The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 4 Energy and returns 110 damage, which is 28 damage for every Energy card attached.

Terrakion SM223 — every printed attack, its cost and its damage
Attack	Energy cost	Cards of Energy	Printed damage	Damage per Energy	Effect
Cavern Counter	1 Fighting + 2 Colorless	3	50+	17	If all of your Benched Pokémon have at least 1 damage counter on them, this attack does 150 more damage.
Boulder Crush	2 Fighting + 2 Colorless	4	110	28	No extra effect.

Retreating costs a further 4 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.

Cavern Counter3 Energy cards

Boulder Crush4 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.

Cavern Counter 3 Energy50 damage for 3 Energy — 17 per Energy card50
Boulder Crush 4 Energy110 damage for 4 Energy — 28 per Energy card110

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (110).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

Cavern Counter 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 Terrakion SM223 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 Terrakion SM223 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 110 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

What does being a Fighting card do for Terrakion SM223?

Terrakion SM223 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, Boulder Crush, needs 4 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 4 turns from an empty card.
That works out at 28 damage for every Energy card attached.
Moving it out of the active spot costs 4 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

What actually removes it

A Grass attack printed at 70 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 140 HP.
534 cards in the archive clear that bar.
Going the other way, it removes 3,221 cards in one attack.

Terrakion SM223 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Terrakion SM223?

Terrakion SM223 has 140 HP and a Grass weakness at ×2, so a Grass attack printed at 70 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 140.

What is the strongest attack on Terrakion SM223?

Boulder Crush, printed at 110 damage for 4 Energy — 28 damage per Energy card.

What is the retreat cost of Terrakion SM223?

4 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 Cavern Counter 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 all of your Benched Pokémon have at least 1 damage counter on them, this attack does 150 more damage."

Can an older Terrakion print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 15 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.

Can Terrakion SM223 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 Terrakion SM223 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.
