Its Ability

Flame Dash

Once during your turn, when you play Arcanine from your hand to evolve 1 of your Benched Pokémon, you may switch Arcanine with 1 of your Active Pokémon. If you do, you may move any number of Energy cards attached to that Pokémon to Arcanine.

Its attacks

Inferno Onrush

120

Arcanine does 40 damage to itself.

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

    Inferno Onrush hits for 120 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Secret Wonders hits harder for that price.

  2. A strength

    It has an Ability, Flame Dash. 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 Water +30. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read, 1,533 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
