What this card does

Mewtwo-GX deals damage equal to 30 multiplied by the number of Energy cards attached to it.

It can heal itself for 30 damage using its Super Absorption attack.

Its Psystrike-GX attack deals 200 damage and ignores any protective effects on the opponent's Pokemon.

Signature attack

Psystrike-GX

This attack's damage isn't affected by any effects on your opponent's Active Pokémon. (You can't use more than 1 GX attack in a game.) (200 damage)

The key feature is Full Burst, which scales its damage based on how many Energy cards you have attached. This means the more resources you invest in it, the harder it hits. Psystrike-GX offers a reliable way to deal massive damage that cannot be blocked by opponent abilities.

Note for the parent

Remind your child that they can only use the GX attack once per game, so they should save it for a critical moment.
