Typically, Pokémon Powers are additional effects that the card's player can trigger once or multiple times during their turn, before they attack. However, before the {{TCG|Expedition}} set, some cards, such as {{TCG ID|Base Set|Charizard|4}}, had Pokémon Powers that were always active. In this case, all {{TCG|Energy card}}s attached to Charizard provided {{TCG|Fire Energy}} at all times. The player did not have to announce that they were using the power or do anything to trigger it, as it was always active. After the release of {{TCG|Expedition}}, Pokémon Powers were split into two groups: '''Poké-POWERS''' and '''Poké-BODIES'''. Poké-POWERS are special effects that the player must trigger or announce using. A Poké-BODY's effect is one that is in effect regardless. The player does not need to announce the use of a Poké-BODY, since it is never not in use. In essence, a Poké-POWER's effect is not always active, while a Poké-BODY's effect is. | |||
