Strategy & play

How Magnezone-EX 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 (Electro Ball) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
  • Needs Lightning Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Lightning type, weak to Fighting ×2 — a Fighting attacker doing ≥90 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.
  • Retreat cost 3 — gets stranded Active if gusted; run Switch / Escape Rope or a Float Stone-style Tool.

How to beat Magnezone-EX

  • Exploit its Fighting weakness — ≥90 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.
