Fan Rotom

Fan Rotom has appeared in several sets: Stellar Crown (SCR 118), Prismatic Evolutions (PRE 85) and Ascended Heroes (ASC 171). It is the same card every time — it plays the same, only the artwork and the price change. Here is what it does once it is on the table.

ITS ABILITY

Fan CallOnce during your first turn, you may search your deck for up to 3 {C} Pokémon with 100 HP or less, reveal them, and put them into your hand. Then, shuffle your deck. You can't use more than 1 Fan Call Ability during your turn.

ITS ATTACKS

Assault Landing70ColorlessIf there is no Stadium in play, 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.

WHAT IT HAS GOING FOR IT

  • 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.
  • It has an Ability, Fan Call. An Ability costs you no attack, so you can use it and still swing the same turn.
  • Mega Lopunny ex / Dudunsparce runs it in 24 of the 24 lists we have read, seen across 22 different tournaments.
  • It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.

WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR

  • Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 1,386 tournament lists we have read, 111 run at least one Pokémon of that type.
  • Mark H, and that is the letter the next rotation takes away. After that you will not be able to play it in Standard.

Paste it here and we'll replay each of your decisions hundreds of times, then tell you which one actually cost you the game.
