Description
Ariados #20 from the 2007 Mysterious Treasures expansion represents a pivotal Stage 1 evolution in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Evolving from Spinarak, this Grass-type Pokémon brings strategic depth with its Sticky ability, which increases the Retreat Cost for all other Pokémon by one Colorless energy. This unique mechanic forces opponents to make difficult decisions regarding board positioning and energy management. The card features the Offensive Needle attack, allowing players to flip a coin for either Poison or Paralysis status conditions, adding an element of unpredictability to gameplay. Collectors often seek this card to complete base sets or for its nostalgic value within the early generations of the TCG. Whether you are building a comprehensive collection or hunting for specific evolution lines, Ariados #20 remains a notable piece of Pokémon card history. The Mysterious Treasures set continues to attract attention for its distinct card frames and gameplay mechanics that defined that era of the hobby.
