This card can only be attached to a Single Strike Pokémon. If this card is attached to anything other than a Single Strike Pokémon, discard this card. As long as this card is attached to a Pokémon, it provides Fighting and Darkness Energy but provides only 1 Energy at a time, and the attacks of the Pokémon this card is attached to do 20 more damage to your opponent's Active Pokémon (before applying 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

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

  2. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,811 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.

  3. Keep in mind

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

Standard format: source checked on September 22, 2026. TCGdex
