Its attacks

Outrage

30+

This attack does 10 more damage for each damage counter on this Pokémon.

Flare Strike

230

This Pokémon can’t use Flare Strike during your next turn.

Double Blaze GX

200+

If this Pokémon has at least 3 extra Fire Energy attached to it (in addition to this attack’s cost), this attack does 100 more damage, and this attack’s damage isn’t affected by any effects on your opponent’s Active Pokémon. (You can’t use more than 1 GX attack in a game.)

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

    270 HP, and nothing in Unbroken Bonds goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.

  2. A strength

    Flare Strike hits for 230 on 4 Energy. Nothing in Unbroken Bonds hits harder for that price.

  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

    Retreat cost 3. 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

    Weakness Water ×2. Against a Water Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 tournament lists we have read, 1,533 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.

When it came out
