What it does
Snorlax can't become Asleep, Confused, Paralyzed, or Poisoned. This power can't be used if Snorlax is already Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed.
Very lazy. Just eats and sleeps. As its rotund bulk builds, it becomes steadily more slothful.

Where it came from
Released in early 2000, Base Set 2 was designed as a bridge for players and collectors in the West, consolidating cards from the original Base Set and the Jungle expansion. This re-release allowed newer players to access cards that had become difficult to find as the franchise experienced its initial explosion in popularity. It is distinguishable from the original prints by the presence of a small, two-diamond symbol located to the right of the artwork, signifying its place within this compilation set.
The Snorlax card, numbered 30/130, features the iconic illustration by Ken Sugimori, the primary character designer for the Pokémon franchise. Sugimori's work consistently aimed for a clean, approachable aesthetic that captured the creature's personality—in this case, Snorlax’s hallmark lethargy. While the card did not introduce new mechanics compared to its Jungle set predecessor, it remains a nostalgic touchstone for collectors who value the classic Sugimori art style that defined the early era of the trading card game.
