#110 Energy Retrieval - Base Set 2 (base4)

Energy Retrieval is a Trainer card from the Base Set 2, released in February 2000. Designed by artist Keiji Kinebuchi, it is classified as Uncommon rarity. The card’s primary function is outlined in its rule, allowing players to trade one card from their hand for up to two basic Energy cards from their discard pile. This mechanic provides a strategic advantage by recouping resources during gameplay. The card’s themecolor, a warm amber tone, aligns with its functional role in resource management. It belongs to the Base series, reflecting its place in the early evolution of the Pokémon TCG. The absence of attack or ability descriptors underscores its focus on facilitating deck interactions rather than direct combat. Its unique rule structure makes it a notable card for players seeking to optimize their Energy resources.
