Poké-Power:
Baby Evolution
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may put Sudowoodo from your hand onto Bonsly (this counts as evolving Bonsly) and remove all damage counters from Bonsly.
Attacks
- Fake Tears
Flip a coin. If heads, your opponent can't play any Trainer cards from his or her hand during your opponent's next turn, and any damage done to Bonsly by attacks is reduced by 30 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).
Artwork Description
The artwork on this card depicts Bonsly lying on its back, tears streaming as it appears to adjust its body's fluid levels, surrounded by a soft, grassy environment with a gentle, glowing sky in the background.
Playability Overview
Bonsly's ability to evolve quickly and heal damage provides strategic resilience, while its coin flip attack can disrupt opponents, making it a versatile, albeit somewhat luck-dependent, support Pokémon.
