Helps defend against powerful attacks by turning the tables on your opponent.

What it does

Team Rocket's Hypnotizer

If the Team Rocket's Pokémon this card is attached to is in the Active Spot and is damaged by an attack from your opponent's Pokémon (even if this Team Rocket's Pokémon is Knocked Out), the Attacking Pokémon is now Asleep.

By attaching this card to one of Team Rocket's Pokémon, you can turn an attack into a disadvantage for your opponent, as their active Pokémon will be unable to act next turn.

Which deck it belongs in

Works best in decks that rely on Team Rocket's Pokémon and need a way to counter strong attacks from the opposing player.

Strengths
  • Turns opponent's attacks against them
  • Protects Team Rocket's Pokémon
Watch out for
  • Requires a Team Rocket's Pokémon in Active Spot
  • Doesn't work if the Pokémon is already Knocked Out
Pro tip

Save this card for when your opponent has a strong attacker in play and you have one of Team Rocket's Pokémon ready.

Good to know

Team Rocket's Hypnotizer can make even the toughest opponents fall into a deep sleep.
