Strategy & play
How Magnezone ex plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Pulse Launcher) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
- Hits for 220 — one-shots most single-prize attackers and many ex, but not 300+ HP walls.
- Needs Lightning Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Lightning type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥165 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.
- Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.
How to beat Magnezone ex
- Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥165 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
- Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
- It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.

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

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