Attacks
Ascension
Search your deck for a card that evolves from Cascoon and put it onto Cascoon. (This counts as evolving Cascoon.) Shuffle your deck afterward.
Poison ThreadThe Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned.
It never forgets any attack it endured while in the cocoon. After evolution, it seeks payback.

EX Hidden Legends Feebas is receiving errata for its "Ascension" attack to bring it in line with the Japanese version of the card. It should read, "Flip a coin. If heads, search your deck for a card that evolves from Feebas and put it on Feebas. (This counts as evolving Feebas.) Shuffle your deck afterward." Please note that this only affects Feebas; Vulpix's "Ascension" attack does not require a coin flip.
