These mechanics are combined in the game-authored seed and in the current card data.

Cards for a Search Deck
Cards that carry the defining action. Each one shows the verified Play Effect behind it, so nothing here is a recommendation without a reason.

Support options
Mechanics the current data combines with this style. Counts are candidate cards, and the full list lives on the effect page.
Optional mechanics
Present in some builds, not part of the definition.
Evolution options
Evolution lines that the core cards sit on. Choosing one of these makes the deck evolution-dependent; skipping all of them keeps it evolution-free.

Internal Version 1.0 deck definitions that contain this style’s core cards. They are evidence that the strategy exists — not a deck list to copy, because an internal deck is not automatically legal for a player.

Build this style
The Deck Builder opens with the Search card pool already filtered. You still choose the 50 cards yourself, and copy limits, evolution gaps and effect coverage are checked as you build.
Search questions
What is the difference between search and draw?
Search lets you choose the card and shows how deep it looks; draw adds cards from the top without choosing them.
Browse Draw cards →Which search cards also evolve?
Some evolution cards search for the stage they are missing. The Evolution effect page lists those verified actions.
Browse Evolution effects →Can a deck be built on search alone?
Search finds cards but does not finish the game on its own, so it is normally paired with the payoff it is looking for — an evolution stage, a mill engine or a discard plan.
