Its Ability

Skull Stone

During your opponent's turn, if Skull Fossil would be Knocked Out by damage from an opponent's attack, flip a coin until you get tails. For each heads, put 1 damage counter on the Attacking 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

    It retreats for free. You can pull it back to the Bench whenever you like, even with no Energy on it at all.

  2. A strength

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

  3. A strength

    No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.

  4. Keep in mind
