Its Ability

Dark Hide

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may flip a coin. If heads, look at your opponent's hand, choose a Pokémon you find there, and put it on the bottom of his or her deck. This power can't be used if Dusknoir is affected by a Special Condition.

Its attacks

Reaper Pulse

70

Move up to 2 damage counters from Dusknoir to 1 of your opponent's 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 4 cards in DP Black Star Promos carry more.

  2. A strength

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

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,826 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 Dusclops to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Darkness +30. Against a Darkness Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,826 tournament lists we have read, 2,321 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

Two cards of the same Pokémon can be worth wildly different amounts — it depends on the set, the rarity and the artwork. We put all 17 Dusknoir cards on one page, priciest first.
