What it does

Echoing Horn

Put a Basic Pokémon from your opponent's discard pile onto their Bench.

This item lets you retrieve a discarded Basic Pokemon and put it back into play on the Bench. It matters because it forces your child to deal with an active threat again instead of leaving it behind.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits decks that want to disrupt the opponent's strategy by recycling their own resources against them.

Strengths
  • Disruptive
  • Resource denial
  • Uncommon rarity
Watch out for
  • Basic only
  • Target dependent
Pro tip

Check the opponent's discard pile first to see if a Basic Pokemon is available before playing this card.

Good to know

The name Echoing Horn suggests a sound that bounces back, much like how this card sends a Pokemon back to the Bench.

Note for the parent

Remind your child that only Basic Pokemon can be returned this way, not Stage 1 or Stage 2.
