Its Ability

Rebirth

When Rocket's Moltres is Knocked Out, you may return it to your hand after discarding it. This power can't be used if Rocket's Moltres is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed when it is Knocked Out.

Its attacks

Fire Wall

40

If an attack does damage to Rocket's Moltres during your opponent's next turn (even if Rocket's Moltres is Knocked Out), Rocket's Moltres attacks your opponent's Active Pokémon for 10 damage. (Apply Weakness and Resistance.)

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

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

  2. A strength

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

  3. A strength

    No Weakness printed on the card. Nothing doubles up the damage it takes.

  4. Keep in mind

    None of the 4,126 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.

Who plays it
