Forretress's ability to spread damage counters when evolving fits well in strategies focused on weakening multiple opponent Pokémon gradually before finishing them off.
Binder Inspiration
Main Binder Theme: Hidden FortressThis Forretress artwork has a unique charm with its textured rock surface and vibrant, pastel colors surrounding it. I’d suggest placing it on a "Mystical Hideaway" page, where it can be complemented by other cards featuring hidden or defensive Pokémon. The balance of earthy tones makes it a great fit for a nature-themed row.Additional Binder Suggestions: Cave / Mysterious / Pastel / Defense / Nature's Secrets
