Attacker

Strategy & play

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

Needs Fighting Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
Fighting type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥60 effectively one-shots it.
A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
A Stage 1 — one step up from Baltoy; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
Seen in 0% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 3 copies.

How to beat Claydol

Exploit its Grass weakness — ≥60 damage one-shots it.
Gust it before the evolution is set up.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Claydol is real?

Claydol 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.

What is Claydol worth?

As of the latest data, there are no active listings on The Game Traders right now. Actual value depends on condition, grading, edition and printing variant — graded high-condition copies (PSA 9–10) trade at a substantial premium over raw copies.

Claydol is from the Pokémon set "Chaos Rising" in the Mega Evolution series, released in 2026.

What rarity is Claydol?
