What it does

Rescue Energy

Rescue Energy provides Colorless Energy. If the Pokémon this card is attached to is Knocked Out by damage from an attack, put that Pokémon back into your hand. (Discard all cards attached to that Pokémon.)

This card acts as a safety net for your Pokemon. When the opponent knocks out your Pokemon, you can take it back into your hand and use it again in the next turn.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits decks that rely on powerful but fragile attackers. It helps keep key pieces of the strategy alive longer.

Strengths
  • Prevents total loss
  • Recovers resources
  • Uncommon rarity
Watch out for
  • All attached cards are discarded
  • Only works on Knock Out
  • No protection from other effects
Pro tip

Attach it to a Pokemon you really want to save, knowing that all its other attachments will be lost when it returns.

Good to know

Rescue Energy is a Special Energy card found in the Triumphant set.

Note for the parent

Remind your child to check if the opponent's attack caused the Knock Out, as this is required to use the effect.
