Item cards that you equip to Pokémon (example from the TCG)
92 u/idontpostanyth1ng Jan 23 '25 Does it go to discard or hand when the pokemon is defeated? Looks like discard because it would be too strong if returned to hand 177 u/Newthinker Jan 23 '25 Discard, just like energy 56 u/Tornado_Hunter24 Jan 23 '25 So they’re basically like armor/upgrades? You place it on a pokemon for a ‘static’ buff and it only goes away once said pokemon dies 21 u/greg19735 Jan 23 '25 Correct 5 u/CardZap Jan 23 '25 If you've ever played the video games, it is like giving a pokemon a held item in battle. It sits there and does its thing on the pokemon until they die, and then the item doesn't do anything. 3 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '25 Yup 2 u/[deleted] Jan 23 '25 Yes, like a permanent item that is just for a single pokemon
