Shaymin (Triumphant Light) Pros and Cons

Basic Pokemon with a Strong Ability

Shaymin's Ability reduces the Energy cost for retreating Basic Pokemon on your field by 1. This makes switching Pokemon easier, but note that the effect does not apply when Shaymin is in the Active Spot.

Not Meant for Battle

Shaymin has 70 HP and an Attack that deals 30 damage for 2 Energy, making it similar to a typical unevolved Basic Pokemon. While it has enough HP to survive briefly and can use Colorless Energy for its Attack, its main role is supporting the team with its Ability rather than engaging in battle.
