SpinarakNeo Discovery #64 Pokémon Card

Spinarak is a Bug/Poison-type Pokémon, introduced in the second generation of the Pokémon franchise, which debuted with the *Pokémon Gold* and *Silver* games. It is known as the String Spit Pokémon, a fitting moniker given its primary method of hunting and defense. Spinarak evolves into Ariados starting at level 22. Its natural habitat typically includes forests and dark, secluded areas where it can spin its elaborate webs undisturbed. Spinarak's diet consists mainly of smaller insects that become ensnared in its sticky traps. Its behavior is characterized by patience and cunning; it often waits motionless for prey to stumble into its web before striking. In the games, Spinarak is an early-game Bug/Poison type that can be quite useful for trainers looking for a Pokémon with status-inflicting moves like Poison Sting. In the anime, Spinarak has appeared in various episodes, often showcasing its web-spinning prowess and sometimes acting as a minor antagonist or a partner to trainers. Its unique appearance, resembling a cartoonish spider with large eyes, has made it a recognizable and somewhat endearing figure among fans. The type matchups for Spinarak are typical of Bug/Poison types: weak to Fire, Flying, Psychic, and Rock, while resisting Fighting, Grass, Poison, Bug, and Fairy.
