What it does
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may change the type of Venomoth to the type of any other Pokémon in play other than Colorless. This power can't be used if Venomoth is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Confused and Poisoned.
The dust-like scales covering its wings are color coded to indicate the kinds of poison it has.

Where it came from
The Venomoth card was released in 1999 as part of the Jungle expansion, the first major set to follow the original Base Set of the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Designed to expand the roster of available creatures, the set introduced many second-generation-adjacent Pokémon from the Kanto region. The Venomoth illustration was created by artist Kagemaru Himeno, a central figure in the game's early visual identity, who focused on capturing the creature's eerie, nocturnal aesthetic through soft, painterly textures that defined the set's unique look.
Upon its release, the card was classified as a Rare within the 64-card Jungle set. Collectors and players at the time valued the card for its status as a Stage 1 evolution, which provided tactical utility in Grass-type decks. While it did not reach the iconic status of the set’s holographic chase cards, it remains a nostalgic touchstone for early enthusiasts who remember the transition from the initial core collection to the broader world-building initiatives of the Jungle expansion.
