Its Ability

Poison StructureStructure poison

Once during your turn (before your attack), if you have a Stadium card in play, you may use this power. Each Active Pokémon (both yours and your opponent's) (excluding Pokémon SP) is now Poisoned. This power can't be used if Skuntank is affected by a Special Condition.Une seule fois lors de votre tour (avant votre attaque), si vous avez une carte Stade en jeu, vous pouvez utiliser ce pouvoir. Chaque Pokémon Actif (les vôtres et ceux de votre adversaire) (Pokémon SP exclus) est maintenant Empoisonné. Ce pouvoir ne peut pas être utilisé si Moufflair est affecté par un État Spécial.

If the Defending Pokémon tries to attack during your opponent's next turn, your opponent flips a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing.Si le Pokémon Défenseur essaye d'attaquer lors du prochain tour de votre adversaire, celui-ci lance une pièce. Si c'est pile, cette attaque est sans effet.

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, Poison Structure. 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 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.

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 4,126 tournament lists we have read, 935 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.
