Strategy & play

How Crobat plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Psychic type, weak to Lightning ×2 — a Lightning attacker doing ≥65 effectively one-shots it.
  • 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 Golbat first).

How to beat Crobat

  • Exploit its Lightning weakness — ≥65 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Crobat is real?

Crobat 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.
