Ability ⇢ Le Parfum
When you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon, you may search your deck for any card and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward.
{G}{C} → Squeeze : 30+
Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 20 more damage and the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed.

Each of its hands contains different toxins, but both hands can jab with near-fatal power.

Anyone going to run as a consistency booster?
coolestman22
I think this might decrease the consistency, actually.
feyblade
In limited, it increases consistency due to the slower pace of the format and benefits from sharing a set with devolution spray.
In modified , it gets really hairy, and such “will this help my deck” questions require some pretty hard number crunching to answer (definitely out of place in a card game marketed to kids…). I would not advise this in modified.
In unlimited, you could theoretically do something nasty with this , devolution spray,and broken time space, but you have better things to do
feyblade
This is like a power creep’d Froslass (it even shares its status as a pretty stage 1 Pokémon), but that was hit-or-miss at the time of its printing. I think the concept of a consistency booster that requires an evolution to get pulled off is a bit too unstable for this to be dominant, but a tutor is a tutor.

10 HP more? Not much power creep.
feyblade
Well, it has to do with the fact that its attack averages 40 damage with a 50% chance of paralysis, as opposed to something that doesn’t work at all without stadiums

Certainly a fun card to run with Victini. Will work well with the upcoming Poison Trainers. :)

Super good ability.
Was this card played?
SupaCrow
I can’t speak for when it was standard legal, but in Gym Leader Challenge format, it’s a highly played card for grass decks. Andrew Mahone (Tricky Gym on Youtube) popularized it for his format, and now it’s selling for $40 minimum after not being with nearly that much months ago.
Sam
Dear god I dont think Andrew realized what he was doing with GLC. This card is now selling for 60$!!!!

I wonder what other cards have been affected by GLC? Also now I have to check my LGS’s bulk bin to try and find a copy
