Description
Released in 2013, the Pokémon Kalos Starter Set presents Weedle as its inaugural card, numbered 1. This Basic Grass-type creature brings 40 HP to the battlefield, making it a foundational piece for early-game strategies in the Pokémon Trading Card Game.

With a modest retreat cost of 1, Weedle offers flexibility in positioning during matches. For collectors, this card represents the entry point into the Kalos region era of the TCG. Designed by Akira Komayama, the card captures the essence of this common Bug-type Pokémon. It serves as a key component for those looking to complete the Kalos Starter Set or build nostalgic decks reflecting the 2013 release. The straightforward mechanics and recognizable character make it a staple for both casual play and set completionists. Whether you are assembling a comprehensive collection of Pokémon cards or focusing on specific regional sets, this Weedle card provides a tangible link to the game's history.
