Release information

This card was included in the English Jungle expansion as both a Holofoil and Non Holofoil card, first released in the Japanese Pokémon Jungle expansion as only a Holofoil card. The Non Holofoil print of this card was later reprinted in the English Base Set 2 expansion.

Trivia

  • Although this Pokémon is level 28, Venonat does not evolve into Venomoth until level 31.
  • Early prints of the Unlimited Holofoil version were printed without the Jungle set symbol. This error was corrected later in the print run.

Origin

Shift's and Venom Powder's Japanese names are that of Color Change and Shield Dust, respectively, Abilities later introduced in the Generation III Pokémon games; Venomoth can have Shield Dust but cannot have Color Change. This card's English Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Red and Blue, though it is slightly reworded. The Japanese entry comes from Pokémon Red and Green.
