Once per turn, when you play this card from your hand to onto your Bench, you may have your opponent switch their Active Pokemon with 1 of their Benched Pokemon (they choose).
CCC - Blast Wind 100
What do you guys think? Tornadus’s ability is somewhat similar to Phione, but I don’t think that it can be a good card because you don’t recycle Tornadus back to the deck.
