    This is a fun ability but this card just hasn’t got the juice to be effective. (A) clunky attack energy cost; (B) attack can’t be used twice in a row without pivoting out of the active spot; (C) the benefit of turning this card into a one-prizer is offset by the fact that your Pecharunt ex can easily be gusted up from the bench and KO’d. Then you’re down two prizes AND all of a sudden Munkidori ex is a two-prize liability again!

    Just to clarify, Sam, no, you don’t have to pay for the ENERGY COST of an attack when using Mimed Games (Compare Mew ex from 151 to Ditto from Pokémon GO), and no, burma, the Mime Jr. player is the one who has to discard Water Energy for Hail Blade to do damage. But that’s just as bad, because if you are actually use Mimed Games with sufficient Water Energy in play to do significant damage with Hail Blade, the Chien-Pao ex player will simply choose a different attack for you to copy. Your opponent will always choose the worst possible attack for the situation, be it an effect attack that does nothing useful (or simply nothing), the lowest possible damage attack possible, or an attack whose conditions are impossible to meet.

    Given that this Duskull is identical to the one from Brilliant Stars in all aspects except for attacks, I had to ask myself which one is more optimal in a deck with no way of fulfilling Psychic Energy costs. My thought process was this; if the only Pokémon capable of copying other Pokémon’s attacks (Excluding something completely unviable like Mime Jr. whose attack can be played around by just about any deck) can only copy the attacks of the Defending Pokémon, the Duskull from Brilliant Stars is objectively better, because in a freak situation where your opponent can only attack with a Mew ex and your only Pokémon in play is Duskull, it would take 6 hits to Knock Out that Duskull. But if attacks of Pokémon on your bench, in your discard pile, etc., can be copied by any Pokémon in the format, this Duskull might possibly be better, since doing 30 damage to a Pokémon ex is less relevant than inflicting Confusion (which you might possibly be forced to attack through if you don’t…

    An important thing to note is that this card wasn’t part of any expansion in Japan, it was only a Pokémon Card Gym promo. It is from Series 8 of the SWSH era, meaning it was parallel to the release of Fusion Arts. TPCI almost always delays the release of Gym promos.

    It was first released in Asian regions in late 2021, before the game moved to the “F” block. Cards retain their regulation marks worldwide regardless of when they’re released (unless they’re reprinted later with an updated mark), so this card retained its “E” mark when it released in Astral Radiance internationally. Hope that helps! :)

    Is this the only Supporter card in the SV series that targets a specific Pokemon type? Something that occurred to me with the recent full reveal of Paradise Dragona is that despite featuring several Dragon-specalist trainers as Supporter cards, none of them have effects that interact specifically with Dragon-type Pokemon, and now looking back through SV Supporters, I guess this is something they have started to downplay?

    While it seems completely outclassed, that’s not entirely true. Crispin requires you to put 1 of the energy you find into your hand, so if you only have 1 energy in deck, you will not be able to attach it to a Pokémon with the effect of Crispin.
