Strategy & play

How Unown [I] plays — derived from its stats and the rules of the game, not an opinion.

Not a main attacker — its job is Ability-based draw/search. 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 ≥20 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 Unown [I]

Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥20 damage one-shots it.
KO it to choke their draw / search engine.
