#134 Professor Birch's Observations - Primal Clash (xy5)

Professor Birch's Observations is a Trainer card from the XY series, specifically the Primal Clash set, released on February 4, 2015. The card is illustrated by artist Yusuke Ohmura and classified as a Supporter card with an Uncommon rarity. Its rules dictate that players must shuffle their hand into their deck and flip a coin, drawing 7 cards if the result is heads or 4 cards if tails. Additionally, the card restricts players to using only one Supporter card during their turn before initiating an attack. The card’s functionality revolves around reshuffling the player’s hand and adjusting their draw phase based on a random outcome. This mechanic introduces variability in resource management during gameplay. The card’s design emphasizes strategic flexibility by limiting the number of Supporter cards that can be played in a single turn. Overall, it serves as a tool to alter the flow of the game through probabilistic card draws and turn restrictions.
