#91 Counter Catcher - Crimson Invasion (sm4)

Counter Catcher is a Trainer card from the Sun & Moon series, specifically featured in the Crimson Invasion set released on November 3, 2017. This Uncommon rarity card is illustrated by artist Toyste Beach and functions as a strategic gameplay tool with unique rules. Players can only deploy this card if they possess more Prize cards remaining than their opponent, creating a conditional play mechanic. Its primary effect allows switching one of the opponent’s Benched Pokémon with their Active Pokémon, altering the battlefield dynamics. Additionally, the card permits the use of multiple Item cards during the player’s turn, provided they are played before initiating an attack. These rules emphasize resource management and tactical positioning within the game. The absence of traditional Pokémon attributes like types, weaknesses, or retreat costs underscores its distinct role as a Trainer card. Its design encourages players to leverage Prize card advantages and manipulate opponent positioning for strategic gain.
