What do the attacks on Kecleon 37 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 2 Energy and returns 10 damage, which is 5 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tongue Whip | 1 Colorless | 1 | — | — | Choose 1 of your opponent's Pokémon. This attack does 10 damage to that Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) |
| Quick Attack | 2 Colorless | 2 | 10+ | 5 | Flip a coin. If heads, this attack does 10 damage plus 20 more damage. |
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.
Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol
A number on a Pokémon card is not always the number that lands.
- Quick Attack is printed as 10+, so the printed number is a floor — the attack deals at least that much, and the sentence beside it says what adds to it.
How does Kecleon 37 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.

The ceiling of this archive is Mega Emboar ex at 380 HP — every bar here is measured against it.
This card prints 60 HP, which is 16% of that ceiling.
Every figure in this panel is counted the same way: from the card files this site reads, read July 28, 2026, over the 17,290 cards that print an HP figure. Each bar is measured against the tallest HP in the archive, 380 HP.

Back to summaryWhat Kecleon 37 does without attacking
Kecleon 37 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 Kecleon 37 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 10 damage attack that needs 2 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 5.
| 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 |
| Kecleon 37 — this card | 5.0 | 10 damage for 2 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 |
| Cheapest attack costs 1 Energy | 49 | 49 | 9,392 |
| Cheapest attack costs 2 Energy | 65 | 33 | 4,565 |
| Cheapest attack costs 3 Energy | 104 | 35 | 2,533 |
| Cheapest attack costs 4 Energy | 111 | 28 | 421 |

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 10 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
What does being a Colorless card do for Kecleon 37?
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 — this card | 12.6% | 2,173 cards |
| Fire | 9.1% | 1,574 cards |
| Fighting | 10.9% | 1,884 cards |
| Lightning | 8.8% | 1,520 cards |
| Grass | 13.8% | 2,387 cards |
| Metal | 5.4% | 925 cards |
| Darkness | 7.2% | 1,249 cards |
| Dragon | 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 Colorless weakness.
What being a Colorless card is worth
No group in the archive most often prints a Colorless weakness, so this type gains nothing automatic from the weakness rule. Going the other way, Colorless cards are themselves most exposed to Fighting.
What knocks out Kecleon 37 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Fighting attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 30 printed damage rather than 60.
30 damage becomes 60 against this card
Kecleon 3760 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 1,430 cards in the archive that can remove Kecleon 37 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 30 printed damage against a bar of 30. 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.

| Toxtricity ex (100) | Paradox Rift | 260 | 270 | 540 |
60 HP against a Fighting ×2 weakness means any Fighting attack printed at 30 damage or more is enough. 1,446 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Back to summaryWhat is Kecleon as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Kecleon 37 is one print of Kecleon. 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 Kecleon 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 summaryIs this the strongest Kecleon print, and can the older ones still be played?
12 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.
| Set | Regulation mark | Standard | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Kecleon 122/198 | SWSH06: Chilling Reign | Mark E | Not legal in Standard |

| Kecleon 18/100 | EX Sandstorm | No mark printed | Not legal in Standard |
| Kecleon 37/92 | EX Legend Maker | No mark printed | Not legal in Standard |
3 of the 12 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.

Kecleon 37 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, Quick Attack, needs 2 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 2 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 5 damage for every Energy card attached.
- Moving it out of the active spot costs 1 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Fighting attack printed at 30 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 60 HP.
- 1,446 cards in the archive clear that bar.
