Strategy & play
How Dusknoir plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Shadow Bind) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Hits for 150 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
- Needs Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Psychic type, weak to Darkness ×2 — a Darkness attacker doing ≥80 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
- Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.
How to beat Dusknoir
- Exploit its Darkness weakness — ≥80 damage one-shots it.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
- Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
