What do the attacks on Suicune 26 cost, and what do they hit for?

The card prints 1 attack. The strongest asks for 2 Energy and returns 30 damage, which is 15 damage for every Energy card attached.

Suicune 26 — every printed attack, its cost and its damage
Attack	Energy cost	Cards of Energy	Printed damage	Damage per Energy	Effect
Crystal Fall	2 Water	2	30+	15	If you have at least 4 Water Energy in play, this attack does 90 more damage.

Retreating costs a further 2 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.

Crystal Fall2 Energy cards

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.

Crystal Fall 2 Energy30 damage for 2 Energy — 15 per Energy card30

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (30).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

A number on a Pokémon card is not always the number that lands.

Crystal Fall is printed as 30+, so the printed number is a floor — the attack deals at least that much, and the sentence beside it says what adds to it.

Is Suicune 26 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Suicune 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, Crystal Fall, needs 2 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 2 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 15 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 4,029 of 17,290

Water cardsNo. 529 of 2,435

Phantasmal FlamesNo. 39 of 110

What actually removes it

A Lightning attack printed at 65 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 130 HP.
562 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 288 cards in one attack.

Suicune 26 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Suicune 26?

Suicune 26 has 130 HP and a Lightning weakness at ×2, so a Lightning attack printed at 65 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 130.

What is the strongest attack on Suicune 26?

Crystal Fall, printed at 30 damage for 2 Energy — 15 damage per Energy card. If you have at least 4 Water Energy in play, this attack does 90 more damage.

What is the retreat cost of Suicune 26?

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

What does the + after the damage on Crystal Fall mean?

It marks the damage as conditional: the printed figure is the least it can deal, and the sentence on the card says what is added to it. The full sentence is printed on the card and quoted in the attack table on this page — "If you have at least 4 Water Energy in play, this attack does 90 more damage."

Can an older Suicune print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 28 prints listed on this page, 2 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.

Can Suicune 26 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited and Standard and Expanded play, and it carries regulation mark I. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

Does this page say how good Suicune 26 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.
