Origin
The original had no disadvantage to playing it, instantly removing any TCG Energy card attached to the opponent's Pokémon. Often, a player could save these cards in their hand until the opponent had charged up their Active Pokémon to attack with full power, then decimate the Pokémon's Energy source with no trouble. With this card, however, a player must get lucky with coin flips.
