Its Ability

Zero to Heroマイティチェンジ

Once during your turn, when this Pokémon moves from the Active Spot to the Bench, you may search your deck for a Palafin ex and switch it with this Pokémon. Any attached cards, damage counters, Special Conditions, turns in play, and any other effects remain on the new Pokémon. If you switched a Pokémon in this way, put this card into your deck. Then, shuffle your deck.自分の番に、このポケモンがバトル場からベンチにもどったとき、1回使える。自分の山札から「イルカマンex」を1枚選び、このカードと入れ替える（ついているカード・ダメカン・特殊状態・効果などは、すべて引きつぐ）。入れ替えたなら、このカードは山札にもどす。そして山札を切る。

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, Zero to Hero. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. A strength

    Palafin ex runs it in 42 of the 42 lists we have read, seen across 38 different tournaments.

  4. A strength

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

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,392 tournament lists we have read, 439 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
