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.

Incendiary Pillar 1 Energy50 damage for 1 Energy — 50 per Energy card50
Burn It All Up 2 Energy180 damage for 2 Energy — 90 per Energy card180

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (180).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

Incendiary Pillar is printed as 50+, 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 Chandelure 18 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 Chandelure 18 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 180 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.

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

What does being a Fire card do for Chandelure 18?

Of the 636 cards in the archive that can remove Chandelure 18 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 80 printed damage against a bar of 75. 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 Chandelure as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Chandelure 18 is one print of Chandelure. 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.

Chandelure has been printed 24 times, and the printed numbers move from one print to the next. Point at a card to see it full size.Tap a card to open its page.

What has to be in play before Chandelure 18 can be?

Chandelure evolves from Lampent, 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 Lampent.
The line runs 3 stages, so the first card has to be in play 2 turns before this one can be.
Every print in the line shares Pokédex number 609.

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (150 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.

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

24 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 (350 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

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.

Chandelure 18 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, Burn It All Up, needs 2 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 2 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 90 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 — Lampent has to be on the field first.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 3,166 of 17,290

Fire cardsNo. 317 of 1,574

Stage 2 cardsNo. 624 of 1,749

White FlareNo. 28 of 162

What actually removes it

A Water attack printed at 75 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 150 HP.
637 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 3,073 cards in one attack.

Chandelure 18 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Chandelure 18?

Chandelure 18 has 150 HP and a Water weakness at ×2, so a Water attack printed at 75 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 150.

What is the strongest attack on Chandelure 18?

Burn It All Up, printed at 180 damage for 2 Energy — 90 damage per Energy card. Discard all Energy from this Pokémon.

What is the retreat cost of Chandelure 18?

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 Incendiary Pillar 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 10 or more Basic Fire Energy cards in your discard pile, this attack does 100 more damage."

Can an older Chandelure print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 24 prints listed on this page, 9 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 Chandelure evolve from?

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

Can Chandelure 18 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 Chandelure 18 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.
