Fighting Style
Kamen Rider Verde's forte in combat is deception. He has two cards which allow him to play illusions on his targets, deceiving them before attacking them. In addition, he doe not rely on face - to - face combat, preferring to strike where they are vulnerable. However, Verde is physically weaker then the rest of the Riders because of this strategy.

Verde's primary Weapon is the Bio-Winder, a type of whip which Verde uses to constrict his enemies. He primarily relies on his Clear Vent, which make him invisible, and the Copy Vent, which allows him to assume the apperance and weapon of a Rider. His Final Vent is Death Punish were Biogreeza wraps his extended tongue around Verde's legs and swings him towards an opponent where Verde grabs the enemy and slams him head first into the ground.

Contract Monster
Biogreeza : Resembling a humanoid chameleon, Biogreeza possesses a camouflage ability and could extend its tongue to 600 m long. Like it's master, Biogreeza prefers to remain cloaked until it is summoned for the Final Vent.



Advent Cards
