Weedle is a Basic Grass Pokémon with 40 HP. The card lists level 14. In the Pokédex this is Weedle (#013), generation 1 (Kanto). The card lists Kakuna, Kakuna (#014) under evolves to.

Miki Tanaka illustrated this card. The same name is on 192 other cards in the catalog.

Weedle (#013) has 25 other cards in the catalog. Those other cards are in 23 sets. The other printings with a release date run from 1999 to 2026. The earliest other card is Weedle 69/102 in Base (1999). Both list 40 HP. Both list the rarity Common. Mitsuhiro Arita illustrated that card, and Miki Tanaka illustrated this one. 13 other cards of Weedle list a different HP.

The attack Spike Stab lists 20 damage. The cost is Grass. Flip a coin. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. If tails, this attack does nothing (not even damage). Weakness is Fire ×2. Retreat cost is 1. The flavor text reads "Its poison stinger is very powerful. Its bright-colored body is intended to warn off its enemies."

I keep a set binder for Neo Discovery, meant to hold every card of that set. This card is one slot in the Neo Discovery set binder. A generation binder holds one card of each species. Weedle can fill a slot in Generation 1 binder (Kanto). I still need this card.
