Its Ability

Form ChangeChangement de forme

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for any Deoxys and switch it with Deoxys Defense Forme. (Any cards attached to Deoxys Defense Forme, damage counters, Special Conditions, and effects on it are now on the new Pokémon.) If you do, put Deoxys Defense Forme on top of your deck. Shuffle your deck afterward. You can't use more than 1 Form Change Poké-Power each turn.Une seule fois lors de votre tour (avant votre attaque), vous pouvez chercher dans votre deck une autre Deoxys et l'échanger avec Deoxys Forme Défense. (Toutes les cartes qui lui sont attachées, marqueurs de dégât, États Spéciaux et autres effets se trouvent maintenant sur le nouveau Pokémon.) Placez alors Deoxys Forme Défense au dessus de votre deck. Ensuite, mélangez votre deck. Vous ne pouvez pas utiliser plus d'1 Poké-Power Changement de forme par tour.

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

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

  2. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,492 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

    Weakness Psychic ×2. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,492 tournament lists we have read, 2,030 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.
