What do the attacks on M Sharpedo-EX XY200a cost, and what do they hit for?
The card prints 1 attack. The strongest asks for 3 Energy and returns 120 damage, which is 40 damage for every Energy card attached.
| Attack | Energy cost | Cards of Energy | Printed damage | Damage per Energy | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Torpedo Dive | 2 Darkness + 1 Colorless | 3 | 120 | 40 | This attack does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon for each Colorless in that Pokémon's Retreat Cost. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.) |
This card has no retreat cost at all, so it can leave the active spot without discarding any Energy — the only limit is that retreating happens once a turn.
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.
How does M Sharpedo-EX XY200a 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 M Sharpedo-EX XY200a efficient for the Energy it asks for?
Printed damage on its own says nothing — a 120 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 40.
| Group | Share | Value |

| 1 Energy | 49.0 | 49 damage typical |

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 120 is read as high or low rather than merely large.
Is M Sharpedo-EX XY200a strong for a MEGA card?
MEGA 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 MEGA card in the archive — 207 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 M Sharpedo-EX XY200a?
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.
| Group | Share | Value |
|---|---|---|
| Psychic | 13.5% | 2,335 cards |
| Water | 14.1% | 2,435 cards |
| Colorless | 12.6% | 2,173 cards |
| Fire | 9.1% | 1,574 cards |

| Darkness — this card | 7.2% | 1,249 cards |
| Dragon | 3.1% | 530 cards |
| Fairy | 1.4% | 237 cards |
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 Lightning.
What knocks out M Sharpedo-EX XY200a in one hit, and what does it knock out?
Weakness doubles the damage a Lightning attack deals to this card, so the bar it has to clear is 105 printed damage rather than 210.

M Sharpedo-EX XY200a210 HPWhy this card was picked to stand opposite
Of the 325 cards in the archive that can remove M Sharpedo-EX XY200a 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 Lightning ×2 weakness means any Lightning attack printed at 105 damage or more is enough. 326 cards in the archive clear that bar.

Which rules apply to M Sharpedo-EX XY200a, and where can it be played?
Two kinds of rule meet on one card — the sentence printed on the card face, and the rulebook clauses that apply because of what the card carries.
The rule printed on this card
“Mega Evolution rule: When 1 of your Pokémon becomes a Mega Evolution Pokémon, your turn ends. Pokémon-EX rule: When a Pokémon-EX has been Knocked Out, your opponent takes 2 Prize cards.”
Prize cards your opponent takes when it is knocked out
Every knockout carries the opponent 2 steps closer to winning, and that is the cost of putting this card on the field whatever it cost to buy.
| Clause | What the rulebook says | Cards it applies to | Share of the archive |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weakness | Some Pokemon have Weakness or Resistance to Pokemon of certain types, marked in the lower-left corner of the card. | 16,744 cards | 81.9% |
| Retreat | Retreat your Active Pokemon (only once per turn). | 17,244 cards | 84.3% |
| Energy per turn | You can attach Energy just once each turn! | 17,180 cards | 84.0% |
Counted across 20,444 English cards. A clause applies to this card because the card carries the property the clause names, not because we judged it to.

M Sharpedo-EX XY200a 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, Torpedo Dive, needs 3 Energy attached. Energy attaches once a turn, so that attack waits 3 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 — Sharpedo-EX has to be on the field first.
Where its HP stands, cut four ways
What actually removes it
- A Lightning attack printed at 105 damage removes it in a single turn — that is the bar, not its 210 HP.
- 326 cards in the archive clear that bar.
- Going the other way, it removes 858 cards in one attack.
