Pokémon Trading Card Game Professor’s Research

This official Pokémon Trading Card Game Supporter card features the dedicated Professor Elm, known for his research on Pokémon breeding and evolution. The artwork captures his studious and friendly demeanor.

Professor’s Research (Professor Elm) is one of the most powerful draw engines in the game. Its effect is straightforward and game-changing: “Discard your hand and draw 7 cards.” This allows you to completely refresh a poor hand, dig deep into your deck for key combo pieces, or simply generate massive card advantage. The cost of discarding your current hand is often negligible compared to the benefit of seeing seven new cards.

As a Supporter card, remember you may play only one during your turn. This card is a staple in almost every competitive deck, providing unmatched consistency and the ability to recover from almost any situation by accessing a large portion of your deck at once. This version with Professor Elm offers the same iconic effect with a beloved character from the Johto region.
