Switch 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon with 1 of the Defending Pokémon. Your opponent chooses the Defending Pokémon to switch. The new Defending Pokémon is now Burned.

Artwork Description

The artwork on this card depicts a fiery, molten creature with glowing yellow eyes emerging from a lava-covered landscape. Smoke spirals from an active volcano, contrasting with the bright blue sky and fluffy clouds above.

Playability Overview

Slugma's ability to force opponent switches and inflict Burn offers strategic disruption, but its low damage and HP limit its effectiveness to early game tempo control rather than sustained offense.
