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.

Blazing Burst 3 Energy130 damage for 3 Energy — 43 per Energy card130

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (130).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

Blazing Burst is printed as 130+, so the printed number is a floor — the attack deals at least that much, and the sentence beside it says what adds to it.

Is Reshiram ex 20 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 130 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

Is Reshiram ex 20 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.

12 of the 42 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 Reshiram ex 20, 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.”

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.

Reshiram ex 20 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, Blazing Burst, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 43 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 1,070 of 17,290

Fire cardsNo. 101 of 1,574

ex cardsNo. 511 of 942

White FlareNo. 7 of 162

What actually removes it

A Water attack printed at 115 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 230 HP.
377 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 2,949 cards in one attack.

Reshiram ex 20 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Reshiram ex 20?

Reshiram ex 20 has 230 HP and a Water weakness at ×2, so a Water attack printed at 115 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 230.

What is the strongest attack on Reshiram ex 20?

Blazing Burst, printed at 130 damage for 3 Energy — 43 damage per Energy card. This attack does 50 more damage for each Prize card your opponent has taken. Discard an Energy from this Pokémon.

What is the retreat cost of Reshiram ex 20?

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 Blazing 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 — "This attack does 50 more damage for each Prize card your opponent has taken. Discard an Energy from this Pokémon."

Can an older Reshiram print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 42 prints listed on this page, 12 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 Reshiram ex 20 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.

What does the rule on Reshiram ex 20 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 Reshiram ex 20 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.
