Its Ability

Honeycomb Defender

If Scizor has 6 or more damage counters on it, any damage done to Scizor by attacks is reduced by 40 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

Its attacks

Accelerate

30

If the Defending Pokémon is Knocked Out by this attack, prevent all effects of an attack, including damage, done to Scizor during your opponent's next turn.

Pound Down

40+

If you don't have any Pokémon with any Poké-Powers in play, this attack does 40 damage plus 30 more damage.

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

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,728 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

    Weakness Fire +20. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,728 tournament lists we have read, 1,334 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.
