#229 Choice Helmet - Lost Thunder (sm8)

Choice Helmet is a Trainer card from the Sun & Moon series, specifically the Lost Thunder set, released on November 2, 2018. Designed by artist Eske Yoshinob, it is classified as a Rare Secret rarity card. The card functions as an Item, offering strategic advantages through its three unique rules. It allows players to attach a Pokémon Tool to one of their Pokémon that does not already have such a tool. This attachment grants the targeted Pokémon a defensive benefit, reducing damage taken from opponent’s Pokémon-GX and Pokémon-EX attacks by 30 after accounting for Weakness and Resistance. Additionally, the card permits the player to play multiple Item cards during their turn, provided they do so before initiating an attack. Its mechanics emphasize resource management and tactical positioning during gameplay. The absence of types, resistances, or weaknesses aligns with its role as a support card rather than a direct attacker. This card’s design encourages players to optimize their deck’s utility while adhering to specific timing constraints.
