Switch Cart - another decent swithing card, nonetheless. 4 Geodudes
Cresselia - welp, that helps in the long run. 2-3

Cresselia caps out at 120 damage in Standard, but odds are that won't be met unless you build your deck around it. In most cases you're only moving 2-4 damage counters.

Switch Cart is basically Switch Raft that works for any deck, and is just flat out better than Switch and Switch Raft for that matter (outside of extremely niche decks that use cards like the above Cresselia or I suppose Charizard VStar though you could always just immediately Magma Basin to set up the damage again). I like it, because while Switch has always been a useful card, it has never really been overpowered and the extra benefit from this is more than fair.

Edit: Did Switch Cart always say basic on here? Definitely hits the potential as VMAX and Vstars gain the most from healing, as everything below is pretty easy to OHKO (even VMAXs and Vstars aren't safe from that). This pretty much means it's mostly only going to matter in the tankier basic V decks like Blissey V. In Expanded it will see more use with Tag Teams like Mew3 and ADP.

We were hopefully if any near card could fully replace an older card permanently, but this item could easily be used by the V-Pokemon

Switch Cart will fit in to Entei V decks very nicely

Makes sense for the unreliable retreat cost

Switch cart is so powerful and cute ? definitely getting rid of the normal Switch for it

 

[DarkMatterGaming]

Switch Cart is interesting. It's a bit too niche for my liking but interesting.

Cresselia seems like a theme deck card tbh

It doesn't fit in most of the decks tho

I bet Switch Cart is gonna be on theme decks,or whatever they're called now.

Switch Cart is Switch, but also heals HP? Did they seriously just power creep Switch?
