The artwork was created by artist Toyste Beach. This card’s flavor text describes two effects: if attached to one of the player’s Pokémon, it is discarded at the end of the opponent’s turn. Additionally, if the Pokémon it is attached to becomes the Active Pokémon and is damaged by an opponent’s attack, even if it is Knocked Out, the Attacking Pokémon receives 6 damage counters. The card does not have a listed HP value. It belongs to the Item supertype, which typically represents objects used in gameplay rather than living Pokémon. The card’s mechanics focus on interaction with attached Pokémon and damage distribution during battles.
