Attacker

Strategy & play

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

A Basic — hits the board turn 1 with no evolution tax.
Its main attack (Psy Protection) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
Needs Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
Psychic type, weak to Darkness ×2 — a Darkness attacker doing ≥65 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 Deoxys

Exploit its Darkness weakness — ≥65 damage one-shots it.
Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Deoxys is real?

Deoxys 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 Deoxys 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.
