What do the attacks on Mega Eelektross ex 61 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 190 damage, which is 63 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Split Bomb | 2 Lightning | 2 | — | — | This attack does 60 damage to each of 2 of your opponent's Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) |
| Disaster Shock | 3 Lightning | 3 | 190 | 63 | You may discard 2 Lightning Energy from this Pokémon and make your opponent's Active Pokémon Paralyzed. |
Retreating costs a further 2 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.

Back to summaryIs Mega Eelektross ex 61 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 190 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 2 typically return 32.5 damage per Energy card. This card returns 63.
| Group | Share | Value |

| 1 Energy | 49.0 | 49 damage typical |

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 190 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
Is Mega Eelektross ex 61 strong for a MEGA card?
MEGA cards are built large to begin with, so measuring this one against the whole archive mixes up what the mechanic gives it with what the card itself gives it. Measured inside its own group, the two come apart.
The group is every MEGA card in the archive — 207 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.
What does being a Lightning card do for Mega Eelektross ex 61?
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 |

Read from the weakness printed on each group. The first row is this card; the rest are groups that most often print a Lightning weakness.
What being a Lightning card is worth
Groups that most often print a Lightning weakness: Water (2,435 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Lightning cards are themselves most exposed to Fighting.
What knocks out Mega Eelektross ex 61 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 175 printed damage rather than 350.

Mega Eelektross ex 61350 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 143 cards in the archive that can remove Mega Eelektross ex 61 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 180 printed damage against a bar of 175. 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.

350 HP against a Fighting ×2 weakness means any Fighting attack printed at 175 damage or more is enough. 144 cards in the archive clear that bar.

What is Mega Eelektross as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Mega Eelektross ex 61 is one print of Mega Eelektross. 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 Mega Eelektross 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 Mega Eelektross ex 61 can be?
Mega Eelektross ex evolves from Eelektrik, 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 Eelektrik.
- The line runs 2 stages, so the first card has to be in play 1 turn 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 Mega Eelektross print, and can the older ones still be played?
3 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.
| Set | Regulation mark | Standard | |

| Mega Eelektross ex 266/217 | ME: Ascended Heroes | Mark I | Legal in Standard |
3 of the 3 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 Mega Eelektross ex 61?
Every card below asks a deck for the same kind of slot, so the comparison is between what they print, not what they cost.

Which rules apply to Mega Eelektross ex 61, 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
“Pokémon ex rule: When your Pokémon ex is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards. Mega Evolution ex Rule: When your Mega Evolution Pokémon ex is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 3 Prize cards.”
Prize cards your opponent takes when it is knocked out
Every knockout carries the opponent 2 steps closer to winning, and that is the cost of putting this card on the field whatever it cost to buy.
| 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.

Where this card can be played
This card is legal in Standard and Unlimited and Expanded play. It carries regulation mark I, printed next to the card number. It was released on January 30, 2026.
Which generation of cards does Mega Eelektross ex 61 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.

Mega Eelektross ex 61 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, Disaster Shock, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 63 damage for every Energy card attached.
- Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
- It cannot start the game in play — Eelektrik has to be on the field first.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Fighting attack printed at 175 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 350 HP.
- 144 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 2,395 cards in one attack.
