#101 Iris - Plasma Blast (bw10)

Iris is a Trainer card from the Black & White series, part of the Plasma Blast set released on August 14, 2013. Designed by artist Kagemaru Himeno, it holds a Rare Ultra rarity and is classified as a Trainer type. The card’s rules specify that during its turn, your Pokémon’s attacks deal 10 additional damage to the Active Pokémon for each Prize card your opponent has collected. Additionally, it restricts players to using only one Supporter card during their turn before initiating an attack. These mechanics emphasize strategic interaction with the opponent’s Prize cards and limit Supporter card usage to maintain game balance. The card’s absence of types, resistances, or weaknesses aligns with its Trainer category, focusing on gameplay effects rather than combat statistics. Its unique rules provide a distinct tactical advantage without relying on traditional attack mechanics. This card exemplifies the thematic depth of the Plasma Blast set through its rule-based interactions.
