Gyarados ex
A powerful Water type that disrupts the game by removing energy from both sides.
What this card does
It deals 140 damage using three Water and one Colorless energy.
It forces you to discard a random energy card from any Pokémon in play.
Rampaging Whirlpool
Discard a random Energy from among the Energy attached to all Pokémon (both yours and your opponent's). (140 damage)
The Rampaging Whirlpool attack is risky because it removes energy from your own Pokémon too. This can stop your Gyarados from attacking again or weaken your other cards while hurting the opponent.
