What it does

Coach Trainer

Draw 2 cards. If your Active Pokémon is a TAG TEAM Pokémon, draw 2 more cards.

This trainer helps you find the cards you need by adding four cards to your hand when used with a TAG TEAM Pokemon. It matters because having more options in your hand allows you to play stronger attacks or support moves sooner.

Which deck it belongs in

This card fits best in decks built around TAG TEAM Pokemon. It is less useful for standard single Pokemon decks where it only provides two cards.

  • High card draw
  • TAG TEAM teamwork
  • Uncommon rarity

Pro tip
