What do the attacks on Fraxure 14 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 1 attack. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 60 damage, which is 20 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dragon Claw | 1 Fighting + 1 Metal + 1 Colorless | 3 | 60 | 20 | No extra effect. |
Retreating costs a further 1 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
The Energy this attack asks a deck to attach before it can be used, drawn as the symbols printed on the card.
One Energy card attaches per turn, so the number of symbols is also the number of turns the attack waits.
How does Fraxure 14 compare with every other card?
Each bar below is the whole archive cut by one printed figure, with the band this card falls into marked. A number on its own says nothing about whether it is high or low — the shape of the archive does.

This card prints 70 HP, which is 18% of that ceiling.

Back to summaryWhat Fraxure 14 does without attacking
Fraxure 14 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.
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 Fraxure 14 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 60 damage attack that needs 3 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.
Each bar is what cards asking that much Energy typically print, divided by the Energy they ask for. The number beside the bar is that figure.
Cards whose cheapest attack costs 3 typically return 34.7 damage per Energy card. This card returns 20.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Energy | 49.0 | 49 damage typical |
| 2 Energy | 32.5 | 65 damage typical |
| 3 Energy | 34.7 | 104 damage typical |
| 4 Energy | 27.8 | 111 damage typical |
| 5 Energy | 41.8 | 209 damage typical |
| Fraxure 14 — this card | 20.0 | 60 damage for 3 Energy |
Further right is a costlier attack, further up is a harder-hitting one, so the cheap and heavy corner is top left. The size of a grey dot is how many cards sit at that Energy cost.
| Group | Typical printed damage | Damage per Energy card | Cards in this group |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cheapest attack costs 0 Energy | 45 | — | 304 |

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 60 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
What does being a Dragon card do for Fraxure 14?
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.
17,249 cards carry an energy type. The note under each name is the weakness printed most often on that group.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Psychic | 13.5% | 2,335 cards |
| Water | 14.1% | 2,435 cards |
| Colorless | 12.6% | 2,173 cards |
| Fire | 9.1% | 1,574 cards |

| Darkness | 7.2% | 1,249 cards |
| Dragon — this card | 3.1% | 530 cards |
| Fairy | 1.4% | 237 cards |
Read from the weakness printed on each group. The first row is this card; the rest are groups that most often print a Dragon weakness.
What being a Dragon card is worth
No group in the archive most often prints a Dragon weakness, so this type gains nothing automatic from the weakness rule. Going the other way, Dragon cards are themselves most exposed to Dragon.
What knocks out Fraxure 14 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Dragon attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 35 printed damage rather than 70.

Fraxure 1470 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 418 cards in the archive that can remove Fraxure 14 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 40 printed damage against a bar of 35. 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.

What is Fraxure as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Fraxure 14 is one print of Fraxure. 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.
Every Fraxure print on record, split by whether it can still be entered in Standard play.
Legality is read from the print rather than from the Pokémon, so an older copy of the same Pokémon is a different card for tournament purposes.
Back to summaryWhat has to be in play before Fraxure 14 can be?
Fraxure evolves from Axew, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.
- This card cannot be played from your hand onto an empty spot — it goes on top of Axew.
- It is not the end of the line either — Haxorus evolves from this card, so a deck can keep going past it.
- The line runs 3 stages, so the first card has to be in play 2 turns before this one can be.
Every print of a stage is counted, not just the one shown in the chain above, so the bar is the ceiling that stage has reached rather than one card from it.
Is this the strongest Fraxure print, and can the older ones still be played?
11 prints carry this name in the archive. They share a Pokémon but not a card — printed HP, printed damage and tournament legality all move from one print to the next.
Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.

| Fraxure 14/20 | Dragon Vault | No mark printed | Not legal in Standard |
5 of the 11 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.
Back to summaryWhat can you use instead of Fraxure 14?
Every card below asks a deck for the same kind of slot, so the comparison is between what they print, not what they cost.
| Card | Set | HP | Top damage | Retreat |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Altaria | Boundaries Crossed | 70 | 40 | 1 |
| Dragalge | XY Black Star Promos | 100 | 60 | 1 |

| Fraxure | Black Bolt | 100 | 90 | 2 |
| Shelgon | Celestial Storm | 90 | 30 | 3 |
This card itself is 70 HP, 60 top damage and 1 retreat, and every card here is Dragon like it.

Which rules apply to Fraxure 14, 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.
| 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.

Fraxure 14 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, Dragon Claw, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 20 damage for every Energy card attached.
- Moving it out of the active spot costs 1 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
- It cannot start the game in play — Axew has to be on the field first.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Dragon attack printed at 35 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 70 HP.
- 419 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 42 cards in one attack.
