Its Ability

Total Freedom

Once during your turn, you may use this Ability. If this Pokémon is on the Bench, switch it with your Active Pokémon. Or, if this Pokémon is in the Active Spot, switch it with 1 of your Benched Pokémon.

Its attacks

Hunting Arrow

130

This attack also does 30 damage to 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched 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

    320 HP. Only 3 cards in Obsidian Flames carry more.

  2. A strength

    It has an Ability, Total Freedom. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. Keep in mind

    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.

  4. Keep in mind

    It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  5. Keep in mind

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

  6. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fire ×2. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 816 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

  7. Keep in mind

    Mark G, and that letter has already left the format. You can still play it at home, or keep it in your binder. In a Standard tournament, no: the letters allowed today are H, I, and J.

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.

When it came out

Obsidian Flames landed here on 11 August 2023.

In Japan these cards were already in shops on 28 July 2023, under the code SV3. That is 14 days ahead of us.
