This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness, Resistance, Poké-Powers, Poké-Bodies, or any other effects on the Defending Pokémon.Les dégâts de cette attaque ne sont pas affectés par la Faiblesse, la Résistance, les Poké-Powers, les Poké-Bodies ou tout autre effet sur le Pokémon Défenseur.

Mass DestructionGrosse destruction

Both Electrode and the Defending Pokémon are now Knocked Out. If Electrode has any Special Energy cards attached to it, this attack does nothing.Electrode et le Pokémon Défenseur sont maintenant K.O. Si Electrode possède des cartes Énergie Spéciales, cette attaque est sans effet.

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

    Swift hits for 30 on 1 Energy. Nothing in Hidden Legends hits harder for that price.

  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.
