Its attacks

Multishot StarRafale Stellaire

Discard any amount of Energy from this Pokémon. Then, for each Energy card you discarded in this way, choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon and do 30 damage to it. (You can choose the same Pokémon more than once.) This damage isn't affected by Weakness or Resistance.Défaussez autant d'Énergies que vous le voulez de ce Pokémon. Ensuite, pour chaque carte Énergie défaussée de cette façon, choisissez l'un des Pokémon de votre adversaire et infligez-lui 30 dégâts. (Vous pouvez choisir le même Pokémon plusieurs fois.) Ces dégâts ne sont pas affectés par la Faiblesse ou la Résistance.

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. Keep in mind

    None of the 4,426 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

    Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 4,426 tournament lists we have read, 362 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

  4. 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.
