Is Salazzle ex 16 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

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 100 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

Is Salazzle ex 16 strong for a ex card?

ex 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.

What does being a Fire card do for Salazzle ex 16?

Of the 270 cards in the archive that can remove Salazzle ex 16 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 130 printed damage against a bar of 130. 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 Salazzle as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Salazzle ex 16 is one print of Salazzle. 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.

What has to be in play before Salazzle ex 16 can be?

Salazzle ex evolves from Salandit, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.

The Salazzle line, oldest stage first

Salandit13 prints on record · Dragon Majesty

+50 HP · +100 damage

Salazzle10 prints on record · SM - Unbroken Bonds

Salandit → Salazzle

This card cannot be played from your hand onto an empty spot — it goes on top of Salandit.
The line runs 2 stages, so the first card has to be in play 1 turn before this one can be.

1SalanditHardest attack printed at this stage: 30 damage70 HP
2SalazzleHardest attack printed at this stage: 130 damage. Evolving here adds 50 HP over the stage before it120 HP

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (120 HP). The note beside each bar is the hardest attack printed at that stage.

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.

Back to summary

Is this the strongest Salazzle print, and can the older ones still be played?

21 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.

Rows run from the toughest print down. Bars are printed HP, measured against the toughest print of this name shown here (260 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

Salazzle ex 16 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, Dire Nails, needs 2 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 2 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 50 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 — Salandit has to be on the field first.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 765 of 17,290

Fire cardsNo. 76 of 1,574

ex cardsNo. 387 of 942

Perfect OrderNo. 13 of 93

What actually removes it

A Water attack printed at 130 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 260 HP.
270 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 2,745 cards in one attack.

Salazzle ex 16 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Salazzle ex 16?

Salazzle ex 16 has 260 HP and a Water weakness at ×2, so a Water attack printed at 130 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 260.

What is the strongest attack on Salazzle ex 16?

Dire Nails, printed at 100 damage for 2 Energy — 50 damage per Energy card. Your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Burned and Poisoned. Switch this Pokémon with 1 of your Benched Pokémon.

What is the retreat cost of Salazzle ex 16?

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

Can an older Salazzle print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 21 prints listed on this page, 5 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.

What does Salazzle ex evolve from?

Salandit. It cannot be played straight from your hand onto an empty spot — the earlier stage has to be in play first.

Can Salazzle ex 16 be played in a tournament?

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

What does the rule on Salazzle ex 16 mean?

The card reads “Pokémon ex rule: When your Pokémon ex is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.” That sentence is printed on the card itself, so it applies wherever the card is played.

Does this page say how good Salazzle ex 16 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.
