    I can only see this being used for its poke body.

    Does Retreat Aid stack?

      Yes! It doesn’t set the retreat to a specific number, it just reduces it by 2. If you had 2 Dodrio in play, it would reduce the retreat by 4 total.

    I believe Baby Pokémon would have already rotated by the time this was printed since the last Babies were printed in Skyridge & the format would be Ruby & Sapphire on at this point; all “Baby Pokémon” at that time wouldn’t be specially designated as so instead only bearing the “Baby Evolution” Poképower. Interesting to see this restriction all the way in Fire Red & Leaf Green.

      EX – FireRed/LeafGreen released August of 2004, so it only just missed being legal for the very end of the 2004 Standard Format (also known as the 2003-2004 Modified Format). It is possible they had intended there to be a larger overlap, or that the Japanese releases of the cards included such clarifications, so they kept it while translating.

      Plus, the Unlimited Format was still a thing. I know it technically still is even now, but the difference is many more people played it back then, and Unlimited tournaments (not part off the Championship series, of course) also still happened. It was still common in my area (Central Iowa) to have an Unlimited Format deck with you at Pokémon League. Standard (Modified) Format decks were actually less common at League; basically, the cut off between the truly casual and the players who were at least semi-serious was an intentionally Modified-legal deck. ;)
