What it does
This attack also does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
If this Pokémon didn't move from the Bench to the Active Spot this turn, this attack does nothing.
This Pokémon's ancient genes have awakened. It is now so extraordinarily strong that it can easily lift a cruise ship with one fin.

Where it came from
Palafin, the Hero Pokémon introduced in the Paldea region, serves as the focal point of this card from the Scarlet & Violet Black Star Promos set. Released as number 036, it was distributed as a promotional insert to celebrate the expansion of the trading card game into the ninth generation of the video games, where Palafin’s unique 'Zero to Hero' ability became a defining mechanical feature.
The card features an illustration by the artist Teeziro, who captures the Pokémon in its base form. The design leans into the bright, clean aesthetic characteristic of the Scarlet & Violet era, emphasizing the character's aquatic nature and its cheerful, unassuming persona before its transformation into its more powerful Hero Form.
