Its Ability

Psychic Shift

Once during your turn, if Xatu is on your Bench, you may choose 1 Special Condition from 1 of your Active Pokémon and remove that Special Condition. Then, 1 of the Defending Pokémon is now affected by that Special Condition.

Its attacks

Energy Singe

Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 20 damage to that Pokémon plus 10 more damage for each Energy attached to it. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched 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

    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. A strength

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

  3. Keep in mind

    None of the 5,466 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.

  4. Keep in mind

    Weakness Psychic +10. Against a Psychic Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 5,466 tournament lists we have read, 3,255 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.
