What Charizard 103 does without attacking

Charizard 103 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.

Printed effects

Capped at once a turn

None

Read from the printed text quoted below, not counted anywhere else.

Energy Burn — Poké-Body

All Energy attached to Charizard are Fire Energy instead of their usual type.

Quoted from the card face. The label after the dash is how the card itself names the effect.

Why this sits apart from the attacks

An attack costs Energy and ends your turn. What is printed above does neither — it is available while the card is in play, so it is a different kind of cost to a deck. Attack costs are in the section above.

Is Charizard 103 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 100 damage attack that needs 4 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.

Where this sits once the archive is cut by damage instead

The bars above cut the archive by what an attack asks for. Cut the same archive by what an attack prints and the groups come out differently — the damage ranges on record are gathered on one page, which is where a figure like 100 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

What knocks out Charizard 103 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Weakness doubles the damage a Water attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 60 printed damage rather than 120.

Why this card was picked to stand opposite

Of the 914 cards in the archive that can remove Charizard 103 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 60 printed damage against a bar of 60. Anything printed higher removes it just as surely, so this is where the line actually sits, and this print is legal in Standard play today.

Charizardweak to Water ×2

Charizardresists Fighting -30

Read from the two boxes in the lower-left corner of the card — weakness multiplies incoming damage, resistance subtracts from it.

What the Fighting resistance changes

Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack printed high enough to knock this card out on paper may not do it. Resistance is a flat subtraction, not a multiplier — it does not scale with the attack.

27 of the 102 prints listed here are legal in Standard play. An older print of the same Pokémon is a different card for legality, because legality is read from the print rather than from the name — so owning the cheap old copy does not always mean you can enter with it.

What can you use instead of Charizard 103?

Every card below asks a deck for the same kind of slot, so the comparison is between what they print, not what they cost.

Cards that fill the same slot as Charizard 103
Card	Set	HP	Top damage	Retreat
Charizard	Plasma Storm	160	150	3
Charizard	Dragon	120	60	2
Typhlosion	Neo Genesis	100	80	2
Charizard	SM Black Star Promos	150	30	2
Blaine's Charizard	Gym Challenge	100	20	3
Charizard ex	FireRed & LeafGreen	160	200	2

This card itself is 120 HP, 100 top damage and 3 retreat, and every card here is Fire like it.

Back to summary

Every card below carries the same Pokédex number as this one, so they are the same Pokémon printed as different cards — different stages, different mechanics and different names all sit in this group.

Which rules apply to Charizard 103, and where can it be played?

Two kinds of rule meet on one card — the sentence printed on the card face, and the rulebook clauses that apply because of what the card carries.

Rulebook clauses that apply to Charizard 103
Clause	What the rulebook says	Cards it applies to	Share of the archive
Weakness	Some Pokemon have Weakness or Resistance to Pokemon of certain types, marked in the lower-left corner of the card.	16,744 cards	81.9%
Retreat	Retreat your Active Pokemon (only once per turn).	17,244 cards	84.3%
Energy per turn	You can attach Energy just once each turn!	17,180 cards	84.0%

Counted across 20,444 English cards. A clause applies to this card because the card carries the property the clause names, not because we judged it to.

Charizard 103 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, Fire Spin, needs 4 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 4 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 25 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 3 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
It cannot start the game in play — Charmeleon has to be on the field first.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 4,897 of 17,290

Fire cardsNo. 513 of 1,574

Stage 2 cardsNo. 1,297 of 1,749

StormfrontNo. 12 of 92

What actually removes it

A Water attack printed at 60 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 120 HP.
918 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 2,745 cards in one attack.
Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack that clears the bar on paper may still fall short.

Charizard 103 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Charizard 103?

Charizard 103 has 120 HP and a Water weakness at ×2, so a Water attack printed at 60 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 120.

What is the strongest attack on Charizard 103?

Fire Spin, printed at 100 damage for 4 Energy — 25 damage per Energy card. Discard 2 Energy attached to Charizard.

What is the retreat cost of Charizard 103?

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

Can an older Charizard print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 102 prints listed on this page, 27 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.

What does Charizard evolve from?

Charmeleon. It cannot be played straight from your hand onto an empty spot — the earlier stage has to be in play first.

Can Charizard 103 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.

Does this page say how good Charizard 103 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.
