What this card does

The card requires each player to discard two cards from their hand.

Your opponent must discard first, which may disrupt their strategy.

What it does

Jessie & James

Each player discards 2 cards from their hand. Your opponent discards first.

This card acts as a forced cleanup for both sides. It matters because it can stop your child's opponent from holding onto powerful cards or setting up a strong attack.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits decks that rely on drawing many cards to find key pieces. It works well in fast-paced strategies where hand size is less critical than speed.

Pro tip

Good to know

Jessie and James are members of Team Rocket who often cause trouble for Ash and his friends.

Note for the parent

Remind your child that using this card reduces their own options, so they should only play it when the opponent has more dangerous cards than they do.
