Vine Whip

Call for Family

Search your deck for a Basic Pokémon named Bellsprout and put it onto your Bench. Shuffle your deck afterward. (You can't use this attack if your Bench is full.)

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.

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 8,705 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 Fire ×2. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 8,705 tournament lists we have read, 1,929 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
