In this card, Smeargle is depicted in a whimsical moment, surrounded by vibrant swirls of color that reflect its artistic nature. The Pokémon appears to be playfully splattering paint, embodying its role as a painter in its world. Its curious expression and the fluid oozing from its tail suggest a sense of creativity and spontaneity. This scene captures the essence of Smeargle's character, inviting viewers into its imaginative realm.
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.
