- A Basic — hits the board turn 1 with no evolution tax.
- Attacks on any Energy (Colorless cost) — splashable into any deck regardless of type.

- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
How to beat Spearow

How can I tell if my Spearow is real?
Spearow 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.
