What this card does

It has 150 Hit Points and evolves from Pidgeotto.

It uses the Twister attack to deal 80 damage by flipping two coins.

If a coin lands on heads, you discard a random Energy card from the opponent's Active Pokémon.

Signature attack

Twister

Flip 2 coins. For each heads, discard a random Energy from your opponent's Active Pokémon. If both of them are tails, this attack does nothing. (80 damage)

The key feature of this card is its ability to disrupt the opponent's strategy. By potentially removing their Energy cards, it makes it harder for them to play powerful attacks in future turns.

Note for the parent

Remind your child that the attack is risky because it relies on coin flips, so they should be prepared for the possibility of missing their turn's damage.
