# Switch (Japanese) #016 — Mudkip Constructed Starter Deck

## Summary

Switch is about as plain as Trainer cards get, and in this Japanese starter deck it sits in the bulk slot, a utility staple that came packed in to make the deck playable out of the box. The art is tidy: a Torchic and a Pokémon silhouette trade places on a glowing blue grid, with a green swap arrow below. Released in January 2003, this Mudkip Constructed Starter Deck copy predates the English Ruby & Sapphire Switch by about five months.
