Strategy & play
How Beldum plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Not a main attacker — its job is search / tutoring. Run it as a consistency hub and protect it, because opponents will target the engine.
- Needs Psychic Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Psychic type, weak to Psychic ×2 — a Psychic attacker doing ≥25 effectively one-shots it.
- Seen in 3% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 4 copies.
How to beat Beldum
- Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥25 damage one-shots it.

Frequently asked
How can I tell if my Beldum is real?
Beldum 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.
What is Beldum worth?
As of the latest data, there are no active listings on The Game Traders right now. Actual value depends on condition, grading, edition and printing variant — graded high-condition copies (PSA 9–10) trade at a substantial premium over raw copies.
What set is Beldum from?
Beldum is from the Pokémon set "EX Trainer Kit 2 Plusle" in the EX series, released in 2006.
