Strategy & play
How Salamence ex plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.
- Its main attack (Dragon Impact) needs 4 Energy — a turn-4 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Hits for 300 — one-shots most ex and many high-HP VMAX/Tera Pokémon.
- Needs Fire / Water Energy to attack — note its own type is Dragon, so build for the attack cost, not the type.
- 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.
- A Stage 2 — without Rare Candy you lose ~2 turns setting it up, and it’s gust-bait before it’s online (you must draw Shelgon first).
- Currently Standard-legal — usable in the main rotating format.
How to beat Salamence ex
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.
- It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.

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