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.

    Raging Bolt ex runs it in 38 of the 38 lists we have read, seen across 36 different tournaments.

  3. A strength

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

  4. A strength

    No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.
