Brute Bonnet debuts in the 2023 Pokémon TCG Paradox Rift expansion as a Basic Ancient–type Pokémon, fitting the set’s time-traveling, Scarlet & Violet theme. Its Illustration Rare (secret rare #207/182) trading card boasts a vibrant holofoil illustration by Tomokazu Komiya, depicting the hulking mushroom creature amid glowing fungi and swirling psychedelic patterns. In play, Brute Bonnet has 120 HP and the Toxic Powder Ability, which can poison both Active Pokémon when an Ancient Booster Energy Capsule is attached—echoing Paradox Rift’s Ancient-energy mechanics. Collectors prize this alternate-art foil for its detailed artwork and rarity; it also intrigues fans through its lore link to Amoonguss as an Ancient-era Paradox Pokémon.
