Its Ability

Dragon Lift

Your Pokémon in play have no Retreat Cost, except Pokémon-GX and Pokémon-EX.

Its attacks

Bright Flame

200

Discard 2 Energy from this Pokémon.

Flame Jet GX

This attack does 120 damage to 1 of your opponent’s Pokémon. (Don’t apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) (You can’t use more than 1 GX attack in a game.)

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

    250 HP, and nothing in Dragon Majesty goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.

  2. A strength

    Bright Flame hits for 200 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Dragon Majesty hits harder for that price.

  3. A strength

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

  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

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Shelgon to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  6. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fairy ×2. Against a Fairy Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,299 tournament lists we have read, 0 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.

The other cards of this Pokémon
