Bastiodon, Rampardos, Mysterious Fossil, and Gardenia from SM5 Revealed!
Japan is currently holding an official livestream for their 2018 Champions League tournament where several new SM5 cards have been revealed! We’ll keep watching the stream for new cards, so be sure to keep checking back here once in a while in case something new is revealed.
Mysterious Fossil – Trainer – HP60
ItemPlay this card as if it were a 60 HP [C] Basic Pokemon. At any time during your turn (before your attack), you may discard this card from play.
This card can’t retreat.
You may play as many Item cards as you like during your turn (before your attack).
Note: This card has the same text as Robo Substitute, but not this sentence: “If this card is Knocked Out, your opponent can’t take any Prize Cards for it.” So if your opponent Knocks Out Mysterious Fossil, they’ll presumably be able to take a Prize.
It also appears Cranidos, Shieldon, Lileep, and Anorith will evolve from Mysterious Fossil now. Mysterious Fossil’s artwork depicts their fossils. So perhaps we’ll get Lileep and Anorith in this set or in one releasing soon.
