Card text

All prints

You can't have more than 1 ACE SPEC card in your deck.

You can't have more than 1 card with the same name in your deck. If a card would go to the discard pile, put it in the Lost Zone instead.

{{{ruletext}}}

Each player looks at the top 5 cards of his or her deck. Your opponent rearranges his or her 5 cards as he or she likes and puts them on top of his of her deck face up. Then, you rearrange your 5 cards as you like and put them on top of your deck face up. (If a player shuffles his or her deck when it still has face up cards in it, that player puts them face down again before shuffling.)

Do Nothing   At the beginning of your turn, flip a coin. If heads, you can do nothing during your turn. If tails, your opponent can do nothing during his or her next turn.

Trivia

Origin

Flash is a move introduced in Generation I that could be used outside of battle to illuminate pitch-black caves. This card's effect of revealing cards in the player's deck and rearranging them could be an allusion to Flash's effect outside of battle.
