Its Ability
Evolutionary Toxic
Once during your turn, when you play Crobat from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon, you may choose 1 of the Defending Pokémon. That Pokémon is now Poisoned. Put 2 damage counters instead of 1 on that Pokémon between turns.
Its attacks
Strike and Fade
Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 50 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) Flip a coin. If tails, shuffle Crobat and all cards attached to it back into your deck.
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.
WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT
- It has an Ability, Evolutionary Toxic. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- None of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read runs it. That does not make it a bad card — it means we have not seen it on a table yet.
- It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Golbat to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.
- Weakness Psychic +30. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 1,909 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
Who plays it
None of the tournament lists we have read mentions this card. That happens with a card that has just come out, or one players have not tried yet.
