What do the attacks on Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 2 attacks. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 70 damage, which is 23 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Peck | 1 Fighting | 1 | 40 | 40 | No extra effect. |
| Leek Strike | 1 Fighting + 2 Colorless | 3 | 70+ | 23 | If this Pokémon has a Pokémon Tool attached, this attack does 90 more damage, and this attack's damage isn't affected by Resistance. |
Retreating costs a further 2 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.
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.
Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol
A number on a Pokémon card is not always the number that lands.
- Leek Strike is printed as 70+, 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 Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 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.

Back to summaryIs Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 70 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 1 typically return 49.0 damage per Energy card. This card returns 23.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Energy | 49.0 | 49 damage typical |
| 2 Energy | 32.5 | 65 damage typical |

| Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 — this card | 23.0 | 70 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 70 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
Is Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 strong for a Single Strike card?
Single Strike 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 Single Strike card in the archive — 147 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.
What does being a Fighting card do for Galarian Sirfetch'd 79?
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 Fighting card is worth
Groups that most often print a Fighting weakness: Colorless (2,173 cards), Lightning (1,520 cards) and Darkness (1,249 cards). Against those, this card's printed damage counts double. Going the other way, Fighting cards are themselves most exposed to Psychic.
What knocks out Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Psychic attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 65 printed damage rather than 130.

Galarian Sirfetch'd 79130 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 546 cards in the archive that can remove Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 70 printed damage against a bar of 65. 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.

What is Galarian Sirfetch'd as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?
Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 is one print of Galarian Sirfetch'd. 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 Galarian Sirfetch'd 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 Galarian Sirfetch'd print, and can the older ones still be played?
7 prints carry this name in the archive, and 5 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.

0 of the 5 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 generation of cards does Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 belong to?
The single letter printed beside the card number groups a card with everything issued under the same rules. Tournament formats are cut along those letters, so the size of a letter is the size of the pool a card sits in.
8,194 cards in the archive carry a regulation mark. Older prints carry none at all, so this is not the whole archive.
The regulation mark is the single letter recorded with each modern card. Older prints carry no mark at all, so this axis covers only the part of the archive that has one.

Galarian Sirfetch'd 79 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, Leek Strike, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
- That works out at 23 damage for every Energy card attached.
- Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.
- It cannot start the game in play — Galarian Farfetch'd has to be on the field first.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Psychic attack printed at 65 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 130 HP.
- 548 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 2,740 cards in one attack.
