Strategy & play
How Cynthia's Roserade plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Leaf Step) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Needs Grass Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Grass type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire 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.
- A Stage 1 — one step up from Cynthia's Roselia; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
- Seen in 2% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 3 copies.
How to beat Cynthia's Roserade
- Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥65 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.

How can I tell if my Cynthia's Roserade is real?

For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
