Its Ability

Dragon DNA

Gyarados can use any attack from its Basic Pokémon. (You still have to pay for that attack's Energy cost.) If Gyarados uses any attack from its Basic Pokémon, that attack does 30 more damage to the Active Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance).

Its attacks

Enrage

80

Flip a coin until you get tails. For each heads, choose 1 card from your opponent's hand without looking and discard it. If the first coin is tails, Gyarados is now Confused.

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

    Enrage hits for 80 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Mysterious Treasures hits harder for that price.

  2. A strength

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

  3. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 3. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  4. 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.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Lightning +30. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 tournament lists we have read, 336 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

Mysterious Treasures landed here on 1 August 2007.
