Grovyle

Description

The 2006 Pokémon POP Series 4 Grovyle (Card 7) stands as a distinct entry for trainers building their collections. As an Uncommon Stage 1 Grass-type card, it represents the evolution from Treecko, offering a classic gameplay option for enthusiasts. Illustrated by Mitsuhiro Arita, this card captures the strategic depth of the early Generation 3 era. In gameplay, Grovyle brings a versatile toolkit to the battlefield. It features 70 HP and a modest retreat cost of one Colorless energy. Its attacks include Colorless Quick Attack, which allows players to flip a coin for potential bonus damage, and GrassColorless Blot, a strategic move that removes two damage counters to keep the Pokémon in play longer. This balance of offense and recovery makes it a familiar sight in casual play. For collectors, the POP Series 4 release holds a specific place in Pokémon TCG history. These promotional sets were distributed through various channels, making them distinct from standard booster packs. Completing the POP Series 4 checklist requires tracking down these unique promotional cards, including this Grovyle variant.
