Strategy & play
How Team Magma's Torkoal 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 (Hot Air) needs 2 Energy — a turn-2 swing on manual attachment.
- Needs Fire Energy to attack — your line must supply that color.
- Fire / Darkness type, weak to Water ×2 — a Water attacker doing ≥40 effectively one-shots it.
- A single-prize attacker — prize-trade-positive against ex / V decks that give up two at a time.
