Its attacks

Hammer-lanche

100×

Discard the top 6 cards of your deck, and this attack does 100 damage for each Basic Energy card that you discarded in this way.

Frost Barrier

200

During your opponent's next turn, this Pokémon takes 30 less damage from attacks (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

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

    350 HP. Only 2 cards in Mega Evolution carry more.

  2. A strength

    mega-abomasnow-ex runs it in 30 of the 30 lists we have read, seen across 20 different tournaments.

  3. A strength

    Mark I. It is one of the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J.

  4. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 4. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  5. Keep in mind

    It is a Mega Evolution ex, and that is the most expensive rule in the game. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 3 Prizes instead of one. They need six to win, so 2 knockouts on this card are enough. Send it out knowing that.

  6. Keep in mind

    Weakness Metal ×2. Against a Metal Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 477 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
