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

    240 HP, and nothing in Ancient Origins goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.

  2. A strength

    Tidal Storm hits for 150 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Ancient Origins hits harder for that price.

  3. A strength

    It has an Ability, {title}:. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  4. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 4. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  5. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,810 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.

  6. Keep in mind

    It is an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  7. Keep in mind

    Weakness Grass ×2. Against a Grass Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 tournament lists we have read, 2,349 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.
