Its Ability

Dual Armor

As long as Magcargo has any Fighting Energy attached to it, Magcargo is both Fire and Fighting type.

Its attacks

Smokescreen

30

If the Defending Pokémon tries to attack during your opponent's next turn, your opponent flips a coin. If tails, that attack does nothing.

Extra Flame

40+

If the Defending Pokémon is Pokémon-ex, this attack does 40 damage plus 30 more damage.

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

    It has an Ability, Dual Armor. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  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 Water ×2. 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.
