Its Ability

Primal Light

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for a basic Energy card, show it to your opponent, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Aerodactyl is affected by a Special Condition.

Its attacks

Granite Head

30

During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Aerodactyl by attacks is reduced by 10 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

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, Primal Light. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,811 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.

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read, 336 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.

When it came out
