ITS ATTACKS

DeceitColorlessSearch your deck for a Supporter card, reveal it, and put it into your hand. Then, shuffle your deck.
Torment30Darkness + ColorlessChoose 1 of your opponent's Active Pokémon's attacks. During your opponent's next turn, that Pokémon can't use that attack.

What to make of it

Every line below comes from a number. Either it is printed on the card, or we counted it on tournament lists. You will not find a score here — you will find what matters when you decide whether to run it.

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.
  • Team Rocket's Honchkrow runs it in 21 of the 21 lists we have read, seen across 20 different tournaments.
  • It is a Basic Pokémon. You can put it down on your very first turn, with nothing to evolve through.
  • Mark I. The next rotation takes mark H away, so this one stays tournament legal.

WHAT TO WATCH OUT FOR

  • Weakness Lightning ×2. Against a Lightning Pokémon, apply that to the damage it takes — it climbs fast. Of the 1,351 tournament lists we have read, 110 run at least one Pokémon of that type.

What it costs

We have no price to show you for this card today. The link below takes you where it sells, and you will see the day's numbers there.

Who plays it

We read tournament decklists one by one. The match is made on the set code printed at the bottom of the card, the one the player copied onto the list — never on the name, because two cards sometimes share one.

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

It's free and there's no account to make. Your log stays in your browser: your browser is what replays the game.
