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

  2. A strength

    Mark I. It is one of the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J.

  3. 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.

  4. Keep in mind

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Dewott to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  5. 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.
