Back to summaryIs Hitmontop 102 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 50 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 25.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Energy | 49.0 | 49 damage typical |
| 2 Energy | 32.5 | 65 damage typical |
| 3 Energy | 34.7 | 104 damage typical |

| Hitmontop 102 — this card | 25.0 | 50 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.

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 Fighting card do for Hitmontop 102?
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 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 Psychic.
What knocks out Hitmontop 102 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Psychic attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 50 printed damage rather than 100.

Hitmontop 102100 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 857 cards in the archive that can remove Hitmontop 102 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 50 printed damage against a bar of 50. 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 Hitmontop as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Hitmontop 102 is one print of Hitmontop. 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 Hitmontop 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 Hitmontop print, and can the older ones still be played?
15 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.

1 of the 15 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.

Which rules apply to Hitmontop 102, 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% |

| Energy per turn | You can attach Energy just once each turn! | 17,180 cards | 84.0% |

Where this card can be played
This card is legal in Unlimited and Expanded play. It carries regulation mark J, printed next to the card number. It was released on January 30, 2026.
Which generation of cards does Hitmontop 102 belong to?
The single letter printed beside the card number groups a card with everything issued under the same rules. Tournament formats are cut along those letters, so the size of a letter is the size of the pool a card sits in.
8,194 cards in the archive carry a regulation mark. Older prints carry none at all, so this is not the whole archive.
The regulation mark is the single letter recorded with each modern card. Older prints carry no mark at all, so this axis covers only the part of the archive that has one.

Hitmontop 102 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, Low Kick, needs 2 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 2 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 25 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 Psychic attack printed at 50 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 100 HP.
- 862 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 2,134 cards in one attack.
