About this card
Every other Shining of the period asks for Energy outside its own types, and Steelix is the exception, with the Metal and Fighting on Crushing Earth standing in for Steel and Ground. The trade is a retreat cost of four and an attack that shuts the card down for the following turn even when the coin comes up tails and nothing happens. Sugimori lights the gold body from behind against a violet night, with fire streaking up on either side of the head.
Card details
Types
Attacks
Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 10 damage to each Benched Pokémon (yours and your opponent's). (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) If tails, this attack does nothing. Either way, Shining Steelix can't attack during your next turn.
