Strategy & play

How Dunsparce plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

  • Its main attack (Dig) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
  • Attacks on any Energy (Colorless cost) — splashable into any deck regardless of type.
  • Colorless type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥30 effectively one-shots it.

  • Seen in 17% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 2 copies.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Dunsparce is real?

Dunsparce is not on our list of commonly-counterfeited cards, but counterfeits exist across every set. Check the back-light test (real cards have a black inner layer that blocks light; counterfeits glow through), the rosette dot pattern on the back under magnification, font weight and kerning on the card name, and the holofoil pattern if applicable. For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
