What do the attacks on Munkidori ex 37 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 1 attack. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 190 damage, which is 63 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Dirty Headbutt | 2 Darkness + 1 Colorless | 3 | 190 | 63 | During your next turn, this Pokémon can't use Dirty Headbutt. |
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.

Back to summaryWhat Munkidori ex 37 does without attacking
Munkidori ex 37 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.
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.
Is Munkidori ex 37 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 190 damage attack that needs 3 Energy and one that needs two are different cards. Dividing one by the other puts every attack on the same scale.
Each bar is what cards asking that much Energy typically print, divided by the Energy they ask for. The number beside the bar is that figure.
Cards whose cheapest attack costs 3 typically return 34.7 damage per Energy card. This card returns 63.

| Munkidori ex 37 — this card | 63.0 | 190 damage for 3 Energy |
Further right is a costlier attack, further up is a harder-hitting one, so the cheap and heavy corner is top left. The size of a grey dot is how many cards sit at that Energy cost.

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 190 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
Is Munkidori ex 37 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.
The group is every ex card in the archive — 942 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.
What does being a Darkness card do for Munkidori ex 37?
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.

Read from the weakness printed on each group. The first row is this card; the rest are groups that most often print a Darkness weakness.
What being a Darkness card is worth
No group in the archive most often prints a Darkness weakness, so this type gains nothing automatic from the weakness rule. Going the other way, Darkness cards are themselves most exposed to Fighting.
What knocks out Munkidori ex 37 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Fighting attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 105 printed damage rather than 210.
Medicham110 damage110 damage becomes 220 against this card
Munkidori ex 37210 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 406 cards in the archive that can remove Munkidori ex 37 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 110 printed damage against a bar of 105. 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.

210 HP against a Fighting ×2 weakness means any Fighting attack printed at 105 damage or more is enough. 407 cards in the archive clear that bar.

What is Munkidori as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Munkidori ex 37 is one print of Munkidori. 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 Munkidori 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 summaryIs this the strongest Munkidori print, and can the older ones still be played?
7 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.

7 of the 7 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.

Munkidori ex 37 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, Dirty Headbutt, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 63 damage for every Energy card attached.
- Moving it out of the active spot costs 1 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Fighting attack printed at 105 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 210 HP.
- 407 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 945 cards in one attack.
