Its attacks
Tri Power
70×Flip 3 coins. This attack does 70 damage for each heads.
Star Cipher
Until this Pokémon leaves play, it gains an Ability that has the effect "The Weakness of each of your opponent's Pokémon in play is now Psychic. (The amount of Weakness doesn't change.)" (You can't use more than 1 VSTAR Power 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. Only 5 cards in Silver Tempest carry more.
- Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.
WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR
- 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 Darkness ×2. Against a Darkness Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,271 tournament lists we have read, 1,972 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
- Mark F, and that letter has already left the format. You can still play it at home, or keep it in your binder. In a Standard tournament, no: the letters allowed today are H, I, and J.
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.
