Strategy & play
How Garchomp & Giratina-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 (Calamitous Slash) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Hits for 160 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
- Needs Psychic / Fighting Energy to attack — note its own type is Dragon, so build for the attack cost, not the type.
- Dragon type, weak to Fairy ×2 — a Fairy attacker doing ≥135 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 Garchomp & Giratina-GX
- Exploit its Fairy weakness — ≥135 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.
