WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT
- It has an Ability, Trump Card. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- None of the 3,240 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.
- Weakness Psychic +20. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,240 tournament lists we have read, 1,883 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.
