Banette
Oracle Text
Attack Shadow Steal (10+): Does 10 damage plus 20 more damage for each Special Energy card in your opponent's discard pile.
Attack Darkness Chant: Count the number of Basic Pokémon or Evolution cards in your discard pile. Put that many damage counters on the Defending Pokémon. You can't put more than 6 damage counters on the Defending Pokémon in this way.
Card Details
Character Background
Banette from Hidden Legends is a naturally sinister Stage 1 Psychic attacker that rewards a control-oriented game plan, especially one built to stock the opponent’s discard pile with Special Energy and to keep your own discard pile full of Pokémon. Shadow Steal is the cleaner tempo attack: even a modest amount of opposing Special Energy in the discard can turn Banette into a threatening 50- or 70-damage swing, making it excellent against decks that rely on Double Rainbow Energy, Scramble Energy, or other special attachments. Darkness Chant pushes the card toward a grindy damage-spread/control role, since it can place up to six damage counters based on Pokémon in your discard pile. That makes discard self-mill, aggressive trading, and evolution-heavy lists strong partners. Pair Banette with effects that dump your own Pokémon into the discard and with disruption that forces Energy losses, then use its attacks to punish both board state and resource management rather than racing for raw damage.
