Break GroundDestructerre

250

This attack also does 20 damage to each of your Benched Pokémon. <em>(Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)</em>Cette attaque inflige aussi 20 dégâts à chacun de vos Pokémon de Banc. <em>(N'appliquez ni la Faiblesse ni la Résistance aux Pokémon de Banc.)</em>

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

    Break Ground hits for 250 on 5 Energy. Nothing in 30th Celebration hits harder for that price.

  2. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  3. A strength

    Mark J. It is one of the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J.

  4. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 4. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  5. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,417 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.

  6. Keep in mind

    Weakness Grass ×2. Against a Grass Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,417 tournament lists we have read, 3,426 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
