What does Garchomp 70 do in a game?

Garchomp 70 is a Fighting Pokémon card with 130 HP, printed as Stage 2.

Its strongest attack, Bite Off, is printed at 80 damage for 2 Energy — 40 damage per Energy card.

Because of the Grass weakness, any Grass attack printed at 65 damage or more removes it in a single turn.

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.

  • Turbo Assault 1 Energy60 damage for 1 Energy — 60 per Energy card60
  • Bite Off 2 Energy80 damage for 2 Energy — 40 per Energy card80

Bars are printed damage against this card's own highest attack (80).

Why one of these damage figures carries a symbol

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

  • Bite Off is printed as 80+, 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 Garchomp 70 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 Garchomp 70 efficient for the Energy it asks for?

What does being a Fighting card do for Garchomp 70?

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 Garchomp 70 in one hit, and what does it knock out?

Of the 534 cards in the archive that can remove Garchomp 70 in a single attack, this one clears the bar by the smallest margin — 70 printed damage against a bar of 65.

What has to be in play before Garchomp 70 can be?

Garchomp evolves from Gabite, so the whole line has to be built before this card reaches the field.

Bars are the highest HP ever printed on that stage, measured against the top of this line (160 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.

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

41 prints carry this name in the archive, and 35 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.

Garchomp 70 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, Bite Off, needs 2 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 2 turns from an empty card.
  • That works out at 40 damage for every Energy card attached.
  • Moving it out of the active spot costs no Energy at all.
  • It cannot start the game in play — Gabite has to be on the field first.

Stage 2 cardsNo. 1,100 of 1,749

What actually removes it

  • A Grass attack printed at 65 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 130 HP.
  • 534 cards in the archive clear that bar.
  • Going the other way, it removes 2,889 cards in one attack.

Garchomp 70 — frequently asked questions

How much damage does it take to knock out Garchomp 70?

Garchomp 70 has 130 HP and a Grass weakness at ×2, so a Grass attack printed at 65 damage or more removes it in one turn. Any other type has to print the full 130.

What is the strongest attack on Garchomp 70?

Bite Off, printed at 80 damage for 2 Energy — 40 damage per Energy card. If your opponent's Active Pokémon is a Pokémon-EX, this attack does 80 more damage.

What is the retreat cost of Garchomp 70?

None. Garchomp 70 carries a printed retreat cost of zero, so it can move out of the active spot without discarding any Energy. The once-a-turn limit on retreating still applies.

What does the + after the damage on Bite Off 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 your opponent's Active Pokémon is a Pokémon-EX, this attack does 80 more damage."

Can an older Garchomp print be played in a tournament?

Legality is read from the print, not from the Pokémon. Of the 35 prints listed on this page, 13 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.

What does Garchomp evolve from?

Gabite. It cannot be played straight from your hand onto an empty spot — the earlier stage has to be in play first.

Can Garchomp 70 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 Garchomp 70 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.
