Light Ledian is an interesting card because it has a move that affects other Pokemon for a consistent duration without the use of any counters or special identifiers. Flash Touch swaps this Active Bug-type with any other Pokemon on the trainer's Bench and essentially gives them a shield that protects them from special conditions while they are the Active Poke
It also has the attack Psychic Lock, which, at the cost of 1DCE and 1PE, deals 60 damage and locks the opponent from using any Poké-power of their Pokémon tcg Pocket 24 hourglasses distribution during their next turn. The card has also been part of the World Championships winning deck in 2008 used by Jason Klaczyn
There are other butterfly-like Pokemon that have attacks like this as well. Vivillon from the Forbidden Light Expansion has Vivid Powder, an attack that makes the foe Poisoned and Asleep simultaneously while also doing 50 damage. Having a deck full of butterflies sounds cute but could be a deadly strat
Slowking is a Basic pokémon with 80 HP that belongs to the Neo Genesis expansion. While it does have an ability called Mind Blast, the most relevant ability of this card is its Poké-power Mind Games. Upon putting Mind Games into effect, the opponent needs to flip a coin every time he/she plays a Trainer Card, and, if it lands on heads, the Trainer has no effect and needs to be replaced at the top of the opponent’s d
A few in the Sword & Shield expansion have this ability, like Celebi V . A few more Pokemon in the player's hand or Bench also gives them a bit of security in case the opponent has a trick up their sleeve. A great opening gambit, regardless of deck strat
Since the player has the option of choosing the cards, he/she can select exactly those that he/she needs to aid his/her gameplay. While the Trainer Cards can only be played in the following turn, the Stadium Cards can be put into play right a
One of the more intimidating cards from the Neo Destiny set, Dark Feraligatr can prevent the Pokemon Powers of Baby Pokemon simply by being in play. However, this gator's main strength is its Crushing Blow attack that not only does a great 50 damage but also has half a chance of causing the injured foe to discard one of their energy ca
The Pokemon Power of this Ghost-type , Deep Sleep, makes it very difficult for the sleeping foe to awaken, requiring them to flip two coins without getting any tails. There is little defense or counter against this strategy, as opponents cannot recall Pokemon that are Asleep unless they use an item or Pokemon Power of their
Therefore, the Pokémon Center Lady Trainer Card, better known to anime fans as Nurse Jay, is a brilliant resource to have up the sleeve when evolving or retreating are not an option, and the player’s pokémon has received considerable damage. This Trainer Card allows players one of the best strategies to recover in PTCG by healing 60 damage, as well as any Special Condition on any one of the pokémon chosen by the pla
Golem from the Skyridge set is a bit more useable, though not by much. Its Rock Throw is as generic as TCG attacks come, though at least its energy cost is not ridiculous. Golem's Earth Bomb attack, however, is a risky move to use as it is uniquely designed to injure friends as well as f
It not only refreshes the hand, but it also allows the player to forego cards he/she doesn’t want. Owing to the fact that it adds cards to the discard pile, the player may also later use cards in the game which allows him/her to recover discarded cards and use the same to benefit his/her p
Focusing on your own strategies is all well and good, but ignoring what the opponent is up to can be disastrous . They may have drawn a great starting hand and are close to unleashing their strongest weapon. Instead of suffering it, a trainer could throw a wrench into the enemy's plans by causing their Active Pokemon to lose energy, forcing them to discard their hand, or even wreaking havoc on their Bench Poke
The other ability, Psychic Restore, is also great, allowing players to deal 20 damage, while also replacing Uxie and all cards attached to it to the bottom of the player’s deck. This card's utility lies in the fact that it allows players to draw through their entire decks and use all the cards in the best possible man
Despite being the only common-rarity card in the entire Neo Destiny expansion set, this friendly flower is one of the best. Its Reflected Sunlight move allows its trainer to load up any ally Grass-type Pokemon with twice as much grass energy as usual in a single turn, which can make setting up for big attacks much quicker and eas
