Its Ability

Conductivity

Whenever your opponent attaches an Energy card to a Pokémon from his or her hand, this Power does 10 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance) This power stops working if you have more than 1 Dark Ampharos in play or while Dark Ampharos is Asleep, Confused or Paralysed.

Its attacks

Shock Bolt

50

Discard all Energy cards attached to this Pokémon in order to use this attack.

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

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

  2. 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.

  3. Keep in mind

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

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read, 875 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

Neo Destiny landed here on 28 February 2002.
