Trivia

  • Early English prints of the card mistakenly list the weight as length.
  • The Japanese "Snap" print has a camera graphic where an expansion symbol would usually be.
  • The text on the bottom right of the "Snap" print reads: "Best Photo Contest Winners Prize Card".

Origin

Leech Seed is a move in the Pokémon games that Bulbasaur can learn. 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.
