Collectors of the Stormfront set need this card to finish it.

08Competitive Playability

Tier: None

Stage 1 Lumineon with 80 HP; top attack around 30 damage. Functions as an evolution-chain piece rather than a tournament attacker.

09Card Moves and Abilities

Ability: Fin Luster

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Lumineon is your Active Pokémon, you may look at your opponent's hand. If your opponent's Bench isn't full, choose 1 Basic Pokémon from your opponent's hand, and put it onto his or her Bench. Then, switch it with the Defending Pokémon. This power can't be used if Lumineon is affected by a Special Condition.

Quick Swim Cost:

Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 20 damage to that Pokémon. This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness or Resistance.

Elegant Swim Cost: Water · 30 damage

Flip a coin. If heads, prevent all effects of an attack, including damage, done to Lumineon during your opponent's next turn.

Weakness: Lightning +20
Retreat cost: 0

10Grading and Population

PSA 10 estimate: Modern Common/Uncommon — most copies are not graded because raw value rarely justifies the fee.

Graded populations stay low; usually collected raw or sleeved rather than slabbed.

Other graders: Negligible BGS/CGC submission volume.
