What it does
Your opponent reveals their hand. You may discard a Supporter card you find there and use the effect of that card as the effect of this attack.
When this Pokémon sights its prey, it swirls its ribbonlike feelers as a distraction. A moment later, it pounces.

Where it came from
Sylveon, the Fairy-type Pokémon introduced in the sixth generation, debuted in the Forbidden Light expansion of the Pokémon Trading Card Game, which was released in May 2018. This set was part of the Sun & Moon series, drawing significant inspiration from the Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon video games. The set focused on the narrative of Necrozma and the light-driven transformations that defined the Alola region's later story arcs.
The card numbered 87/131 was illustrated by Kanako Eo, who has contributed numerous pieces to the Pokémon TCG. Her design for this specific Sylveon emphasizes the character's elegant, ribbon-like appendages and playful demeanor, capturing the whimsical aesthetic characteristic of the Fairy type. As a standard rare card within the set, it served as a accessible entry point for players looking to incorporate Fairy-type support into their decks during a period when the game mechanics were transitioning toward the powerful GX and Prism Star cards.
