Card text

Flip a coin. If heads, choose 1 of your Pokémon (excluding Pokémon-ex). Remove all Special Conditions and 6 damage counters from that Pokémon (all if there are less than 6).

Release information

This card was reprinted in the EX FireRed & LeafGreen set. That print changed the period at the end of the first sentence into a comma, added the word "and" after the new comma, and lowercased what had been the first word of the second sentence.

The card was reprinted again in the Platinum set with new artwork by the same artist. This print removes the "(excluding Pokémon-ex)" clause from the effect, widening the range of Pokémon the card can be attached to.

Trivia

• Life Herb is the first Trainer card to appear in two consecutive English-language sets, and would remain the only one until Bebe's Search and Night Maintenance appeared consecutively in Mysterious Treasures and Secret Wonders.

Origin

This card is based on a Revival Herb, a herbal medicine in the Pokémon games that revives a fainted Pokémon to full HP.
