Its attacks

Tail Slap

20

Fireball

70

Use this attack only if there are any Energy cards attached to Dark Charmeleon. Flip a coin. If heads, discard 1 of those Energy cards. If tails, this attack does nothing (not even damage).

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

    Fireball hits for 70 on 3 Energy. Nothing in Team Rocket hits harder for that price.

  2. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,810 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

    Weakness Water ×2. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 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

Team Rocket landed here on 24 April 2000.
