Every attack printed on the card, with the Energy it asks for.

Retreating costs a further 1 Energy, discarded from this card, and that cost is paid on top of anything in the table.

Glistening Droplets2 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.

This card places damage counters, which is not the same as dealing damage

Glistening Droplets puts damage counters on a Pokémon instead of dealing damage to it. The two look alike on the board — one counter is ten damage — but the rules treat them apart: anything that reduces or prevents damage does not stop counters from being placed, and weakness and resistance are not applied to them either.

What Oricorio SWSH168 does without attacking

Oricorio SWSH168 carries 1 printed effect that work outside the attack step, so it can matter on a turn the card never attacks.

Lesson in Zeal — Ability
All of your Fusion Strike Pokémon take 20 less damage from attacks from your opponent's Pokémon (after applying Weakness and Resistance). You can't apply more than 1 Lesson in Zeal Ability at a time.
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.

Back to summary

Is Oricorio SWSH168 strong for a Fusion Strike card?

Fusion 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.

Hit points90 HPtypical for the group is 146 HP — this card is 38% below
Top printed damage0 damagetypical for the group is 96 damage — this card is 100% below

The group is every Fusion Strike card in the archive — 53 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.

What knocks out Oricorio SWSH168 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Oricorio SWSH168 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Oricorio SWSH168?

Oricorio SWSH168 has 90 HP and a Water weakness at ×2, so a Water attack printed at 45 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 90.

What is the retreat cost of Oricorio SWSH168?

1 Energy, discarded from this card to move it out of the active spot. Retreating is allowed once per turn.

Does Oricorio SWSH168 deal damage or place damage counters?

It places damage counters. One counter is ten damage on the board, but the two are different things in the rules: weakness and resistance are not applied to counters, and effects that reduce or prevent damage do not stop counters from being placed.

Can an older Oricorio print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 22 prints listed on this page, 8 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 Oricorio SWSH168 be played in a tournament?

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

Does this page say how good Oricorio SWSH168 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.
