Collector Insights

Devolution Spray is a Trainer card from the Expansion Pack set, released on October 20, 1996. Designed by artist Keiji Kinebuchi, it is classified as a Rare card with a theme color of #cbaf76. The card’s flavor text describes a mechanism where a player selects one of their own Pokémon in play and a Stage of Evolution, then discards all Evolution cards attached to that Pokémon at or above the chosen Stage. This action removes the selected Pokémon from any status conditions like Sleep, Confusion, or Poison, effectively resetting its state. The card’s function focuses on disrupting opponents’ strategies by eliminating attached Evolution cards and altering a Pokémon’s status. Its Trainer supertype indicates it is a support card rather than a Pokémon or Energy. The card’s design and mechanics align with the game’s emphasis on tactical resource management and conditional effects.

Choose 1 of your own Pokémon in play and a Stage of Evolution. Discard all Evolution cards of that Stage or higher attached to that Pokémon. That Pokémon is no longer Asleep, Confused, Paralyzed, Poisoned, or anything else that might be the result of an attack (just as if you had evolved it).
