Its attacks

Directing Traffic

Look at the top 5 cards of your deck and put them back in any order.

Cross Chop

80+

Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 60 more damage.

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

    160 HP. Only 2 cards in Detective Pikachu carry more.

  2. A strength

    Cross Chop hits for 80 on 2 Energy. Nothing in Detective Pikachu hits harder for that price.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,826 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 a Stage 2. You have to come through Machoke to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Psychic ×2. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,826 tournament lists we have read, 2,208 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

Detective Pikachu landed here on 29 March 2019.
