Collector Insights

Dual Ball is a Trainer card from the Expedition Base Set, released in 2002 as part of the E-Card series. The card is illustrated by artist Big Mama Tagawa and functions as a special rule card. Its primary action involves flipping two coins, with each heads result triggering a specific deck search. Players must locate a Basic Pokémon card other than a Baby Pokémon, reveal it to their opponent, and add it to their hand. After completing this process, the deck is shuffled to maintain randomness. The card’s effect emphasizes strategic card management by allowing players to acquire Basic Pokémon from their deck. It does not require retreat costs, resistances, or weaknesses, making it a straightforward utility card. This rule-based mechanism supports gameplay by enabling players to diversify their hand composition during the game.
