Its Ability

Echoed Voice

30

During your next turn, this Pokémon's Echoed Voice attack does 80 more damage (before 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

    200 HP. Only 5 cards in Black Bolt carry more.

  2. A strength

    Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.

  3. A strength

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

  4. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  5. A strength

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

  6. 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.

  7. Keep in mind

    It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  8. Keep in mind

    Weakness Darkness ×2. Against a Darkness Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 1,987 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
