Rotated OutA massive two-headed dragon that can remove an entire opposing Pokemon from play.
What this card does
The Linear Attack deals 40 damage to a single target without being affected by weakness or resistance on the bench.
The Calamitous Slash deals heavy damage that increases by 80 if the target is already hurt.
The GG End GX attack discards an opponent's Pokemon and its attached cards, potentially removing two if you have extra Fighting Energy.
Calamitous Slash
If your opponent’s Active Pokémon already has any damage counters on it, this attack does 80 more damage. (160+ damage)
This card allows your child to discard one of their opponent's Pokemon entirely from the game. If they attach three extra Fighting Energy cards, they can remove two opposing Pokemon at once.

Discard 1 of your opponent’s Pokémon and all cards attached to it. If this Pokémon has at least 3 extra Fighting Energy attached to it (in addition to this attack’s cost), discard 2 of your opponent’s Pokémon instead. (You can’t use more than 1 GX attack in a game.)
