What this card does

You must have Araquanid on the field to use this card.

You choose one of your opponent's Benched Pokemon and move it to the Active Spot.

What it does

Lana

You can use this card only if you have Araquanid in play. Switch in 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon to the Active Spot.

This Supporter card forces a change in the battle by moving an opponent's Pokemon from their bench to the front line. It matters because you can pick a weaker or less useful Pokemon to face your attacker instead of letting them keep their strong ones safe.

Which deck it belongs in

This card suits decks that include Araquanid and want to disrupt the opponent's strategy. It works well in decks that rely on attacking with specific Pokemon who benefit from facing different targets.

Strengths
  • Forces bad matchups
  • Disrupts strategy
  • Uses Araquanid
Watch out for
  • Requires Araquanid
  • One time use per game
Pro tip

Use this when the opponent has a weak Pokemon on their bench that you want to attack.

Good to know

Lana is the Gym Leader of Vast Poni Canyon who loves water and lives with her brother.

Note for the parent

Explain to your child that they need to have Araquanid in play before they can use Lana to move an opponent's card.
