Read more ↓Switch is not a Pokémon but an Item card, a fundamental tool within the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Item cards represent various objects or devices that trainers use to gain an advantage during battle, drawing directly from the extensive universe of the Pokémon video games and anime where trainers utilize a wide array of items to support their Pokémon. Unlike Pokémon cards, Item cards do not have a specific generation or evolution line, nor do they possess a type or natural habitat in the traditional sense. Their "behavior" is defined by their effect within the game, which in this case facilitates strategic repositioning of Pokémon. Item cards are a staple in every TCG set, providing crucial strategic depth and reflecting the resource management aspect of the core Pokémon games. Their cultural significance lies in their direct connection to the trainer's toolkit, embodying the strategic choices and tactical planning essential to both the video games and the card game.
