Its Ability

Once during your opponent's turn, if Qwilfish is your Active Pokémon and is damaged by an attack (even if Qwilfish is Knocked Out), you may flip a coin. If heads, the Attacking Pokémon is now Poisoned. Put 2 damage counters instead of 1 on that Pokémon between turns.Une seule fois lors du tour de votre adversaire, si Qwilfish est votre Pokémon Actif et qu'une attaque lui inflige des dégâts (même si Qwilfish est mis K.O), vous pouvez lancer une pièce. Si c'est face, le Pokémon Attaquant est maintenant Empoisonné. Placez 2 marqueurs de dégât au lieu d'1 sur ce Pokémon entre deux tours.

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

  3. A strength

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

  4. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,461 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.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Lightning +20. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,461 tournament lists we have read, 444 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.
