Dunsparce
Dunsparce has appeared in several sets: Temporal Forces (TEF 128) and Prismatic Evolutions (PRE 79). It is the same card every time — it plays the same, only the artwork and the price change. Here is what it does once it is on the table.
What the card itself says
Everything below is written on the card itself: how much health it has, what it fears, and what its attacks cost.
ITS ATTACKS
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 retreats for free. You can pull it back to the Bench whenever you like, even with no Energy on it at all.
- Mega Lopunny ex / Dudunsparce runs it in 45 of the 51 lists we have read, seen across 42 different tournaments.
- It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,150 tournament lists we have read, 733 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
- Mark H, and that is the letter the next rotation takes away. After that you will not be able to play it in Standard.

Where to find it
You've just read a page about the game. We can do far more with one match.
Everything above is about the game in general. The thing we're really good at is one single match: yours. When a game ends, Pokémon TCG Live leaves you a log — the written record of everything that happened, turn by turn. Paste it here and we'll replay each of your decisions hundreds of times, then tell you which one actually cost you the game.
It's free and there's no account to make. Your log stays in your browser: your browser is what replays the game.
