Strategy & play

How Venusaur ex plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Inflicts Poison — guaranteed chip damage every turn between turns (no coin flip). It stacks with your attack math to cross KO thresholds the attack alone misses.
  • Inflicts Confusion — they must flip to attack (tails fails and deals 30 to themselves). Soft, coin-flip disruption.
  • Its main attack (Dangerous Toxwhip) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Hits for 150 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
  • Needs Grass Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Grass type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥170 effectively one-shots it.

How to beat Venusaur ex

  • Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥170 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 4 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
  • On the receiving end of a condition? Retreat, switch, or evolve to wipe it — conditions only stick to the Active.

How can I tell if my Venusaur ex is real?
