The Kakuna card, numbered 41/75, features artwork by illustrator Atsuko Nishida. Nishida, a pivotal figure in Pokémon design, intended to emphasize the creature's stationary, cocooned state within a natural, slightly ominous forest setting. Upon its release, the set was received as a welcome expansion that successfully bridged the mechanical gap between the early base sets and the more complex evolutions of the later Neo entries.
