Abilities
If your Active Pokémon is damaged by an opponent's attack (even if that Pokémon is Knocked Out), put 2 damage counters on the Attacking Pokémon. You can't put more than 2 damage counters in this way.
Attacks
If your opponent has any Benched Pokémon, this attack's base damage is 30 instead of 60 and this attack does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
Flip 2 coins. If both of them are tails, this attack does nothing.

Market Prices
Reference prices and active eBay asking prices side by side.
Cardmarket and TCGPlayer are marketplace reference signals. eBay values are median asking prices from active listings, so they help compare the market but are not sold-price confirmations.

What these prices mean

Avg 1/7/30 are average sale prices over the last 1, 7, or 30 days.
Low is the cheapest currently available listing, so it can be much lower than recent sales.
