Its attacks

Cross-CutCoupe transversale

30+

If the Defending Pokémon is an Evolved Pokémon, this attack does 30 damage plus 20 more damage.Si le Pokémon Défenseur est un Pokémon Évolué, cette attaque inflige 30 dégâts plus 20 dégâts supplémentaires.

Brush OffLancer

Put the Defending Pokémon and all cards attached to it on top of your opponent's deck. Your opponent shuffles his or her deck afterward. (If your opponent doesn't have any Benched Pokémon, this attack does nothing.)Placez le Pokémon Défenseur ainsi que toutes les cartes qui lui sont attachées au dessus du deck de votre adversaire. Celui-ci mélange ensuite son deck. (Si votre adversaire ne possède pas de Pokémon de Banc, cette attaque est sans effet).

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

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

  2. 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.

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,811 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

    Weakness Psychic ×2. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,811 tournament lists we have read, 2,201 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.
