The strategy of the Holon Engine is to use Holon [[Supprter card (TCG)|supporters]] to quickly burn through the player's deck and root out the cards they need to put together combos very early in the game. The key card in the deck is {{TCG ID|EX Delta Species|Holon Transciever|98}}, which allows a player to search their deck for any [[Supprter card (TCG)|supporter]] card with Holon in its name and add it to their hand. | ||

As a result, components of the engine ({{TCG ID|EX Delta Species|Holon Transceiver|98}} especially) became highly valuable, making it difficult for players with limited resources to construct competitive decks. The high value for these cards has been listed by [[Pokémon Organized Play|POP]] officials as a reason for the [[Rotation (TCG)|rotation]] of {{TCG|EX Delta Species}} out of the 2007-2008 Modified format. | ||
