Item Finder
Oracle Text
Discard 2 of the other cards from your hand in order to put a Trainer card from your discard pile into your hand.
Card Details
Set
Character Background
Item Finder is one of the clearest early Pokémon TCG value tools, turning your discard pile into a second hand at the cost of two other cards. In Base Set terms, that makes it especially strong in control and grindy tempo decks that can afford to trade raw card count for flexibility, but it also has combo applications whenever a single Trainer is more important than the two cards you pitch. Its best use is to rebuy a key piece like Professor Oak, Bill, Pokémon Breeder, or Switch at exactly the right moment, effectively giving your deck more copies of its best Trainers. The trick is deckbuilding discipline: pair Item Finder with discard-heavy draw so the cards you throw away are already replaceable, and avoid overloading on narrow Trainers you may not want to recycle. Because it is a Trainer itself, it fits neatly into any list that wants repeated access to its utility package rather than pure aggression.
