Its attacks

Leaf Guard

30

During your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Tangrowth by attacks is reduced by 20 (after applying Weakness and Resistance).

Swallow Up

50

Before doing damage, count the remaining HP of the Defending Pokémon and Tangrowth. If the Defending Pokémon has fewer remaining HP than Tangrowth's, this attack does 120 damage instead.

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. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 3. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  2. Keep in mind

    None of the 4,726 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 Fire +30. Against a Fire Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 4,726 tournament lists we have read, 1,074 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.
