Its attacks

Lunge

20

Flip a coin. If tails, this attack does nothing.

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

    60 HP. Only 2 cards in McDonald's Collection 2015 carry more.

  2. 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.

  3. A strength

    Lunge hits for 20 on 1 Energy. Nothing in McDonald's Collection 2015 hits harder for that price.

  4. A strength

    It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

  5. Keep in mind

    None of the 3,810 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.

  6. Keep in mind

    Weakness Grass ×2. Against a Grass Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,810 tournament lists we have read, 2,349 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.

When it came out

McDonald's Collection 2015 landed here on 27 November 2015.
