Strategy & play
How Brute Bonnet 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 (Rampaging Hammer) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 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.
- Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Darkness type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥60 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 Brute Bonnet
- Exploit its Grass weakness — ≥60 damage one-shots it.
- Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
