Its Ability
Dragon DNA
Gyarados can use any attack from its Basic Pokémon. (You still have to pay for that attack's Energy cost.) If Gyarados uses any attack from its Basic Pokémon, that attack does 30 more damage to the Active Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance).
Its attacks
Enrage
80Flip a coin until you get tails. For each heads, choose 1 card from your opponent's hand without looking and discard it. If the first coin is tails, Gyarados is now Confused.
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
- Enrage hits for 80 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Mysterious Treasures hits harder for that price.
- It has an Ability, Dragon DNA. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- 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.
- 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 Lightning +30. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 281 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.
