Its attacks

Fire Dance

30

Search your discard pile for a Fire Energy card and attach it to 1 of your Pokémon.

Flame Kick

Discard 2 Fire Energy attached to Blaziken. This attack does 80 damage to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

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

    130 HP. Only 1 cards in Great Encounters carry more.

  2. 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.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,519 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

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Combusken to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Water +30. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,519 tournament lists we have read, 2,223 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.

The other cards of this Pokémon
