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

    Mega Diancie ex runs it in 1 of the 9 lists we have read, seen across 1 different tournaments.

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

  4. 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.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Darkness ×2. Against a Darkness Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read, 2,313 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
