Collector Insights

Max Revive is a Trainer card from the City Gym Decks set, released on April 26, 1998. It features artwork by Hikaru Koike and is associated with the theme color #a58d6b. The card’s flavor text describes a mechanic where players discard two Energy cards from their hand to place a Basic Pokémon from their discard pile onto their Bench. This action is conditional on the Bench not being full, as the card explicitly prohibits using Max Revive when the Bench is already occupied. The card’s number in the set is 68, though its rarity is unspecified. It belongs to the Trainer supertype, a category that includes cards enabling strategic support during gameplay. The card’s design and function align with the thematic elements of the City Gym Decks expansion, which focuses on competitive Pokémon battles. Its unique interaction with Energy cards and Bench management highlights its role in tactical play.

Discard 2 Energy cards from your hand in order to put 1 Basic Pokémon from your discard pile onto your Bench. (You can't play Max Revive if your Bench is full.)
