Strategy & play
How Natu 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 (Psywave) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
- Needs Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Psychic type, weak to Psychic ×2 — a Psychic attacker doing ≥20 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 Natu
- Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥20 damage one-shots it.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Natu is real?
Natu is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set.
