Its Ability

Shadowy Envoy

Once during your turn, if you played Janine's Secret Art from your hand this turn, you may draw cards until you have 8 cards in your hand.

Its attacks

Poison Fang

120

Your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Poisoned. During Pokémon Checkup, put 2 damage counters on that Pokémon instead of 1.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

  1. A strength

    It retreats for free. You can pull it back to the Bench whenever you like, even with no Energy on it at all.

  2. A strength

    It has an Ability, Shadowy Envoy. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.

  4. Keep in mind

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Golbat to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 281 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

  6. Keep in mind

    Mark H, and that is the letter the next rotation takes away. After that you will not be able to play it in Standard.

Who plays it

None of the tournament lists we have read mentions this card. That happens with a card that has just come out, or one players have not tried yet.

When it came out

Shrouded Fable landed here on 2 August 2024.

In Japan these cards were already in shops on 7 June 2024, under the code SV6a. That is 56 days ahead of us.
