Dark Venusaur (Japanese: わるいフシギバナ Bad Fushigibana) is a Grass-type Stage 2 Pokémon card. It was first released as one of the Unnumbered Promotional cards in Japan, and later released in English as a Best of Game promotional card. This art was also used on the Web series Holofoil rare Dark Venusaur. Making it the first time a 1st Edition stamp was used on a Japanese Holofoil rare Venusaur. This Venusaur is also considered a Shining Pokémon due to the dark blue colour of its skin as opposed to light green.
