Strategy & play
How Moltres & Zapdos & Articuno-GX 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 (Trinity Burn) needs 4 Energy — a turn-4 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Hits for 210 — one-shots most single-prize attackers and many ex, but not 300+ HP walls.
- Needs Fire / Water / Lightning Energy to attack — note its own type is Colorless, so build for the attack cost, not the type.
- Colorless type, weak to Lightning ×2 — a Lightning attacker doing ≥150 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.
How to beat Moltres & Zapdos & Articuno-GX
- Exploit its Lightning weakness — ≥150 damage one-shots it.
- Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
- It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.
