As long as Old Amber is on your Bench, prevent all damage done to Old Amber by attacks (both yours and your opponent's).

Rules

Play Old Amber as if it were a Colorless Basic Pokémon. (Old Amber counts as a Trainer card as well, but if Old Amber is Knocked Out, this counts as a Knocked Out Pokémon.) Old Amber can't be affected by any Special Conditions and can't retreat. At any time during your turn before your attack, you may discard Old Amber from play. (This doesn't count as a Knocked Out Pokémon.)

Artwork Description

The artwork on this card depicts a luminous, golden amber resting on a reflective surface, surrounded by abstract metallic structures and warm glowing orbs, evoking a mysterious and ancient atmosphere within a futuristic setting.

Cameos

Aerodactyl

Playability Overview

Old Amber provides a unique defensive buffer that forces strategic planning around bench protection, but its inability to retreat or be affected by conditions limits offensive flexibility.

Binder Inspiration

Main Binder Theme: Fossil RevivalThis card has a cool, retro vibe with its bright orb and metallic sheen. It would fit perfectly on a "Fossil Finds" page, where you could showcase other Trainer cards that revolve around resurrection or ancient Pokémon. Pair it with cards like Fossil Excavation or other fossil-themed trainers to build a cohesive section.Additional Binder Suggestions: Cave / Strategic / Sleek / Fossil Hunt / Revival Strategy
