#34 Crushing Hammer - Kalos Starter Set (xy0)

Crushing Hammer is a Trainer card from the XY series, included in the Kalos Starter Set released on November 8, 2013. The card was illustrated by 5ban Graphics and is numbered 34 within the set. Its rules allow players to flip a coin, discarding an Energy attached to one of their opponent's Pokémon if the result is heads. Additionally, the card permits playing as many Item cards as desired during the player's turn before initiating an attack. These mechanics provide strategic flexibility by targeting opponents' resources and enabling resource management. The card's design aligns with the set's focus on foundational Pokémon and Trainer cards. It does not specify any types, weaknesses, resistances, or retreat costs, reflecting its role as a specialized Trainer card. The absence of attacks or abilities further defines its unique function within gameplay.
