WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT
- 140 HP, and nothing in Majestic Dawn goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.
- It has an Ability, Dragon Pulse. 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.
- Weakness Colorless ×2. Against a Colorless Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 2,362 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.
