Card Details
Set
Character Background
Nincada from the Dragon expansion is a modest Basic Grass Pokémon that leans into early tempo and incremental control rather than raw damage. Poison Breath is only 10 damage, but the coin-flip chance to inflict Poison makes it more disruptive than it first appears, especially in slower matchups where repeated chip damage can force awkward retreat decisions and soften targets for a bigger finisher. In play, it fits best in a control-leaning Grass shell or any list that wants to buy time while spreading pressure. A good deckbuilding tip is to pair it with Poison support and effects that punish poisoned opponents, turning each successful flip into real board advantage; cards that reduce retreat or help recycle Basics also make it more consistent. Thematically, Nincada feels like an underground struggler, nibbling at foes from below and slipping away before retaliation, which matches its role as an inexpensive nuisance that helps you dictate the pace of the early game.
