Strategy & play
How Blastoise 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 Water Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Water type, weak to Lightning ×2 — a Lightning attacker doing ≥60 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
- 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 Wartortle first).
How to beat Blastoise
- Exploit its Lightning weakness — ≥60 damage one-shots it.
- KO it to choke their draw / search engine.
- Gust it before the evolution is set up.

About this card
"The jets of water it spouts from the rocket cannons on its shell can punch through thick steel."
Poké-Power: Waterlog
Once during your turn (before your attack), you may attach as many basic Water Energy cards from your hand to any of your Pokémon in any way you like. If you do, your turn ends. This power can't be used if Blastoise is affected by a Special Condition.
WWCHydro Pump — 50+
Does 50 damage plus 20 more damage for each Water Energy attached to Blastoise but not used to pay for this attack's Energy cost. You can't add more than 40 damage in this way.
Weakness:L+30
Retreat cost:CC

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