What this card does

Weavile ex has 140 hit points which makes it fragile in battle.

It uses the Scratching Nails attack to deal 30 damage normally.

If the opposing Pokemon already has damage on it, this attack deals an extra 40 damage for a total of 70.

Signature attack

Scratching Nails

If your opponent's Active Pokémon has damage on it, this attack does 40 more damage. (30 damage)

The key feature is the bonus damage added when the opponent's active Pokemon is already injured. This makes Weavile ex very dangerous in mid game battles where your opponent has taken some hits but not been knocked out yet.
