What it does
As long as Plusle is your Active Pokémon, whenever your other Active Pokémon, if any, attacks, you may use Cheer On after the first attack (you still need the necessary Energy to use Cheer On). You can't use Cheer On more than once in this way even if your other Active Pokémon has the Chain of Events Poké-Body.
Remove 1 damage counter from each of your Pokémon (including Plusle).
Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 20 damage to that Pokémon. If you choose Pokémon-ex, this attack does 40 damage instead. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

Where it came from
Released in the 2003 EX Dragon expansion, this Plusle card represents one of the early appearances of the 'Cheering Pokémon' in the Pokémon Trading Card Game. Introduced during the third generation of the franchise, the set focused on the dragon-type theme and featured the debut of many Hoenn-region species. As a rare holo card, it was designed to highlight Plusle's signature electric typing, utilizing the foil treatment common to the era's chase cards to accentuate its energetic aesthetic.
The card's artwork, illustrated by Kagemaru Himeno, captures the character's playful and spirited nature. Himeno, a long-time contributor to the Pokémon card franchise, often emphasizes the personality and dynamic movement of the creatures she illustrates. This card is remembered by collectors for its clean composition and as a nostalgic artifact from the mid-2000s, serving as a distinct piece of the EX series era that transitioned the game toward the mechanics established in the Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire games.
