The Pokémon Great Encounters Cacturne card, catalog number 34, stands as a staple for collectors focusing on the 2008 expansion set. As an Uncommon rarity, this Stage 1 Darkness-type Pokémon offers a distinct tactical profile within the trading card game framework. Evolving from Cacnea, the card features a base HP of 80 and a retreat cost of 1, providing flexibility during gameplay scenarios. The card’s abilities are defined by two primary attacks. Pin Missile allows players to flip three coins, dealing 20 damage for each head landed. Needle Arm delivers 50 damage plus an additional 20 if the Defending Pokémon already has damage counters, making it a potent option in specific matchups. Collectors often seek this release to complete the Great Encounters subset or to build decks centered around Darkness-type strategies. The card’s Pokédex number 332 identifies it within the broader creature database, adding depth to lore-focused collections. Whether for competitive play or cataloging purposes, the Great Encounters Cacturne card represents a key piece of the 2008 Pokémon era. This product is a fundamental component for anyone interested in the history and mechanics of the Pokémon TCG during this period.
