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

    80 HP. Only 1 cards in POP Series 2 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. A strength

    Psychic Shield hits for 30 on 2 Energy. Nothing in POP Series 2 hits harder for that price.

  4. A strength

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

  5. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  6. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,461 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.

  7. Keep in mind

    It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  8. Keep in mind

    Weakness Psychic ×2. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,461 tournament lists we have read, 3,253 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.
