Upon pick up, choose a Skill card. At the start of combat, it will be in your hand.
The card is added to your normal starting hand. It takes the place of a drawn card. It is still considered to be drawn, so Snecko Eye does randomise its cost.
This relic will not appear if all your skill cards are starter-type.
Bottled Lightning is one of the three Bottle Relics. All Bottle Relics let the user choose a card of one type and start each combat with that card in hand. Bottled Lightning's effect is not the same as Innate. Duplicating a Bottled card will NOT draw the copy at the start of your hand (whereas it would if the card had Innate).
