Description

Breloom, cataloged as card number 22 in the 2005 Pokémon Emerald set, represents a pivotal Grass-type evolution for collectors tracking the Shroomish line. The card, illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, is classified as Uncommon, making it a staple for builders looking to complete the base set without the scarcity hurdles of rarer variants. In terms of gameplay mechanics, this Breloom offers strategic versatility through its two distinct attacks. The Colorless Power Blow deals 10 damage plus an additional 10 damage for each Energy attached to Breloom, rewarding players who invest resources into the Pokémon. Alternatively, the GrassGrassColorless Body Slam attack deals 40 damage with the potential to Paralyze the Defending Pokémon if a coin flip results in heads. This combination of scalable damage and status effect potential highlights the design philosophy of the Emerald era, where card interactions became more complex and dynamic. For dedicated enthusiasts of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, securing this card is often a priority for those completing the Emerald collection. The set code EM and Pokédex number 286 further anchor its identity within the broader franchise history. Whether you are assembling a comprehensive set of all Emerald cards or focusing on Grass-type collections, this Breloom card provides a tangible connection to the 2005 release.
