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

  3. A strength

    Dudunsparce runs it in 26 of the 29 lists we have read, seen across 24 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

    Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 tournament lists we have read, 336 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
