>>56850847Copied picrel off the tournament site in the op but with a red card over gio out of personal preference. Basically it lets you be aggressive out of the gate with low energy cost/retreat cost mons but also it lets you bluff and set traps like mentioned in
>>56850810. Switch out can make its staple mons RC 0, and you can bluff damage ranges that your opp will probably miss. Consider a game scenario like this
>Need to kill opponent’s EX Mewtwo to win, he has it out vs Rapidash, Mewtwo is at 120HP>Switch out Rapidash with an unevolved Vulpix on my bench at 1 Fire Energy>Vulpix gets your energy for that turn, evolve to Ninetales, use 2 Fire Energy Flamethrower with a boost from Blaine to do 120 damage and kill Mewtwo to winObviously good players might clock it but even if they do, it forces them on the defensive and you have Sabrinas to fuck them up in that case. We’re only playing vs randoms though so to the average joe that gamestate just looks like an unevolved benched Vulpix and not your win condition
