Strategy & play
How Garbodor plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Sludge Bomb) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Darkness type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting 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.
- A Stage 1 — one step up from Trubbish; doesn’t help your opening hand, but quick to set up.
How to beat Garbodor
- Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥60 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
