Let me know when it’s back

Check the number and illustration against the card you are looking for.

Its characteristics and effects in play, with the original text when available.

Put up to 2 Basic Energy cards from your discard pile into your hand.

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.

A strength
Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.
A strength
It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.
Keep in mind
None of the 3,649 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.
Keep in mind
Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,649 tournament lists we have read, 843 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

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.
