Dark Omastar's other attack, Dark Tentacle, can prevent the foe from evolving while it is the Active Pokemon while also doing some damage. A strange strategy, but one that can lock a foe into only using Baby or Basic Poke

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

Fire-type Pokemon hit hard, though they don't usually have high HP. This makes them the glass cannons of the Pokemon TCG world . If one does not set up their offense in time, they may lose Pokemon needlessly to opponents with faster decks. A way to avoid this is to start off playing weaker and quicker Pokemon fi

Furthermore, it has other useful abilities like Strafe, allowing it to change places with a benched pokémon that has been perfectly setup, as well as a GX attack known as Dark Call, which allows the player to remove two energy cards from the opponent’s pokemon. However, this attack can only be used once in a game and also should be used cautiously as it may backf

Reshiram & Zekrom from the Cosmic Eclipse expansion can ravage an opposing team and even has some compatibility with a certain Supporter card. Their normal attack, Fabled Flarebolts, require them to discard a fair number of Energies, though at the maximum potential can unleash 270 damage on the Active

Strategy and victory are important factors to be sure but don't forget to enjoy the battle. Use Pokemon that are interesting and fun to build a strategy that feels right. There are no wrong ways to enjoy the Pokemon digital TCG Meta and innovation by utilizing new strategies can be satisfying. This can even give a trainer a leg up on the competition by unleashing unexpected battling techniq

Versatile is its most powerful attack, which allows the player to use any pokémon attacks from another pokémon in play either belonging to the player or the opponent. Each attack would, however, require their necessary energy cost. Replace, on the other hand, allows the player to detach as many energy cards as he/she wishes to his/her other pokémon in any manner he/she desi

Cards with low-energy cost attacks can hinder the adversary while they are trying to set up strategies. Larvesta from the Darkness Ablaze expansion is a decent representation of this, as its Singe attack guarantees a Burn on the foe and only requires one Fire-type energy to play, making it an optimal card to use at the beginning of a bat

This is another card well suited to a Dragon-type deck, though one that possesses both Water and Psychic energy cards. As Dragon-type cards often require multiple types of energies, they can be time-consuming to set up, though are usually worth the effort. Be sure to pack energy search cards to alleviate some of the delays while powering up one's drag

It featured prominently in the devastating Night March deck and rendered decks prioritizing cards like Yveltal/Darkrai and Mega Rayquaza completely defenseless. However, it does have a weakness in its low HP of 30, but its ability to deal exponential damage overpowers that limitation. Sadly, owing to its OP abilities, it has been banned from the standard formats of the game, but it is very much relevant in the expanded form

Although the damage counter dealt by this attack is little, landing only 30 damage to the opponent, it allows the player to attach one dark energy to any of his/her benched pokemon from the discard pile. The cost is also minimal at just one dark energy. It also has a secondary attack known as Darkness Blade, but it restricts Yveltal from attacking in the following turn and therefore should be avoided as it ruins the setup the player had made in the previous t

The trading card game has a number of different archetypes associated with it, one amongst which is the powerful Dark-type Pokemon Cards. The dark type represents a group of pocket monsters who are not just powerful, but quite menacing and scary, as well . The highlights of this type of card includes quick setup, the flexibility to adapt, high potentials for damage, powerful attack effects, and abilities. While there are many pokemon that belong to this type, some can easily be regarded as the strong

Hailing from the XY expansion, Electrode is meant to be used as a super battery for powerful Electric-type pokémon—albeit at the cost of one Prize Card—since this ability knocks Electrode out and transforms it into a Special-Energy Card, providing two electric energy to whichever Electric-type Pokémon it has been attached

Dark Pokemon, which should not be confused with Dark-type Pokemon , are pocket monsters who have turned to the shadier side of things, almost always due to their trainer being such a character themselves. Their moves and card art reflect their more sinister nature, although some are merely all bark and no bite. However, a few live up to their ominous reputation for being foes that players wish to av
