Mega Blaziken EX is clearly a card most suited to Fire-type decks, as it has excellent potential to burn foes to ash. While this pocket monster has a weakness to Water-type moves, the second turn use of Moonsault Blaze applies damage before weakness, and resistance modifiers are calculated, meaning that this move can help to counter the most common threat to Fire-type dec
This beast of a card not only wrecks opposing Pokemon but also bolsters its trainer’s forces. The Team Rocket set has a Dark Dragonite card that has a coin flip chance of doing 70 damage in one swipe of its mighty t
The Hyper Hypnosis ability puts the opponent’s active Pokemon to sleep whenever the user attaches an energy card to Malamar. By exploiting this and bringing along a few double colorless energy cards, players can quickly set up and unleash MAXamar before the opponent’s Pokemon even has a chance to act. At the very least, it should be able to put a serious dent in its opponent’s
Gardevoir is a stage 2 Psychic pokémon with 110 HP and the exciting Poké-Power Telepass. While this power can only be used once per turn, it allows the player to search the discard pile of the opponent and select a Supporter Card and use that Supporter Card’s ability as their own. The card, however, remains in the opponent’s discard pile but allows the player to essentially play two Supporter Cards during a single t
Legendary Pokemon are usually extremely powerful , though this is not always the case. Lugia, Dead space Remake also from the Aquapolis expansion, proves this with its relatively low HP and mediocre attacks. Its Psychic can be useful against foes loaded with energy cards, though its Steam Blast attack can only realistically be used a couple of times before it becomes a burden to the trainer’s energy ne
Thunder Lance, on the other hand, deals a base damage of 50, and, for every electric energy that has been attached to Raikou, it deals a further 20 damage, all for the cost of 3-colorless energy cards. Used in synergy with Max Elixir, Raikou becomes simply unstoppa
As fans of the TCG are likely well aware , there is strong favoritism shown toward Charizard cards in many different expansions. The Skyridge set is no exception, as it was released with another mighty flame Pokemon to add to the ranks of Charizard cards across the franch
It also has the attack Volt Bolt, which, for the cost of 2-electric and 1-colorless, can set up potential one-hit-knock-out scenarios by dealing 150 damage to one pokémon of the opponent while also discarding all electric-energy attached to Lux
Golem from the Skyridge set is a bit more useable, though not by much. Its Rock Throw is as generic as TCG attacks come, though at least its energy cost is not ridiculous. Golem’s Earth Bomb attack, however, is a risky move to use as it is uniquely designed to injure friends as well as f
When Dark Gyarados gets Knocked Out by an opponent’s attack, Final Beam will activate and grant the trainer a special coin flip. If heads, the opposing Pokemon will take 20 damage for each Water-type energy attached to Dark Gyara
Released in the Flashfire expansion, this card harkens back to some non-mega Kangaskhan cards; some of the best Normal-types . There are a few versions of Kangaskhan in the TCG where the damage of their attacks is based on coin flips. This card takes this pattern and super-sizes
Raikou, belonging to the BREAKthrough expansion, is the quintessential snowballer, with its complementary abilities Shining Body and Thunder Lance. With an HP of 120 Raikou is capable of reducing damage from the opponent’s attack by 20 using its ability Shining Body, which can be activated by attaching any number of electric energy cards to
During the 2nd Generation of the Pokemon franchise’s main series games, there were quite a few updates and additions to other forms of media as well. One of those was the Pokemon Trading Card Game , which received new types and card variants, such as Light and Dark Poke
Its other attack, Mind Shock, lets this powerful Psychic-type hit a foe for a guaranteed 40 damage that does not get affected by Weakness and Resistance. This Pokemon is a great addition to any Psychic decks revolving around high field cont
Since the very beginning of the Pokemon TCG ‘s existence, Charizard cards have been some of the most powerful in the series. Many are able to dish out huge damage in a single turn, which can fell many foes even if they are at full hea
The Pokemon Power of this Ghost-type , Deep Sleep, makes it very difficult for the sleeping foe to awaken, requiring them to flip two coins without getting any tails. There is little defense or counter against this strategy, as opponents cannot recall Pokemon that are Asleep unless they use an item or Pokemon Power of their
This flame Pokemon’s Continuous Fireball attack is as destructive as it sounds, able to dish out 50 and 100 damage attacks with ease; however, if loaded with more energies, it can deal even greater damage to scorch nearly any foe to as
