Attack	Energy cost	Cards of Energy	Printed damage	Damage per Energy	Effect
Tremulous Fist	1 Fighting + 3 Colorless	4	80+	20	This attack does 30 more damage for each of your Benched Pokémon that has any damage counters on it.

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

Tremulous Fist4 Energy cards

The Energy this 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.

Tremulous Fist 4 Energy80 damage for 4 Energy — 20 per Energy card80

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (80).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

Tremulous Fist is printed as 80+, 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 Seismitoad 117 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.

What Seismitoad 117 does without attacking

Seismitoad 117 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.

Printed effects

Capped at once a turn

1 of 1

Read from the printed text quoted below, not counted anywhere else.

Bulldoze — Ability · once a turn

Once during your turn (before your attack), you may search your deck for a card, shuffle your deck, then put that card on top of it.

Quoted from the card face. The label after the dash is how the card itself names the effect.

Why this sits apart from the attacks

An attack costs Energy and ends your turn. What is printed above does neither — it is available while the card is in play, so it is a different kind of cost to a deck. Attack costs are in the section above.

Bulldoze can only be used once a turn

The words once during your turn are printed in it, which caps it at one use per turn on that one card. Two copies of the card in play are two separate Pokémon, so each carries its own use.

Is Seismitoad 117 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 80 damage attack that needs 4 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.

What is Seismitoad as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Seismitoad 117 is one print of Seismitoad. 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 Seismitoad 117 can be?

Seismitoad evolves from Palpitoad, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.

+30 HP · +40 damage

Palpitoad11 prints on record · Noble Victories

Seismitoad9 prints on record · Legendary Treasures

Tympole → Palpitoad → Seismitoad

This card cannot be played from your hand onto an empty spot — it goes on top of Palpitoad.
The line runs 3 stages, so the first card has to be in play 2 turns before this one can be.

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (170 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 Seismitoad print, and can the older ones still be played?

13 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 (180 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

3 of the 13 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.

Seismitoad 117 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, Tremulous Fist, needs 4 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 4 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 20 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 3 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
It cannot start the game in play — Palpitoad has to be on the field first.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 2,895 of 17,290

Fighting cardsNo. 282 of 1,884

Stage 2 cardsNo. 455 of 1,749

Cosmic EclipseNo. 56 of 232

What actually removes it

A Grass attack printed at 80 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 160 HP.
467 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 2,889 cards in one attack.

Seismitoad 117 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Seismitoad 117?

Seismitoad 117 has 160 HP and a Grass weakness at ×2, so a Grass attack printed at 80 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 160.

What is the strongest attack on Seismitoad 117?

Tremulous Fist, printed at 80 damage for 4 Energy — 20 damage per Energy card. This attack does 30 more damage for each of your Benched Pokémon that has any damage counters on it.

What is the retreat cost of Seismitoad 117?

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 Tremulous Fist 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 30 more damage for each of your Benched Pokémon that has any damage counters on it."

How often can you use Bulldoze?

Once during your turn. The limit is printed in the ability itself, and it is counted per Pokémon — a second copy of Seismitoad in play carries its own use.

Can an older Seismitoad print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 13 prints listed on this page, 3 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 Seismitoad evolve from?

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

Can Seismitoad 117 be played in a tournament?

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

Does this page say how good Seismitoad 117 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.
