Its attacks

StampPiaffement

50+

Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 50 damage plus 10 more damage and does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon, if any. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)Lancez une pièce. Si c'est face, cette attaque inflige 50 dégâts plus 10 dégâts supplémentaires et inflige 10 dégâts à chaque Pokémon du Banc de votre adversaire, s'il en possède. (N'appliquez ni la Faiblesse ni la Résistance aux Pokémon du Banc.)

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

    120 HP, and nothing in Expedition Base Set goes higher. That is the wall your opponent has to break through before taking a Prize.

  2. A strength

    It has an Ability, Dark Aura. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.

  3. Keep in mind

    Retreat cost 4. Once it is out front, it stays there. Pack something that moves it another way, or you will burn whole turns discarding Energy.

  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.

  5. Keep in mind

    It is a Stage 2. You have to come through Pupitar to get here, or find a Rare Candy to skip the middle step.

  6. Keep in mind

    Weakness Fighting ×2. Against a Fighting Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 3,826 tournament lists we have read, 877 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.
