Pot Helmet - when I first saw it on the leaks, It has help GXs and Vs since it blocks something. It wasn't. It only good on non-Rule Box, single-prized Pokemon, that are too fragile to use it. 3
Fresh Water Set - I believe it was heal 30, I might be wrong. Still nah gud card, considering its... Oh wait. 3-4

There's a few Single Prize scenarios that could have a math save with Pot Helmet, like Torterra (190) against turboless Arceus (200-30=170). It's minor, but does have fringe uses, and unlike Big Charm having it removed after the attack doesn't KO.

A tool on a Stage 2?

Shocked you don't see its potential in a falinks deck, 4 falinks v on the bench + your active falinks with this attack =110 less damage

 

[Flygonite]

Falinks decks already have trouble with consistency - which means they want to play Lucky Egg - and they already have Cape of Toughness which is arguably better because it can be used on both Falinks V and non-rulebox Falinks.

How?

Oh I read it as Water Pokèmon,so I tought it was a good card for Empoleon.
My bad.

Big Charm is not damage reduction, it's +30HP and also it doesn't have to be removed even if the hit didn't take down the pokemon.

Fresh Water Set reprint? Not Heavy Ball or Dusk Ball? Or Revive? Reprints suck these days..
