Strategy & play
How Bouffalant 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 (Superpowered Horns) needs 4 Energy — a turn-4 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Hits for 120 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
- Attacks on any Energy (Colorless cost) — splashable into any deck regardless of type.
- Colorless type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting 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.
How to beat Bouffalant
- Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥65 damage one-shots it.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Bouffalant is real?
