Its attacks

WaterfallCascade

100

Tyrannical TailQueue Tyrannique

180+

If your opponent's Active Pokémon already has any damage counters on it, this attack does 180 more damage.Si le Pokémon Actif de votre adversaire a déjà au moins un marqueur de dégâts, cette attaque inflige 180 dégâts supplémentaires.

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.

A strength
300 HP. Only 2 cards in Scarlet & Violet carry more.
A strength
Tyrannical Tail hits for 180 on 5 Energy. Nothing in Scarlet & Violet hits harder for that price.
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.
Keep in mind
None of the 5,392 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.
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.
Keep in mind
Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,392 tournament lists we have read, 439 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
Keep in mind
Mark G. It is not among the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J. A legal reprint may still provide an exception.
