What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may put Snorlax from your hand onto Munchlax (this counts as evolving Munchlax) and remove all damage counters from Munchlax.
Discard 2 cards from your hand. (If you can't discard 2 cards, this attack does nothing.) Flip 2 coins. This attack does 30 damage times the number of heads.
It wolfs down its weight in food once a day, swallowing food whole with almost no chewing.

Where it came from
The Munchlax card was released in 2007 as part of the Diamond & Pearl base set, which marked the debut of the fourth generation of Pokémon in the trading card game. Munchlax, first introduced in the Generation III video games, served as a bridge between generations and was featured here to highlight the expanded Pokédex. The card was produced during a period when the game was transitioning to new mechanics, including the introduction of Pokémon LV.X and updated card templates.
This specific illustration was created by artist Atsuko Nishida, who is well known for her foundational work on the Pokémon franchise, including the original design of Pikachu. Her style for this card captures the character's gluttonous nature through a soft, approachable aesthetic that remains consistent with the whimsical tone of the early Diamond & Pearl era. Upon its release, the card was widely appreciated by collectors for its status as a rare colorless-type Pokémon, fitting into many decks as a reliable utility choice.
