Strategy & play

How Koraidon 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 (Revenge Buster) needs 3 Energy — a turn-3 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Needs Fighting Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Fighting type, weak to Psychic ×2 — a Psychic 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.
  • Seen in 1% of recent tournament decks that can run it, usually 1 copy.

How to beat Koraidon ex

  • Exploit its Psychic weakness — ≥115 damage one-shots it.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Koraidon ex is real?

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.
