Galactic HQ
This card stays in play when you play it. Discard this card if another Stadium card comes into play. If another card with the same name is in play, you can't play this card. Whenever any player plays any Pokémon from his or her hand to evolve his or her Pokémon, put 2 damage counters on that Pokémon.
Galactic HQ creates a high-risk environment for anyone trying to evolve their Pokemon. Every time a Pokemon is evolved, it immediately takes two damage, which can quickly knock out weaker creatures.
Which deck it belongs in
This card suits aggressive decks that rely on quick attacks rather than evolving multiple Pokemon. It is less useful in decks that need to build up powerful evolved forms.
- •Fast damage
