Bug Catching Set
Bug Catching Set arrived with Prismatic Evolutions on 17 January 2025. Here is what it does once it is on the table, and what it is worth right now.
What the card itself says
Every line in this block is copied straight off the card. Nothing rounded, nothing judged.
What to make of it
Every line below comes from a number. Either it is printed on the card, or we counted it on tournament lists. You will not find a score here — you will find what matters when you decide whether to run it.
WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT
- Festival Lead runs it in 24 of the 24 lists we have read, seen across 20 different tournaments.
- No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- Mark H, and that is the letter the next rotation takes away. After that you will not be able to play it in Standard.
What it costs
We have no price to show you for this card today. The link below takes you where it sells, and you will see the day's numbers there.
Who plays it
We read tournament decklists one by one. The match is made on the set code printed at the bottom of the card, the one the player copied onto the list — never on the name, because two cards sometimes share one.

Where to find it
You've just read a page about the game. We can do far more with one match.
Everything above is about the game in general. The thing we're really good at is one single match: yours. When a game ends, Pokémon TCG Live leaves you a log — the written record of everything that happened, turn by turn. Paste it here and we'll replay each of your decisions hundreds of times, then tell you which one actually cost you the game.
It's free and there's no account to make. Your log stays in your browser: your browser is what replays the game.
