Strategy & play

How Duraludon 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 (Steel Beam) needs 4 Energy — a turn-4 swing on manual attachment — you’ll want Energy acceleration to power it up on time.
  • Hits for 150 — one-shots small Basics and support Pokémon, but trades down into the format’s big attackers.
  • Needs Metal Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
  • Metal type, weak to Fire ×2 — a Fire attacker doing ≥65 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 Duraludon

  • Exploit its Fire weakness — ≥65 damage one-shots it.

Frequently asked

How can I tell if my Duraludon is real?

Duraludon 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.
