Rayquaza C 8 — every printed attack, its cost and its damage
Attack	Energy cost	Cards of Energy	Printed damage	Damage per Energy	Effect
Trash Burst	1 Colorless	1	10+	10	You may discard up to 5 Energy cards from your hand. If you do, this attack does 10 damage plus 10 more damage for each Energy card you discarded.
Twister	4 Colorless	4	50	13	Flip 2 coins. If both are tails, this attack does nothing. For each heads, discard an Energy attached to the Defending Pokémon.

Retreating costs a further 3 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.

Trash Burst1 Energy card

Twister4 Energy cards

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.

Trash Burst 1 Energy10 damage for 1 Energy — 10 per Energy card10
Twister 4 Energy50 damage for 4 Energy — 13 per Energy card50

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (50).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

Trash Burst 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 Rayquaza C 8 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.

Is Rayquaza C 8 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 50 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

Back to summary

Is Rayquaza C 8 strong for a SP card?

SP 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 Colorless card do for Rayquaza C 8?

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.

What knocks out Rayquaza C 8 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Weakness doubles the damage a Colorless attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 50 printed damage rather than 100.

Why this card was picked to stand opposite

Of the 851 cards in the archive that can remove Rayquaza C 8 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.

Rayquaza Cweak to Colorless ×2

Rayquaza Cresists Fighting -20

Read from the two boxes in the lower-left corner of the card — weakness multiplies incoming damage, resistance subtracts from it.

What the Fighting resistance changes

Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack printed high enough to knock this card out on paper may not do it. Resistance is a flat subtraction, not a multiplier — it does not scale with the attack.

Rayquaza C 8 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, Twister, needs 4 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 4 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 13 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 3 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

Colorless cardsNo. 693 of 2,171

Supreme VictorsNo. 15 of 146

What actually removes it

A Colorless attack printed at 50 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 100 HP.
860 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 71 cards in one attack.
Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack that clears the bar on paper may still fall short.

Rayquaza C 8 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Rayquaza C 8?

Rayquaza C 8 has 100 HP and a Colorless weakness at ×2, so a Colorless attack printed at 50 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 100.

What is the strongest attack on Rayquaza C 8?

Twister, printed at 50 damage for 4 Energy — 13 damage per Energy card. Flip 2 coins. If both are tails, this attack does nothing. For each heads, discard an Energy attached to the Defending Pokémon.

What is the retreat cost of Rayquaza C 8?

3 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 Trash Burst 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 — "You may discard up to 5 Energy cards from your hand. If you do, this attack does 10 damage plus 10 more damage for each Energy card you discarded."

Can an older Rayquaza C print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 3 prints listed on this page, 0 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 Rayquaza C 8 be played in a tournament?

It is legal in Unlimited play. Standard events run on a rotating list of sets, so check the current rotation before entering one.

Does this page say how good Rayquaza C 8 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.
