How does Poison work in Pokemon TCG?

I've been playing Pokemon TCG for years, and let me tell you, using poison can really turn the tide of a battle. That one extra damage counter at the end of each turn can add up fast, especially in tight matches. Totally underrated strategy.

In the Pokemon TCG, when a Pokemon is poisoned, you put a poison counter on it. At the end of the owner's turn, that Pokemon takes one damage counter because of the poison. It's a slick way to slowly chip away at your opponent's Pokemon, especially if you can't knock them out with a direct attack right away. Remember, only the passage of turns will cause the damage from poison, so it's a strategy game!
