Its Ability

Hard Rock

As long as Groudon ex has 1 Energy or less attached to it, damage done to any of your Groudon ex in play by attacks is reduced by 20 (after applying Weakness and Resistance). You can't use more than 1 Hard Rock Poké-Body each turn.

Its attacks

Power Blast

100

Discard 2 Energy attached to Groudon ex.

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

    Power Blast hits for 100 on 3 Energy. Nothing in Crystal Guardians hits harder for that price.

  2. A strength

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

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,810 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.

  4. Keep in mind

    It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Grass ×2. Against a Grass Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 tournament lists we have read, 2,349 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

Crystal Guardians landed here on 30 August 2006.
