This one’s going to get a bunch of play. Pursuit Blast is a two-Energy attack that does 30 damage to an opponent’s benched Pokémon, except there’s an exceptional twist: If that benched Pokémon was retreated the last turn, the attack does 120 damage, and that’s pure evil. What a brilliant way to police those god-awful Comfey players who take half an hour for every sodding turn: most of their bench will be vulnerable every single turn.

Put a Dark Energy on there too and you can deliver Shrieking Poison, 90 damage and adding Confused and Poisoned, which is great. But that Pursuit Blast is a brilliant addition to the game, and I can’t wait to see it messing with Lost Zone players.

It also has the above gorgeous Alternate Art version, which is an image you can just pore over. Search it an you’ll eventually spot a Paras and a Diglett. It’s a great one to pull, because you won’t want to pay the current $40 it’s going for.
