this works amazingly in arceus luxray decks
but how many people have those
well i do
i run 3 or 4 of these in that deck
5-6/10 in normal decks that require tools
9/10 at least with more than 7 tools
i wouldnt run this at all if you had 3 or less tools

Perfect for Luxray decks. But it's a Supporter not a Pokemon so 8/10

Does what it does in amazing fashion. 8/10 in decks that need that tool. (IE Luxray AR, SP pokemon for the gain etc etc)

Finally a Tool finding Supporter. You can now use that huge stack of cards you used to mostly throw away. Cool intro to the retro (70's-ish looking) art that is coming with Legend, which gives it bonus points IMO.

9/10 only because you need at least 2 to be effective, but that second one turns up like a bad penny when you could really use something else. Otherwise 10/10

LoL, what else would you people want from a supporter for tools? From the discard too? Don't you think thats way too OP? I would even consider this version a little OP. Absolutely 10/10.

Only does one thing.

Does it very well.

If you need it, then you need it. Nothing else will do.

7/10 (it's niche, but it's a good niche)

An easy way to nab your needed Expert Belts and maybe Energy Gains. Can be very useful in decks that run a lot of tools. 6/10

Great skill card. Makes Pokemon less luck affected. Everyone should have teo of these just for a case... Works wonders in some SP-decks and in some Lucky Egg or Expert Belt based decks, if played right.

8.5/10

EDIT: Also awesome in Energy Link based decks!

Great for Luxray deck. It is the only thing to get a tool except Cyrus, but that only gets SP tools. I give it 8/10 because its a supporter. If you could search the discard pile too it would be broken.

Today's CotD is Department Store Girl from AR, a great card to use if your deck uses lots of Pokemon Tools. Being able to grab any 3 you want from your deck is definitely worth the use of a Supporter if your deck supports it, and getting to grab 3 lets you counter your opponent with Tools through a variety of ways: Bench Shield is you're anticipating sniping, Strength Charm if you need an extra 10 damage, etc.

Modified - 6/10 (Granted, most decks don't actually use many, if any, Tools, but for decks that rely on the use of them, this is a great Supporter to pick up)
Limited - 8/10 (If you grab any Tools you may as well pick this up, even if it's just 1)
Unlimited - 1/10 (Not much use here, though there are a lot more Tools)
