It can be used to protect your board and life total while giving another opponent an extra turn, potentially making them a target for the next turn
Red/White in the format should be able to get this going pretty effectively, and obviously the boost it gives is at its best when you have a bunch of creatures anyway
The player managed to slow down alot of decks by using Dusknoir SFs Night Spin to mess with the energy drops of the opponents Pokmon, but since it requires 3 total energy to attack makes it hard to use effectively, as you cant abuse Upper Energy with it either due to the 2 P Energy cost in the attack
You won't get to draw a card and discard a card
Some of the more well-known creature types are elves, goblins, merfolk, and zombies
