Read more ↓Wait and See Hammer is not a Pokémon, but rather an Item card in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Item cards are a type of Trainer card that represent various objects or tools that a Pokémon Trainer might use during a battle. They are an integral part of the game's strategy, allowing players to manipulate the game state, search for cards, heal Pokémon, or disrupt their opponent's strategy. Item cards have been a staple of the Pokémon TCG since its inception, evolving in their mechanics and design over the different eras of the game. They reflect the diverse items found within the Pokémon video games and anime, from Poké Balls to Potions to more specialized tools like this hammer. The strategic depth they add to gameplay is immense, often dictating the pace and outcome of matches. This particular card, being an Item, doesn't have Pokédex lore, natural habitat, diet, behavior, generation introduced, evolution line, or type matchups in the traditional sense of a Pokémon. Instead, its significance lies purely in its gameplay effect and how it interacts with the broader game environment.
