Its attacks

Strange Hacking

Your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Confused. You may move any number of damage counters from your opponent's Pokémon to their other Pokémon in any way you like.

Psychic

10+

This attack does 50 more damage for each Energy attached to your opponent's Active Pokémon.

What to make of it

Have a look at what it does well, then at what will get in your way. After that you'll know whether it belongs in your deck.

  1. A strength

    Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.

  2. A strength

    Alakazam / Dudunsparce runs it in 2 of the 34 lists we have read, seen across 2 different tournaments.

  3. Keep in mind

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Kadabra to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Darkness ×2. Against a Darkness Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 1,987 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

  5. Keep in mind

    Mark H, and that is the letter the next rotation takes away. After that you will not be able to play it in Standard.
