Strategy & play
How Jirachi plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Not a main attacker — its job is card selection. Run it as a consistency hub and protect it, because opponents will target the engine.
- Needs Metal Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Metal type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥30 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
How to beat Jirachi
- Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥30 damage one-shots it.
- KO it to choke their draw / search engine.

Once during your turn (before your attack), if Jirachi is your Active Pokémon, you may look at the top 5 cards of your deck, choose 1 of them, and put it into your hand. Shuffle your deck afterward. Jirachi and your other Active Pokémon, if any, are now Asleep. This power can't be used if Jirachi is affected by a Special Condition.
MCMetallic Blow — 20+
If the Defending Pokémon has any Poké-Bodies, this attack does 20 damage plus 30 more damage.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Jirachi is real?
Jirachi 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.
