The card’s rules allow players to switch their Active Pokémon with one of their Benched Pokémon, providing flexibility in battle positioning. Additionally, it permits the use of multiple Item cards during a player’s turn before initiating an attack. Notably, it lacks traditional Pokémon attributes such as types, attacks, resistances, or weaknesses. The card’s absence of retreat costs and HP values aligns with its Trainer classification.
