Strategy & play
How Iron Valiant ex 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 (Laser Blade) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Hits for 200 — one-shots most single-prize attackers and many ex, but not 300+ HP walls.
- Needs Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Psychic type, weak to Metal ×2 — a Metal attacker doing ≥110 effectively one-shots it.
- A two-prize Pokémon — each KO gives the opponent 2 Prizes, so a single bad trade can lose the race. Back it with single-prize attackers.
How to beat Iron Valiant ex
- Exploit its Metal weakness — ≥110 damage one-shots it.
- It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.

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