Description

Surge (gym1-17 Unlimited Holofoil) is a Trainer card from the Gym Heroes set featuring artwork by Ken Sugimori and printed as a Rare Holo. Its effect lets you put a Basic Pokémon from your hand into play as your Active Pokémon while moving your previous Active Pokémon to the Bench, requiring at least one Basic Pokémon in hand and space on the Bench. The card functions as a tactical switch effect useful for changing attackers without paying Retreat Cost or waiting for evolutions.
