StadiumBeginner to play

What this card does

The card stays on the Bench as a Stadium effect.

It applies to every Pokémon in play, including those belonging to your opponent.

It sets the Retreat Cost to zero for any Pokémon holding at least one Fairy Energy.

What it does

Fairy Garden

Each Pokémon that has any Fairy Energy attached to it (both yours and your opponent's) has no Retreat Cost.

This card creates a shared benefit where escaping damage becomes free. It matters because it forces both players to rethink their strategy when Fairy Energy is involved.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits decks that rely on Fairy Energy to power up attacks. It works well in games where switching Pokémon out frequently is key.

Strengths
  • Free movement
  • Shared effect
  • Fairy support
Watch out for
  • Helps opponents
  • Requires Fairy Energy
  • Stadium limit
Pro tip

Use it when your Pokémon are low on health to swap them out safely.

Good to know

Fairy types are often associated with magic and charm in the Pokemon world.

Note for the parent

Remember that this effect helps your opponent too, so they can also escape easily if they use Fairy Energy.
