Tornadus (EP89) Hurricane attack states:
{C}{C}{C} 80
Move a basic Energy from this Pokémon to 1 of your Benched Pokémon.
Am I allowed to use this attack if I meet the energy cost, but I don't have any basic energies attached to Tornadus to move to a benched pokemon?
Lets do some quick math.
There are 30 Uncommon Cards in EP. There are 3 Uncommon cards per Booster Pack. Therefore there is a 3/30 (simplified 1/10) chance of getting a Catcher (or any other uncommon) in a pack. There are 36 Booster Packs in a Box so multiply 1/10 by 36 and you get an average...
I completely agree. Between the massive advantage of going first with the current rules, the serious use of babies, and flippy cards (mainly Reversal) games usually go in to the player who gets better flips.
