Steven's Carbink
A defensive bench card that protects your other Steven Pokémon from heavy damage.
What this card does
This Basic Psychic type has 80 HP and sits on the Bench.
It uses the Stone Palace ability to reduce incoming damage by 30 points for all your other Steven Pokémon.
It can also use the Magical Shot attack to deal 80 damage.
Stone Palace
As long as this Pokémon is on your Bench, all of your Steven's Pokémon take 30 less damage from attacks from your opponent's Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance). The effect of Stone Palace doesn't stack.
The Stone Palace ability acts as a shield for your team while this card rests on the Bench. It lowers damage by 30 but does not stack with other similar effects, so it works best when used alone.
