Snivy

Description

Released in 2011 as part of the Pokémon Black & White series, this Snivy card (number 2) represents the first Grass-type starter introduced in Generation V. Created by artist 5ban Graphics, the card serves as a foundational entry for collectors assembling the Black & White (BLW) set. As a Basic Pokémon with 60 HP, Snivy utilizes the GrassColorless Leaf Blade attack, which allows players to flip a coin to potentially deal an additional 30 damage if the result is heads. This straightforward mechanic reflects the accessible design philosophy of the era, making it a staple for new and veteran players alike. The card’s retreat cost of just 1 energy ensures it can easily switch positions during gameplay, maintaining strategic flexibility. For investors and hobbyists, this release captures the excitement surrounding the introduction of new Pokémon types and mechanics. Completing the Black & White collection often begins with these early-numbered cards, making this release a key component for serious set builders. The Pokémon TCG continues to celebrate these early generations, and owning a piece of the BLW expansion allows collectors to connect with the history of the franchise. Whether you are focused on completing a full set or seeking a specific character for your collection, this Snivy card remains a relevant and sought-after item among enthusiasts.
