Strategy & play
How Lampent plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Needs Fire Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Fire type, weak to Water ×2 — a Water 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 Litwick; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
- Seen in 0% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 4 copies.
- Currently Standard-legal — usable in the main rotating format.
How to beat Lampent
- Exploit its Water weakness — ≥40 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.

How can I tell if my Lampent is real?

For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
