pokemon the movie pikachu card TCG 1999 Promo *MINT PSA 9* Retreat Cost 5 Assorted Detective Pikachu Movie

If a triggered ability asks you to pay a cost, you pay that cost for the copy separately

Yes, you read that correctly

This ability works wonderfully with unblockable creatures and your Ninjas, letting you sneak damage in, refilling your battlefield with a new creature that also has a form of evasion, while at the same time giving you a powerful blocker to deter oncoming attacks

Against versions of The Deck that play a ton of Fellwar Stones it is not that effective, because they will likely be able to generate white mana from Fellwar, and can then Disenchant your Blood Moon, meaning you spent 3 mana to cast a speed bump
