Its Ability

Super DynamoSuper dynamo

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Electrode is your Active Pokémon, you may flip a coin. If heads, choose a Lightning Energy card from your discard pile and attach it to 1 of your Pokémon. This power can't be used if Electrode is affected by a Special Condition.Une seule fois pendant votre tour (avant votre attaque), si Électrode est votre Pokémon Actif, vous pouvez lancer une pièce. Si c'est face, attachez une carte Énergie de votre pile de défausse sur un de vos Pokémon. Ce pouvoir ne peut pas être utilisé si Électrode est affecté par un État spécial.

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

    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.

  2. A strength

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

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,811 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.

  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.
