Collector Insights

AZ is a Supporter-type card from the The Best of XY set, released on April 21, 2017. Designed by artist Ken Sugimori, it is numbered 138 in the series. The card’s flavor text describes an action that allows a player to place one of their Pokémon into their hand while discarding all attached cards. Its mechanics focus on strategic resource management by removing attached cards from the selected Pokémon. The card’s design aligns with the Supporter supertype, which typically involves abilities that aid in gameplay. It does not include any listed attacks or hit points, emphasizing its role as a support card rather than a direct attacker. The card’s theme revolves around manipulating Pokémon placement and attachments to gain an advantage.

Put 1 of your Pokémon into your hand. (Discard all cards attached to that Pokémon.)
