Its Ability

Curse Breath

Once during your turn, when you put Spiritomb from your hand onto your Bench, you may put 1 damage counter on all Pokémon that already have any damage counters on them (both yours and your opponent's). You can't use more than 1 Curse Breath Poké-Power each turn.

Its attacks

Transfer Pain

Move 1 damage counter from 1 of your Pokémon to 1 of your opponent's Pokémon.

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, Curse Breath. 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. A strength

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

  4. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,826 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.
