Its Ability
Lost Out
If your opponent’s Pokémon is Knocked Out by damage from this Pokémon’s attacks, put that Pokémon and all cards attached to it in the Lost Zone instead of the discard pile.
Its attacks
Dusty Ruckus
130This attack does 30 damage to each of your opponent’s Benched Basic Pokémon. (Don’t apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)
Lay the Smackdown GX
220This attack’s damage isn’t affected by any effects on your opponent’s Active 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.
WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT
- 250 HP, and nothing in Lost Thunder goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.
- Lay the Smackdown GX hits for 220 on 3 Energy. Nothing in Lost Thunder hits harder for that price.
- It has an Ability, Lost Out. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- 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.
- None of the 3,271 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 Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,271 tournament lists we have read, 757 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.
