Its Ability

Magnetic Absorptionじりょくきゅうしゅう

Once during your turn, if your opponent has 4 or fewer Prize cards remaining, you may attach a Basic Energy card from your discard pile to this Pokémon.相手のサイドの残り枚数が4枚以下なら、自分の番に1回使える。自分のトラッシュから「基本エネルギー」を1枚選び、このポケモンにつける。

During your next turn, this Pokémon can't attack.次の自分の番、このポケモンはワザが使えない。

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, Magnetic Absorption. 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. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,384 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 an ex card. The turn it goes down your opponent takes 2 Prizes instead of one, and games do turn on exactly that.

  5. Keep in mind

    Weakness Grass ×2. Against a Grass Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,384 tournament lists we have read, 3,405 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

  6. Keep in mind

    Mark G. It is not among the marks currently accepted in Standard: H, I, and J. A legal reprint may still provide an exception.
