Strategy & play
How Garchomp plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Dragon Fang) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Attacks on any Energy (Colorless cost) — splashable into any deck regardless of type.
- Colorless type, weak to Colorless ×2 — a Colorless 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 2 — without Rare Candy you lose ~2 turns setting it up, and it’s gust-bait before it’s online (you must draw Gabite first).
How to beat Garchomp
- Exploit its Colorless weakness — ≥65 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.

About this card
"When it folds up its body and extends its wings, it looks like a jet plane. It flies at sonic speed."
Poké-Body: Rainbow Scale
If an Active Pokémon has Weakness to any of the types of Energy attached to Garchomp, Garchomp's attacks do 40 more damage to that Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance). Rainbow Scale Poké-Body can't be used if Garchomp has any Special Energy cards attached to it.

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