New Pokémon BREAK!

Continuing the growth of Pokémon BREAK in the Pokémon TCG: XY—BREAKpoint expansion, this set includes 5 of these amazing new Pokémon BREAK: Delphox BREAK (14/124), Omastar BREAK (19/124), Carbink BREAK (51/124), Bronzong BREAK (62/124), and Lugia BREAK (79/124).

Overview of New Pokémon BREAK

Delphox BREAK adds the Flare Witch Ability to your Delphox when played. This lets you grab a   Energy card from your deck once per turn and attach it to 1 of your Pokémon! Incredibly helpful for those   decks that burn through Energy quickly!

Omastar BREAK adds the Dangerous Tentacle Ability which lets you switch 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon-EX with his or her Active Pokémon. Just remember: depending on which Pokémon-EX it is and how much Energy is attached, you might be doing your opponent a favor! The best move, of course, is to target a weakened Pokémon-EX so you can Knock it Out and take two Prize cards. Or, grab a Hoopa-EX or Shaymin-EX that your opponent usually wants to keep out of harm's way!

Carbink BREAK adds the Diamond Gift attack to your Carbink. When you attack for  , you put 20 damage on the Defending Pokémon and (this is the great part) you attach 2 Energy cards from your discard pile to 1 of your   Pokémon. You can even get Special Energy this way. It's super-useful Energy recycling!

Bronzong BREAK adds Metal Rain, an attack for    that lets you discard as many   Energy as you like from Bronzong BREAK. Each discard means you do 30 damage to an opposing Pokémon of your choice—and you can split that up exactly as you please, doing 30 here and 30 there or piling all the damage on a bigger Pokémon for a Knock Out!

Lugia BREAK adds the Flash of Destruction attack for     , which does 150 damage and discards 2 Energy attached to Lugia BREAK. Everyone loves a big hitter, and this one's a smasher!
