Is Palkia 11 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Where this sits once the archive is cut by damage instead

What does being a Water card do for Palkia 11?

Type decides two things at once — which cards take double damage from this one, and which cards deal double to it. Both are read from the weakness printed on each group, not from a rule of thumb.

Of the 489 cards in the archive that can remove Palkia 11 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 80 printed damage against a bar of 80.

What is Palkia as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Palkia 11 is one print of Palkia. The figures below are about the Pokémon rather than this single card — how many times it has been printed, how tough those prints run, and how many of them can still be played.

Palkia has been printed 43 times, and the printed numbers move from one print to the next. Point at a card to see it full size.Tap a card to open its page.

Is this the strongest Palkia print, and can the older ones still be played?

43 prints carry this name in the archive, and 36 of them are laid out below. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.

The rule printed on this card

“Lustrous Orb: If an Active Pokémon has Weakness to Water type, Palkia's attacks do 20 more damage to that Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance).”

Palkia 11 in depth — what these figures add up to

Three readings of the same card, side by side: what it costs to get going, where it sits among the cards it will be compared with, and what takes it off the field.

What it asks a deck for

Its hardest attack, Pearl Blast, needs 4 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 4 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 15 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 3 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

Palkia 11 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Palkia 11?

Palkia 11 has 100 HP and a Lightning weakness at +20, so a Lightning attack printed at 80 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 100.

What is the strongest attack on Palkia 11?

Pearl Blast, printed at 60 damage for 4 Energy — 15 damage per Energy card. You may return an Energy card attached to Palkia to your hand. If you do, choose an Energy card attached to the Defending Pokémon and return it to your opponent's hand.

What is the retreat cost of Palkia 11?

3 Energy, discarded from this card to move it out of the active spot. Retreating is allowed once per turn.

Can an older Palkia print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 36 prints listed on this page, 9 are legal in Standard play. The rest can still be played in formats that accept them, and the table on this page names the regulation mark each print carries.

Can Palkia 11 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited play. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

What does the rule on Palkia 11 mean?

The card reads “Lustrous Orb: If an Active Pokémon has Weakness to Water type, Palkia's attacks do 20 more damage to that Pokémon (before applying Weakness and Resistance).” That sentence is printed on the card itself, so it applies wherever the card is played.

Does this page say how good Palkia 11 is in a deck?

No. Every figure here is read from the printed card. Deck lists, tournament results and win rates are not published on this site, because the card files it reads do not contain them.
