Card Details
Set
Character Background
Gastrodon from Steam Siege is a classic control-oriented Stage 1 that wins by making the opponent’s turns awkward rather than by raw damage. Sticky Shot is the centerpiece: for just 20 damage, it taxes both the Defending Pokémon’s attacks and Retreat Cost by Colorless, which can buy crucial tempo against attackers that barely miss their Energy thresholds or rely on pivoting freely. Water Pulse then pushes the pressure further by putting the Active Pokémon to Sleep, forcing awkward flips or switch cards while you continue setting up. This card fits best in a tempo-control Water deck, especially alongside ways to keep the opponent trapped Active, such as gust effects and additional status pressure. Pair it with Energy acceleration or splashable attackers so Gastrodon can stay on the field without falling behind on board development. It is at its best when you use the tax effect to slow faster decks and create windows to take prizes safely.
