Giovanni's Nidoqueen (Gym Challenge 23/132, First Edition) is a Grass-type Stage 2 Pokémon card illustrated by Ken Sugimori. It has two attacks: Mega Kick deals 40 damage for three Energy, and Love Lariat is a coin-flip attack that can deal up to 100 damage if you have Giovanni's Nidoking on your Bench and the flip succeeds. The card carries a ×2 Psychic weakness and a three Colorless retreat cost, making it a mid-power attacker with conditional high-damage potential balanced by vulnerability and retreat requirements.
