Oracle Text

Card Details
Character Background
Dark Golbat from Team Rocket Returns fits neatly into a tempo-and-control shell, where its job is to pick off vulnerable targets rather than race for brute-force damage. Night Ambush deals 30 damage to any one of your opponent’s Pokémon, and because bench damage ignores Weakness and Resistance, it is especially useful for softening up setup pieces, sniping support Pokémon, or finishing off something that has already been chipped. The tradeoff is clear: it can’t attack on your next turn, so you want to treat it as a hit-and-fade tool, not a sustained attacker. It pairs well with decks that can evolve quickly, recycle switch effects, or reposition attackers, since you may want Dark Golbat active only when its target is exposed. In play, this makes it a strong disruptor in slower games, especially when backed by poison, spread damage, or other effects that pressure the bench and force awkward prize tradeoffs.
