Interesting...
Ths is a neat card... Kinda, it's a great-catch-up card, but if your oponent only has 1 Pokémon, you'll get no more Pokémon that he will.

Main Stats:

It's average HP for a Call-for Family card, average Weakness and Resistance, not much to look out for (except an Electric deck >_< But it's not 30 to 50 HP)

Attacks:

Even Game - This is great for a "Call for Family" attack! I mean, think about it, how many times have you gotten 1 Pokémon and you're opponent gets 3? This is where this comes in handy :3. Think about it, "Count the number of your opponent's Pokémon" That includes Active AND Bench. "Search your Deck for up to THAT number of Basic Pokémon" Like a Holon's Mentor without the Discard penalty. "And put them onto your bench" It's perfect, because then you get a one-up on your opponent, and you can set up your bench a lot faster.

Stadium Play - If you use Stadium Play, and you put down the stadium, you get healed 10 damage on every one of your Pokémon, Slick. And if your Opponent put down a stadium (innevitable because I know how some people want to get the stadium out ASAP) Your opponent's team gets 10 damage, meaning the 10 damage to the active, then 10 damage to each of your opponent's benched Pokémon. The downfalls to this is, if you put down the stadium and you barely have any damage on your Pokémon (like, only 10 on your active) then it's not really that good, that and you NEED to use the attack, it isn't a Pokébody! And if your opponent owns the stadium and all of his Pokémon are super-powered with no damage, then kiss your Luvdisc goodbye because that's the only attack it's pulling off. There are downsides to this attack, depending on the situation... But it's still slick ^_~

Last Thoughts:

When I first saw this I was like... O.o That's a good card? Well, after reading the attacks more thoroughly it's true that this is a good card, good for a starter, but not so good as an "in-middle-of-the-game" or "end-of-game" card. This is another Bench-setting card, and can't really be over-used, especially if bad events occur, then the attacks just... flop.
