What are the most powerful Pokemon attacks?

Fire storm, by blaine's arcanine, for 120 damage. Actualy its Lugia EX's Elemental storm that hits 200. Actually the shadow lugia promo card from Pokemon xd has an attack of 1000 if u don't believe me check on eBay or lugia who attacks 120 with an energy card on it it is 250! However, Kyogre & Groudon Legend has Massive Eruption which deals 100 damage times the number of energy cards discarded after discarding the top 5 cards of your deck. Which means it could do up to 500 damage to the opponent's active Pokemon. It's Mega Tidal Wave works the same way but your opponent discards his/her top 5 cards and does 30 damage times the number of energy cards discarded to each your opponent's benched Pokemon. So that could be up to 150 damage X 5 Pokemon= 750 damage!!

What does retreat mean on Pokemon playing cards?

The retreat in the Pokemon Trading Card game means to use an Energy or two attached to the active Pokemon card to switch out with one of the benched Pokemon. It's a lot like switching in the real Pokemon games, but you would need to have energy attached to the Pokemon in order to retreat like noted before.

What does the brown circle next to magby's attack mean?

If you're talking about the card game, sounds like the '0' cost symbol. Some attacks are free and do not require any energy, the Pokemon can use them even if no energy is attached. These are represented by a shadowy circle rather than a Pokemon energy symbol.


Is clefairy any good?

no, not in many games except for the Pokemon trading card games so for the "Pokemon card" clefairy clefairy has 40 HP and is banned in japan reason was because clefairy has two attacks called sing: flip a coin. if heads, the defending Pokemon is now asleep. Metroname: choose an attack of the defending Pokemon and use it with the use of its requirements to use the attack, for example, if one attack is a 4 fire energy attack, then clefairy does not need 4 fire energy to use the attack instead clefairy only needs to have enough energy to use metronome i believe clefairy is a good pick because it can be used as a good trump card against powerful Pokemon i have it in my fire deck, and putting enemys to sleep and then next turn using metronme, is pretty worth having

Is the Kamehameha wave stronger than Final Flash?

Well, it all depends on how much energy is put into the attack...it's not like these attacks are like Frieza's death beam or Piccolo's special beam cannon, those attacks will actually kill an opponent if they strike, unlike kamehameha and final flash where they are just energy attacks. But remember, I just mean if all of these attacks were shot at the same level...if enough energy is put into ANY attack it will destroy ANY opponent...so which one is stronger...well it depends which fighter is stronger...but if you want to get fun with this, SSJ4 Goku's kamehameha vs SSJ4 Vegeta's Final Flash/Shine attack...looks pretty even to me...

How do you play Pokemon tcg?

You first start of by drawing 6 cards and the players who's turn it is draws a card. play a basic Pokemon and the rest are benched and the bench can only hold 5 Pokemon, if one of your benched Pokemon dies you can replace it. your basic Pokemon can attack but you may need energy to use it so supply it with energy cards, attatch one energy on one Pokemon per turn. if it has a normal type color than it means any type. now you must retreat the Pokemon before you attack if it is injured or harm, but only if u want to you can now evovle Pokemon and when this happens all effects on them are done and the original basic Pokemon is dead. when a Pokemon dies it is by the hp, and the attack has a nuber written next to it (not all) that is how much dmg is given to the hp. and when the hp reaches 0 it dies.

How do you become a werewolf in mechquest?

Go to the Police Department in Soluna City and rank up until you get to rank 31 (You need to complete the notebook to rank up above 29). You can then buy the werewolf mechs. They are fast and have good attacks for a low level. They can steal energy and health with their arm attacks, can regen health and lower and boost attack for their enemies and themselves. No body attack. A good mecha who will get you a long way. Weapons: The arms can steal health and energy The shoulders can double shot The head lowers enemy attack and boosts yours I personally think that it's better then the Mecharoni and the House mechas, as it has more health (or in the case of the Mecharoni), more attack. Star Captains can access a special DoT attack that also heals yourself. Good regen Average health Average energy Average price
