Its Ability

Red Eyes

When you play this Pokémon from your hand to evolve 1 of your Pokémon during your turn, you may put a Basic Pokémon from your opponent’s discard pile onto their Bench.

Its attacks

Enemy Show

For each of your opponent’s Pokémon in play, put 1 damage counter on your opponent’s Pokémon in any way you like.

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

    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.

  2. A strength

    It has an Ability, Red Eyes. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. 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.

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Darkness ×2. Against a Darkness Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,427 tournament lists we have read, 3,370 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.
