What does 'Burn' mean in Pokemon Cards?
'Burn' means your Pokemon is in trouble! Takes extra damage each turn unless you're lucky with a coin flip. Not as cuddly as it sounds.

In the world of Pokemon Cards, 'Burn' is a special condition. Think of it like your Pokemon got a little too close to a Charizard's flame breath. In game terms, a Burned Pokemon takes damage between turns. At the start of each player's turn, before they draw, they flip a coin. If heads, the Pokemon heals off the Burn, no harm no foul. But if tails, the Pokemon takes 20 damage. Keep some Burn Heals handy!
