About this card
"It releases a stench from its red antenna to repel enemies. It grows by molting repeatedly."
Poké-Power: Pupate
Once during your turn (before your attack), if Caterpie is your Active Pokémon, you may flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for a card that evolves from Caterpie and put it onto Caterpie. (This counts as evolving Caterpie.) Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Caterpie is affected by a Special Condition.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Caterpie is real?
Caterpie 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.
