Strategy & play
How Roaring Moon 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 (Calamity Storm) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
- Needs Darkness Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Darkness type, weak to Grass ×2 — a Grass attacker doing ≥115 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.
- Currently Standard-legal — usable in the main rotating format.
How to beat Roaring Moon ex
- Exploit its Grass weakness — ≥115 damage one-shots it.
- It gives up 2 Prizes — out-trade it with single-prize attackers.

Frequently asked

For high-value copies we recommend submitting to a professional grader (PSA, BGS, CGC) for tamper-evident authentication.
