What do the attacks on Surskit 15 cost, and what do they hit for?
Every attack printed on the card, with the Energy it asks for.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bubble | 1 Colorless | 1 | — | — | Flip a coin. If heads, your opponent's Active Pokémon is now Paralyzed. |
Retreating costs a further 1 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
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.

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.

Back to summaryWhat does being a Grass card do for Surskit 15?
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.
17,249 cards carry an energy type. The note under each name is the weakness printed most often on that group.

What being a Grass card is worth
Groups that most often print a Grass weakness: Fighting (1,884 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Grass cards are themselves most exposed to Fire.
What knocks out Surskit 15 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Fire attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 25 printed damage rather than 50.

Surskit 1550 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 1,191 cards in the archive that can remove Surskit 15 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 30 printed damage against a bar of 25. 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.

| Charizard VSTAR (19) | Crown Zenith | 280 | 320 | 640 |
50 HP against a Fire ×2 weakness means any Fire attack printed at 25 damage or more is enough. 1,208 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Back to summaryWhat is Surskit as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Surskit 15 is one print of Surskit. 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.
Every Surskit print on record, split by whether it can still be entered in Standard play.
Legality is read from the print rather than from the Pokémon, so an older copy of the same Pokémon is a different card for tournament purposes.
Back to summaryWhat has to be in play before Surskit 15 can be?
Surskit evolves from an earlier stage, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.
- It is not the end of the line either — Masquerain evolves from this card, so a deck can keep going past it.
- The line runs 2 stages, so the first card has to be in play 1 turn before this one can be.
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 Surskit print, and can the older ones still be played?
14 prints carry this name in the archive, and 13 of them are laid out below. 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.

2 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.
