Garchomp Spirit Link

Rotated Out

A special tool that lets you keep playing after evolving.

TrainerBeginner to play

What this card does

Attach this card to one of your Pokémon that has no other tools.

If that Pokémon evolves into Mega Garchomp-EX, your turn continues normally.

You can play any number of Item cards before attacking.

What it does

Garchomp Spirit Link

Attach a Pokémon Tool to 1 of your Pokémon that doesn't already have a Pokémon Tool attached to it. Your turn does not end if the Pokémon this card is attached to becomes M Garchomp-EX. You may play as many Item cards as you like during your turn (before your attack).

This tool breaks the usual rule that you can only play one Item per turn. It allows your child to attach multiple items and still attack in the same round.

Which deck it belongs in

It fits best in decks built around Mega Garchomp-EX. It helps those decks move faster by removing item limits.

Strengths
  • Unlimited items
  • Smooth evolution
  • Fast setup
Watch out for
  • Mega Garchomp only
  • One tool limit
  • Promo rarity
Pro tip

Use it to attach multiple speed or damage tools before the big attack.

Good to know

Garchomp is known for flying at speeds over Mach 2.
