Pokemon TCG Battle Styles Collector's Chest Tin Lunchbox Spring 2021 Sealed Case - 9 Tins
Single Strike cards deliver strong, hard-hitting attacks, while Rapid Strike cards are about sneaky, technical strikes. But it’s not just Pokemon that can have a Battle Style — there will be Trainer and Energy cards with them too! That’s because all cards of the same Battle Style will be able to work together. The goal of the new mechanic is to encourage players to build decks that focus on one Battle Style.
As you can see on Houndoom, its “Single Strike Roar” Ability allows you to search your deck for a Single Strike Energy to attach to one of your Single Strike Pokemon. There will also be a new Emboar with a “Fighting Fury Stance” Ability, which allows you to boost the attack damage of all Single Strike Pokemon, and an Octillery with a “Rapid Strike Search” Ability, which allows you to search your deck for a Rapid Strike card.
The mechanic will continue into future sets. Not all cards will feature a Battle Style, however. The mechanic is essentially a modern version of Gym Leader Pokemon, Team Aqua and Magma cards, Holon Pokemon, SP Pokemon, etc. Cards grouped together under a certain label to work together.
