Its attacks

DragonbreathDracosouffle

Flip a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing. If heads, the Defending Pokémon is now Paralyzed.Lancez une pièce. Si c'est pile, cette attaque est sans effet. Si c'est face, le Pokémon Défenseur est maintenant Paralysé.

Cotton CloudNuage de coton

During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Altaria by attacks from your opponent's Evolved Pokémon is reduced by 30 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).Lors du prochain tour de votre adversaire, tous dégâts infligés à Altaria par des attaques de Pokémon Évolués de votre adversaire sont réduits de 30 (après application de la Faiblesse et de la Résistance).

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.

A strength
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.
A strength
Dragonbreath hits for 40 on 1 Energy. Nothing in Great Encounters hits harder for that price.
Keep in mind
None of the 5,427 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.
Keep in mind
Weakness Colorless +20. Against a Colorless Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,427 tournament lists we have read, 3,910 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.
