Strategy & play
How Gloom plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Needs Grass Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Grass type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥40 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 Oddish; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
- Currently Standard-legal — usable in the main rotating format.
How to beat Gloom
- Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥40 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.

About this card
"What appears to be drool is actually sweet honey. It is very sticky and clings stubbornly if touched."

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