Escape Rope is an Item card from the GX Battle Boost set, released on October 20, 2017. It features artwork by Toyste Beach and is numbered 89 in the set. The card’s flavor text describes a scenario where each player swaps their Active Pokémon with one of their Benched Pokémon, with the opponent initiating the switch first. If a player lacks a Benched Pokémon, they skip the swap. The card has no listed HP value or attacks, reflecting its role as a strategic tool rather than a direct combatant. Its design emphasizes tactical maneuvering during battles. The GX Battle Boost set focuses on competitive play, and this card aligns with that theme through its unique interaction mechanics.
