#279 Sidney - Fusion Strike (swsh8)
Sidney is a Trainer card from the Sword & Shield series, part of the Fusion Strike set released on November 12, 2021. Designed by artist Hideki Ishikawa, it carries a Rare Rainbow rarity and is marked with regulation code E. The card functions as a Supporter-type Trainer, enforcing specific gameplay rules during its use. One rule requires the opponent to reveal their hand and discard up to two cards from specified categories, including Pokémon Tool, Special Energy, or Stadium cards. Another rule restricts players to using only one Supporter card during their turn. Its design aligns with the set’s thematic focus on strategic interaction and resource management. The card’s rules emphasize tactical decision-making and limit opponents’ options to influence game flow. As a Trainer card, it operates within the broader framework of the Pokémon TCG’s competitive and narrative-driven mechanics.
