Strategy & play
How Cascoon plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Grass type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥40 effectively one-shots it.
- Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.
- A Stage 1 — one step up from Wurmple; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
How to beat Cascoon
- Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥40 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
- Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Cascoon is real?
Cascoon is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
