Escape Rope Card Facts & History
5 facts about this card
Card History
This card is a true secret rare: Escape Rope appears in Burning Shadows as card 163/147, placing it beyond the set’s main numbering and giving a humble Item card the same chase-card treatment collectors usually associate with marquee hits.
In-Game
Escape Rope is one of the franchise’s oldest utility items, introduced in Generation I, so this gold card turns a classic adventure tool into a premium Sun & Moon-era collectible.
In-Game
One of Escape Rope’s strangest bits of game trivia is that in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen it can be used to leave Saffron Gym, making that Gym a uniquely odd match for a card built around forcing both players to switch positions.
Card History
In the TCG, Escape Rope’s effect makes both players switch their Active Pokémon with a Benched one, with the opponent forced to choose first, which is why competitive players have long valued it as a clever tempo card rather than a simple mobility Item.
Artist
This Burning Shadows printing is illustrated by Toyste Beach, and Bulbapedia’s card record specifically tags the gold secret rare among that artist’s credited Pokémon TCG works.
