The Arbok card captures a moment in a lush, dense forest, where the snake-like Pokémon is poised in a striking posture, its body coiled and ready. The vibrant colors of its scales contrast with the deep greens of the foliage, creating a sense of intrigue and tension. Arbok's fierce expression hints at its cunning nature, as it embodies both elegance and danger within its natural habitat. This snapshot invites the viewer to appreciate the delicate balance of beauty and threat that exists in the wild.
Flip a coin. If heads and if your opponent has any Benched Pokémon, he or she chooses 1 of them and switches it with the Defending Pokémon. (Do the damage before switching the Pokémon.)
The Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned.
