Its Ability

Diamond CoatRevêtement Diamant

This Pokémon takes 30 less damage from attacks (after applying Weakness and Resistance).Ce Pokémon subit 30 dégâts de moins provenant des attaques (après application de la Faiblesse et de la Résistance).

Its attacks

Garland RayRayon Guirlande

120×

Discard up to 2 Energy cards from this Pokémon, and this attack does 120 damage for each card you discarded in this way.Défaussez jusqu'à 2 cartes Énergie de ce Pokémon. Cette attaque inflige 120 dégâts pour chaque carte défaussée de cette façon.

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

    Retreat cost 1. One Energy to discard and it is back on the Bench, which matters a lot on the turn you need to swap attackers.

  2. A strength

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

  3. A strength

    Mega Diancie ex / Dusknoir runs it in 47 of the 47 lists we have read, seen across 43 different tournaments.

  4. A strength

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

  5. A strength

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

  6. Keep in mind

    It is a Mega Evolution ex, and that is the most expensive rule in the game. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 3 Prizes instead of one. They need six to win, so 2 knockouts on this card are enough. Send it out knowing that.

  7. Keep in mind

    Weakness Metal ×2. Against a Metal Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,818 tournament lists we have read, 778 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
