Gyarados VMAX
Oracle Text
Attack Hyper Beam (120): Discard an Energy from your opponent's Active Pokémon.
Attack Max Tyrant (240)
Card Details
Character Background
Gyarados VMAX from Evolving Skies fits a straightforward tempo-to-pressure game plan: punish the opponent with huge, immediate damage while subtly disrupting their Energy setup. Max Tyrant’s 240 damage is the headline, cleanly threatening most Pokémon V and forcing awkward trades, while Hyper Beam adds a control edge by stripping an Energy from the Active Pokémon, often slowing a key attacker just long enough to seize the lead. This card shines in Water-based decks that can accelerate Energy reliably, especially with support that helps it attack sooner and maintain momentum after a swing turn. Pair it with cards that recycle or move Water Energy so you can keep powering up successive attackers, and consider switch effects or pivot Pokémon to offset Gyarados VMAX’s large Retreat Cost. Thematically, it captures Gyarados’s reputation as an overwhelming force: once it commits to battle, the opponent is pressured to answer immediately or get drowned in tempo.
