“The card 'Mystery Plate γ' captures a serene moment in a dimly lit cave, where ancient stones are etched with cryptic symbols. Soft beams of light filter through the rocky crevices, illuminating the mysterious tablet that seems to hold untold secrets. This tranquil scene invites contemplation, as if the very essence of the cave is steeped in history and intrigue. It evokes a sense of wonder about the Pokémon world, suggesting that there is always more to discover just beyond the surface.”

Retro Cave
If your opponent has 5 or more Prizes, shuffle your hand into your deck and then draw 6 cards. If your opponent has exactly 2 Prizes, choose 1 of your opponent's Evolved Pokémon. Your opponent puts the top card on that Evolved Pokémon on the bottom of his or her deck. (This counts as devolving that Pokémon.)
