Strategy & play

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

  • Its main attack (Dragon Pulse) 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 Water / Psychic Energy to attack — note its own type is Dragon, so build for the attack cost, not the type.
  • 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.
  • 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 Sliggoo first).

How to beat Goodra

  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.

Ability: Slimy Sliding

When your opponent's Active Pokémon retreats, your opponent flips a coin. If tails, Energy for its Retreat Cost is not discarded, and they don't switch Pokémon. The effect of Slimy Sliding doesn't stack.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Goodra is real?

Goodra 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.
