Shiftry/Delcatty/Furret (TCG)

Shiftry/Delcatty/Furret
Shiftry and Furret Types used Major cards Shiftry, Delcatty, Furret, and Dunsparce Era 2004

Shiftry/Delcatty/Furret was a Pokémon Trading Card Game deck archetype that saw success toward the end of the 2003-2004 season, after the release of EX Hidden Legends in June 2004. It lacks a more concise name; players of the era would likely refer to it simply as Shiftry, which is a bit of a misnomer (at least in a historical context) because the deck would not have functioned without the support provided by Delcatty and Furret.
