Deoxys V SWSH266 is a Psychic Pokémon card with 210 HP, printed as Basic V.

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.

  • Psychic 2 Energy30 damage for 2 Energy — 15 per Energy card30
  • Power Edge 3 Energy140 damage for 3 Energy — 47 per Energy card140

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (140).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

  • Psychic is printed as 30+, 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 Deoxys V SWSH266 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 Deoxys V SWSH266 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 140 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.

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 140 is read as high or low rather than merely large.

Back to summary

Is Deoxys V SWSH266 strong for a V card?

V 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 V card in the archive — 601 of them. Each figure is compared with what that group typically prints, not with the archive as a whole.

What does being a Psychic card do for Deoxys V SWSH266?

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.

What knocks out Deoxys V SWSH266 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Weakness doubles the damage a Darkness attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 105 printed damage rather than 210.

Why this card was picked to stand opposite

Of the 279 cards in the archive that can remove Deoxys V SWSH266 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.

Deoxys Vweak to Darkness ×2
Deoxys Vresists Fighting -30

Read from the two boxes in the lower-left corner of the card — weakness multiplies incoming damage, resistance subtracts from it.

What the Fighting resistance changes

Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack printed high enough to knock this card out on paper may not do it. Resistance is a flat subtraction, not a multiplier — it does not scale with the attack.

What is Deoxys as a Pokémon, across every card it has been printed on?

Deoxys V SWSH266 is one print of Deoxys. 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.

What has to be in play before Deoxys V SWSH266 can be?

Deoxys V evolves from an earlier stage, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.

The Deoxys line, oldest stage firstPokédex #386
  • 1DeoxysDeoxysHardest attack printed at this stage: 120 damage130 HP

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (210 HP). The note beside each bar is the hardest attack printed at that stage.

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.

Back to summary

Is this the strongest Deoxys print, and can the older ones still be played?

52 prints carry this name in the archive, and 39 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.

Rows run from the toughest print down. Bars are printed HP, measured against the toughest print of this name shown here (330 HP), and the highlighted row is the card this page is about.

Deoxys V SWSH266 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, Power Edge, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 turns from an empty card.
  • That works out at 47 damage for every Energy card attached.
  • Moving it out of the active spot costs 2 more Energy, discarded from the card itself.

Where its HP stands, cut four ways

Every card in the archiveNo. 1,503 of 17,290
Psychic cardsNo. 171 of 2,334
V cardsNo. 214 of 601
SWSH Black Star PromosNo. 88 of 292

What actually removes it

  • A Darkness attack printed at 105 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 210 HP.
  • 280 cards in the archive clear that bar.
  • Going the other way, it removes 1,799 cards in one attack.
  • Damage from Fighting attacks is reduced before it is applied, so an attack that clears the bar on paper may still fall short.

Deoxys V SWSH266 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Deoxys V SWSH266?

Deoxys V SWSH266 has 210 HP and a Darkness weakness at ×2, so a Darkness attack printed at 105 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 210.

What is the strongest attack on Deoxys V SWSH266?

Power Edge, printed at 140 damage for 3 Energy — 47 damage per Energy card.

What is the retreat cost of Deoxys V SWSH266?

2 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 Psychic 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 — "This attack does 30 more damage for each Energy attached to your opponent's Active Pokémon."

Can an older Deoxys print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 39 prints listed on this page, 9 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 Deoxys V SWSH266 be played in a tournament?

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

What does the rule on Deoxys V SWSH266 mean?

The card reads “V rule: When your Pokémon V is Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.” That sentence is printed on the card itself, so it applies wherever the card is played.

Does this page say how good Deoxys V SWSH266 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.
