Its Ability

Restructure

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may have your opponent switch 1 of your Active Pokémon with 1 of your Benched Pokémon. Then, you switch 1 of the Defending Pokémon with 1 of your opponent's Benched Pokémon. This power can't be used if Palkia is affected by a Special Condition.

Its attacks

Hydro Reflect

60

You may move all Energy cards attached to Palkia to your Benched Pokémon in any way you like. (Ignore this effect if you don't have any Benched Pokémon.)

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

    120 HP. Only 4 cards in Great Encounters carry more.

  2. A strength

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

  3. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 3. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  4. 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.

  5. 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.
