What it does

Scramble Energy

Scramble Energy can be attached only to an Evolved Pokémon (excluding Pokémon-ex). Scramble Energy provides Colorless Energy. While in play, if you have more Prize cards left than your opponent, Scramble Energy provides every type of Energy but provides only 3 in any combination at a time. If the Pokémon Scramble Energy is attached to isn't an Evolved Pokémon (or evolves into Pokémon-ex), discard Scramble Energy.

This card changes its function based on the game state. It gives a single colorless energy normally, but becomes a powerful multi-type resource when you are ahead in the match.

Which deck it belongs in

It suits decks that rely on evolved Pokémon and aim to secure prize cards quickly.
