Strategy & play

How Hisuian Growlithe 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 (Take Down) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
  • Needs Free / Fighting Energy to attack — note its own type is Fighting, so build for the attack cost, not the type.
  • Fighting type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥40 effectively one-shots it.
  • A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
  • Currently Standard-legal — usable in the main rotating format.

How to beat Hisuian Growlithe
