CARDEX BACKGROUND
The story behind this Trainer card
Counter Gain reduces the attack costs of the Pokémon holding it by one Colorless Energy if you have more Prize cards remaining than your opponent. The advantage therefore depends on a comparison between the two players. The Tool lowers an attack cost in this situation without attaching Energy or promising increased damage from its holder.
Background on this Trainer card’s printed effect; its edition, language and finish remain distinct.A detail worth noticing
Having an equal number of Prize cards does not meet the condition: you must have strictly more remaining. The reduction affects a Colorless component of the attack cost, rather than removing an attached Energy card from the Pokémon.
