What do the attacks on Flareon δ 5 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 50 damage, which is 17 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Delta Search | 1 Colorless | 1 | 10 | 10 | Search your deck for a Holon Energy card and attach it to Flareon. Shuffle your deck afterward. |
| Return Burn | 1 Fire + 1 Metal + 1 Colorless | 3 | 50 | 17 | You may return an Energy card attached to Flareon to your hand. If you do, the Defending Pokémon is now Burned. |
Retreating costs a further 1 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
What each 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.

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.

Back to summaryIs Flareon δ 5 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 50 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 1 typically return 49.0 damage per Energy card. This card returns 17.
| Group | Share | Value |

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.

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 50 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
What does being a Fire card do for Flareon δ 5?
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.

What being a Fire card is worth
Groups that most often print a Fire weakness: Grass (2,387 cards) and Metal (925 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Fire cards are themselves most exposed to Water.
What knocks out Flareon δ 5 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 35 printed damage rather than 70.

Flareon δ 570 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 1,263 cards in the archive that can remove Flareon δ 5 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.

Which rules apply to Flareon δ 5, 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.
The rule printed on this card
“This Pokémon is both Fire Metal type.”
| Clause | What the rulebook says | Cards it applies to | Share of the archive |

| 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.

Flareon δ 5 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, Return Burn, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 17 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 — Eevee has to be on the field first.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Water attack printed at 35 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 70 HP.
- 1,277 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 2,339 cards in one attack.
