Articuno ex
Oracle Text
Attack Ice Wing (40)
Attack Blizzard (80): This attack also does 10 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokémon.
Card Details
Character Background
Articuno ex from the Nintendo Black Star Promos feels like a control-leaning support piece that rewards disciplined board setup rather than raw damage racing. Its Synchronized Lift Ability is the real hook: once Zapdos ex and Moltres ex are in play, Articuno ex retreats for free, making it much easier to pivot between attackers and preserve tempo. That flexibility pairs well with a value or disruption plan, especially since Ice Gift lets you move a Water Energy from Articuno ex to another Pokémon, smoothing energy distribution and enabling a surprise follow-up attacker. Freezing Wing is modest at 50, but the Sleep chance can buy critical turns in a control shell, especially when combined with effects that force awkward retreats or punish stalled Active Pokémon. In deckbuilding, prioritize ways to search and bench the other legendary birds quickly, and consider energy acceleration or switching tools so Articuno ex can keep flowing between support and pressure without wasting turns.
