Strategy & play

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

Its main attack (Full Metal Blade) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
Hits for 210 — one-shots most single-prize attackers and many ex, but not 300+ HP walls.
Needs Metal Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
Metal type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥75 effectively one-shots it.
A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.

How to beat Aegislash

Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥75 damage one-shots it.
Gust it before the evolution is set up.
Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Aegislash is real?

Aegislash is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
