Strategy & play

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

  • Inflicts Poison — guaranteed chip damage every turn between turns (no coin flip). It stacks with your attack math to cross KO thresholds the attack alone misses.
  • Its main attack (Poison Spray) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Darkness type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥60 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 Garbodor

  • Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥60 damage one-shots it.
  • Gust it before the evolution is set up.
  • Trap it Active — 3 retreat means it can’t escape without help.
  • On the receiving end of a condition? Retreat, switch, or evolve to wipe it — conditions only stick to the Active.
