 Yes, Splash is an even more limited level up and "does nothing." That's the point. IYKYK. |

It's a shame I didn't see this yesterday, as I could've done Rule 34 Renamon for a Sevens Shitpost. |

 Notes: - I asked DALL-E to give me Bulbasaur... it gave me whatever that thing is, but I thought it was funny so kept it. Also, apparently Pokeballs are green... (prompt: "a pokemon trainer returning bulbasaur to his pokeball, digital fantasy art") - When I played Pokemon cards with my sister (around 24 years ago), we didn't speak english really well yet and didn't really understand the rules. So we played in a way that you could only switch two Pokemon if they had the same retreat value. My design is an homage to that. Also, we had a ton of Switch cards... - The subtype Trainer would matter to some cards, like how Arcane mattered to some cards in Kamigawa. - The flavor text is a quote from the Pokemon Gameboy games (Silver in my case, specifically) when you switch Pokemon in a battle. |

 As the Tribal type allows noncreature cards to have creature types, so does the Pokémon type allows cards to have pokémon types. This way you control a Pokémon, and you can sacrifice a Spoink creature to summon your Grumpig. {Text}Spoink  Pokémon Creature - Spoink Boar  Haste : ~ gains flying until end of turn. At the beginning of your end step, if ~ didn’t attack this turn, sacrifice it. |

 Because no one responded to my question I am going to replace my entry. |

@ The Harlequin: For the record, I saw your post but I couldn't give you a definitely correct answer. My gut feeling would have been that you are technically correct, but I'd assume WotC wouldn't do this despite being covered by the rules simply to not confuse other people?
As usual, I use the evobar to give the card the "Godzilla treatment" as I prefer this more subtle template - even though I guess it's quite ironic to be used on a Pokémon but not to do an evolution mechanic |
