===Attacks===
Prior to the introduction of the {{TCG|Modified format}}, this card ran rampant in decks mainly because of the ability to do an average of {{tt|80 damage|a full 6-Pokémon Bench and flipping an average of 3 heads, plus 10 damage for each of the two Darkness Energy Special Energy cards}} and a maximum of {{tt|140 damage|if all 6 aforementioned coins land heads}} per turn as early as the second turn provided a deck's setup went smoothly, combined with its zero Retreat Cost and no type weaknesses. In comparison, the next strongest 2-Energy attack available with minimal drawbacks was Base Set {{TCG ID|Base Set|Electabuzz|20}}, which dealt 30 damage or 40 on a coin flip. When the first {{TCG|Modified format}} ({{TCG|Team Rocket}} on) came into play [[2001-02 Modified format (TCG)|in 2001]], this Sneasel was specifically singled out and banned from the format. Later joined by {{TCG ID|Neo Genesis|Slowking|14}}, it would remain banned from the Modified format until the Neo Genesis set was [[Rotation (TCG)|rotated out]] of the format in the second rotation.

Trivia

Prior to the introduction of the Modified format, this card ran rampant in decks mainly because of the ability to do an average of 80 damage and a maximum of 140 damage per turn as early as the second turn provided a deck's setup went smoothly, combined with its zero Retreat Cost and no type weaknesses. In comparison, the next strongest 2-Energy attack available with minimal drawbacks was Base Set Electabuzz, which dealt 30 damage or 40 on a coin flip. When the first Modified format (Team Rocket on) came into play in 2001, this Sneasel was specifically singled out and banned from the format. Later joined by Slowking, it would remain banned from the Modified format until the Neo Genesis set was rotated out of the format in the second rotation.

A Sneasel with almost the same artwork was featured in the HS Undaunted expansion, with illustration by Aya Kusube, instead of Ken Sugimori.

Origin

Fury Swipes and Beat Up are both moves in the Pokémon games that Sneasel can learn. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Gold.
