The Smeargle card from Neo Discovery captures a whimsical moment where the Pokémon is immersed in its creative process. With its paintbrush-like tail, Smeargle seems to be playfully splattering colors against a backdrop of swirling stars and sparkles, embodying the spirit of an artist at work. The vibrant hues and dynamic movement suggest a sense of joy and freedom, as if Smeargle is expressing its unique personality through art. This scene invites viewers to appreciate the playful nature of creativity in the Pokém
If the Defending Pokémon attacked last turn, and Smeargle was in play during that attack, Smeargle copies that attack except for its Energy costs and anything else required in order to use that attack.
