What this card does

Draw two cards from your deck.

Flip a coin to see if you can move a Fire Energy card from the discard pile to a Benched Pokémon.

What it does

Candela

Draw 2 cards. If you drew any cards in this way, flip a coin. If heads, attach a Fire Energy card from your discard pile to 1 of your Benched Pokémon.

This card helps you find resources by letting you look at new cards and potentially recover lost energy. The coin flip adds an element of chance to whether your Benched Pokémon gets powered up.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits Fire-type decks that need to rebuild their energy supply quickly. It works well in decks where drawing extra cards is a key strategy.
