One of the weakest memePokemonis getting a major upgrade inPokemon TCG Pocket, according to a new leak from the Space-Time Showdown set.
One of the best things about the Pokemon Trading Card Game is how it’s disconnected from theestablished mechanicsof the mainline games. This means a sad creature like Magikarp or Feebas can have powerful cards, thanks to useful abilities or strong attacks.
Every Fox Pokemon, Ranked
Who wouldn’t want a Fox for a pet? This also goes for Pokemon. But these Pokemon aren’t just cute, they’ll burn you to cinders too!
There are few Pokemon as memeable as Bidoof, as the adorable little beaver was a breakout star of theGen 4 games. It’s only natural that it would make an appearance in Pokemon TCG Pocket’s Space-Time Showdown set, as it focuses on creatures fromPokemon Diamond & Pearl.
What fans weren’t expecting is forBidoof to be so strong. According to a leak on the PTCGP Reddit, Bidoof is packing a ridiculously good attack that’s going to shake up the entire meta.
Bidoof Is Pokemon TCG Pocket’s New Ex Killer
Bidoof’s card has the Super Fang attack, which requires two Energy of any type to use. It doesn’t deal any direct damage, but halves the current hit point total of the enemy’s Active Pokemon.
Super Fang won’t do much against regular Pokemon, but ex and Stage 2 should be running scared, as one of these hits will make them susceptible to a follow-up blow that instakills them. The mighty Gyarados ex, Celebi ex, Mewtwo ex, and Golem should all be afraid.
Pokemon Go Shadow Ho-Oh Is First Remote Shadow Raid
Pokemon Go’s Shadow Ho-Oh is the first time the game will let players use Remote Raid Passes for Shadow Raids.
The fact that Bidoof’s attack doesn’t involve any numbers means it’s alsogoing to ignore Items, Supporters, and the brand-new Tool cards, making it hard to resist.
Naturally, Bidoof isn’t unbeatable, as it only has 60 HP and is weak to Fighting-type moves, making it susceptible to Hitmonlee’s Bench bashing.
But the fact that Bidoof can pull off Super Fang using any Energy type means it’s going to be very splashable and will see play in a lot of decks. WhenTrading is finally compatiblewith Space-Time Showdown, this little beaver is going to be even more prominent in competitive.
