Strategy & play
How Infernape plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Burning Kick) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
- Hits for 160 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
- Needs Fire Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Fire type, weak to Water ×2 — a Water 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.
- A Stage 2 — without Rare Candy you lose ~2 turns setting it up, and it’s gust-bait before it’s online (you must draw Monferno first).
How to beat Infernape
- Exploit its Water weakness — ≥75 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Infernape is real?
Infernape 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.
