Its attacks

Sacred Fire

This attack does 50 damage to 1 of your opponent’s Pokémon. (Don’t apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

Phoenix Burn

180

This Pokémon can’t use Phoenix Burn during your next turn.

Eternal Flame GX

Put 3 in any combination of Fire Pokémon-GX or Fire Pokémon-EX from your discard pile onto your Bench. (You can’t use more than 1 GX attack in a game.)

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

    Phoenix Burn hits for 180 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Burning Shadows hits harder for that price.

  2. 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.

  3. Keep in mind

    Weakness Lightning ×2. 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.
