''Single-card engines are engines that are able to function virtually by themselves.  However, they are '''often''' used in combination with other cards.''

The ''Bibarel'' was centered on [[Bibarel (Brilliant Stars 121|Bibarel]]'s ''Industrious Incisors'' {{TCG|Ability}}.  Once per turn, ''Industrious Incisors'' allowed a player to draw cards until they had five cards in their hand. Being a Stage 1 Pokemon, Bibarel was able to be set up fast, and had the advantage of not needing to discard a card from the player's hand, compared to cards like [[Cinccino (Sword and Shield 147|Cinccino]]'s Make Do. The engine further got an upgrade with the release of the {{TCG|Crown Zenith}} expansion, which introduced [[Bidoof (Crown Zenith 111|Bidoof]]. Bidoof's ability, ''Carefree Countenance'', allowed it to be protected from damage dealt while it was on the bench, preventing cards such as [[Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX (Battle Styles 88)|Rapid Strike Urshifu VMAX]] and [[Radiant Greninja (Astral Radiance 46)|Radiant Greninja]] to Knock Out it for easy Prize Cards.
