Boost Energy can be attached only to an Evolved Pokémon. Discard Boost Energy at the end of the turn it was attached. Boost Energy provides {C}{C}{C} Energy. The Pokémon Boost Energy is attached to can’t retreat.
When the Pokémon Boost Energy is attached to is no longer an Evolved Pokémon, discard Boost Energy.

As you can really see on this card, that ‘bar’ on the top right of the Energy card template for the e-Card block – which carried into all of the Gen 3 and Gen 4 blocks – left enough room to be able to handle a Special Energy that provided 4 Energy, in the event they ever wanted to print such an Energy card. As we know, no such Energy was ever printed during those blocks, so it’s probably a stylistic choice – though it does make me wonder if they experimented with some sort of Quadruple Colorless Energy or otherwise.
The HGSS era template for Special Energy expands this bar even further, and could’ve accommodated a Special Energy card that provided 5 Energy, but I wouldn’t expect they ever experimented with something providing *that many* Energy. Here, it’s almost *definitely* stylistic.

A new special energy card sorta like this is coming back in SV11!!
