Strategy & play
How Beldum plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Not a main attacker — its job is Ability-based draw/search. Run it as a consistency hub and protect it, because opponents will target the engine.
- Needs Metal Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Metal type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥25 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
- Seen in 3% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 4 copies.
How to beat Beldum
- Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥25 damage one-shots it.
- KO it to choke their draw / search engine.

About this card
"It converses with others by using magnetic pulses. In a swarm, they move in perfect unison."
Poké-Power: Metal Chain
Once during your turn (before your attack), when you attach a Metal Energy card from your hand to Beldum (excluding effects of attacks or Poké-Powers), you may search your deck for Beldum and put it onto your Bench. Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Beldum is affected by a Special Condition.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Beldum is real?
Beldum 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.
