Its Ability
Burning Head
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may look at the top 3 cards of your deck, choose 1 of them, and put it into your hand. Discard the other 2 cards. This power can't be used if Infernape is affected by a Special Condition.
Its attacks
Flare Up
150Search your discard pile for 8 Fire Energy cards, show them to your opponent, and shuffle them into your deck. (This attack does nothing if you don't have 8 Fire Energy cards in your discard pile.)
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
- Flare Up hits for 150 on 2 Energy. Nothing in Diamond & Pearl hits harder for that price.
- It has an Ability, Burning Head. 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 Water +30. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 1,351 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.
