Its attacks

Summon Storm

Flip 2 coins. If both of them are heads, this attack does 20 damage to each other Pokémon (even your own). Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for this attack.

Dragon Tornado

40

Unless this attack Knocks Out the Defending Pokémon, choose 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon and switch it with the Defending 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

    90 HP. Only 5 cards in Gym Challenge carry more.

  2. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 3. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  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

    Weakness Grass ×2. Against a Grass Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 2,021 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.

The other cards of this Pokémon

Two cards of the same Pokémon can be worth wildly different amounts — it depends on the set, the rarity and the artwork. We put all 60 Gyarados cards on one page, priciest first.
