What this card does

The attack Infinite Force deals 30 damage multiplied by the total number of Energy cards on both your active Pokemon and your opponent's active Pokemon.

The attack Twilight-GX shuffles ten cards from your discard pile back into your deck to help you find more resources.

It has an ability called Secret Spring that lets you attach a Fairy Energy card from your hand to one of your Pokemon once per turn.

Signature ability

Secret Spring

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may attach a Fairy Energy card from your hand to 1 of your Pokémon.

The key feature is the Infinite Force attack which calculates damage by counting all energy on both sides. This means it hits harder when the game is more intense and both players have attached many energy cards.

Attacks

Note for the parent

Remind your child they can only use one GX attack like Twilight-GX per whole game so they should save it for a critical moment.
