What this card does

Ultra Road
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may switch your Active Pokémon with 1 of your Benched Pokémon.
The key feature is Sol Burst GX which allows you to grab five Energy cards from your deck and place them wherever you need them. This ability matters because it resets the board state by giving your Pokemon a full battery of energy in one go.
Attacks
Discard all Energy from this Pokémon.
Search your deck for up to 5 Energy cards and attach them to your Pokémon in any way you like. Then, shuffle your deck. (You can’t use more than 1 GX attack in a game.)
