What does Anorith 26 do in a game?
Anorith 26 is a Fighting Pokémon card with 70 HP, printed as Stage 1.
Its strongest attack, Fury Cutter, is printed at 10 damage for 2 Energy — 5 damage per Energy card.
Because of the Grass weakness, any Grass attack printed at 35 damage or more removes it in a single turn.

What do the attacks on Anorith 26 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 1 attack. 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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Fury Cutter | 1 Fighting + 1 Colorless | 2 | 10+ | 5 | Flip 3 coins. If 1 of them is heads, this attack does 10 damage plus 10 more damage. If 2 of them are heads, this attack does 10 damage plus 30 more damage. If all of them are heads, this attack does 10 damage plus 50 more damage. |
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.
Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol
A number on a Pokémon card is not always the number that lands.
- Fury Cutter 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 Anorith 26 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 70 HP, which is 18% 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 Anorith 26 does without attacking
Anorith 26 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 Anorith 26 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 2 typically return 32.5 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 |
| Anorith 26 — 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 |
|---|---|---|---|

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 Fighting card do for Anorith 26?
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.

|---|---|---|
| Psychic | 13.5% | 2,335 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 Fighting weakness.
What being a Fighting card is worth
Groups that most often print a Fighting weakness: Colorless (2,173 cards), Lightning (1,520 cards) and Darkness (1,249 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Fighting cards are themselves most exposed to Grass.
What knocks out Anorith 26 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Grass attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 35 printed damage rather than 70.

Anorith 2670 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 1,044 cards in the archive that can remove Anorith 26 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.

| Decidueye ex (12) | Perfect Order | 320 | 240 | 480 |
70 HP against a Grass ×2 weakness means any Grass attack printed at 35 damage or more is enough. 1,052 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Back to summaryWhat is Anorith as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Anorith 26 is one print of Anorith. 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 Anorith 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 Anorith 26 can be?
Anorith evolves from Claw Fossil, 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 Claw Fossil.
- It is not the end of the line either — Armaldo 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 Anorith print, and can the older ones still be played?
10 prints carry this name in the archive, and 9 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.
Bar height and the number above each bar = highest HP that year; the two digits below = the year.
| Set | Regulation mark | Standard | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Anorith 111/236 | SM - Cosmic Eclipse | No mark printed | Not legal in Standard |
| Anorith 095/195 | SWSH12: Silver Tempest | Mark F | Legal in Standard |

| Anorith δ 57/110 | EX Holon Phantoms | No mark printed | Not legal in Standard |
| Anorith 29/92 | EX Legend Maker | No mark printed | Not legal in Standard |
1 of the 9 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 Anorith 26?
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 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lucario | Pokémon Rumble | 90 | 80 | 1 |
| Rhydon | Skyridge | 90 | 100 | 2 |
| Magcargo | Skyridge | 80 | 40 | 3 |
| Graveler | Legendary Collection | 60 | 40 | 2 |
| Dark Donphan | Neo Destiny | 60 | 50 | 3 |
| Brock's Rhydon | Gym Heroes | 80 | 70 | 3 |
This card itself is 70 HP, 10 top damage and 1 retreat, and every card here is Fighting like it.

Which rules apply to Anorith 26, 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.

Anorith 26 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, Fury Cutter, 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.
- It cannot start the game in play — Claw Fossil has to be on the field first.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Grass attack printed at 35 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 70 HP.
- 1,052 cards in the archive clear that bar.
