Option one lets you take a single Pokemon from your discard pile into your hand.
Option two allows you to shuffle three Pokemon from your discard pile back into your deck.
Rescue Stretcher
Choose 1: • Put a Pokémon from your discard pile into your hand. • Shuffle 3 Pokémon from your discard pile into your deck.
This card gives you control over where your discarded Pokemon go. You can either grab a specific piece you need immediately or reset the board by mixing three cards back into your deck for future turns.
Which deck it belongs in
It suits decks that rely on reusing powerful Pokemon from the discard pile. It is also useful in slower decks that need to recover resources after losing key pieces.
- •Versatile retrieval
- •Resource recovery
- •Strategic choice
- •Limited to one use per turn
- •Shuffling removes specific positioning
- •Requires discards to be effective
Use the first option when you need a specific Pokemon right now, and the second option when you want to hide your discarded cards from your opponent.
Trainer cards like this one help keep the game moving by managing resources rather than battling directly.
Ask your child which option they prefer to use during their turn, as it changes how the game flows.
