You're fighting a large hostile plant

You sit on the ground and lean back against one of this planet's decent-sized plants, thinking you'll take a little bit of a break from your exploration.

Next thing you know, you're face down in the dirt. That plant's alive!

I mean, all plants are alive, but this one's alive in the moving-around-with-intention sense.

A massive branch of the plant, blown by a sudden gust of wind, smacks you in the <forehead>. Argh! Eek! Ooh!

Notes

This monster's Attack is based on the Player's Moxie+10 and Defense is Player's Muscle+10. However, the Spacegate's first letter will also add an additional 25X, where X is the difference between the first letter and A. (Thus a Spacegate starting with B will be Player Stat+35, while a Spacegate starting with Z will be Player Stat+635.)
After combat, with a botanical sample kit:

You pull the sampling pliers out of your botany kit and delicately extract some of the plant's genetic material.
