Attack Rear Kick (40)
Card Details
Character Background
Heliolisk from XY Black Star Promos is a nimble Stage 1 Lightning attacker that leans into tempo and soft control rather than brute-force damage. Dry Skin gives it a built-in edge against Water decks by shaving 30 damage off attacks from Water Pokémon, which can buy an extra turn or force awkward math after Weakness and Resistance are applied. That defensive utility pairs nicely with Hyper Beam, a modest 60-damage attack that can randomly strip an Energy from the opposing Active Pokémon on heads, creating pressure on slower setups and keeping your opponent off curve. In deckbuilding, Heliolisk works best alongside Lightning Energy acceleration and switch effects, since its value comes from staying active, trading efficiently, and disrupting attachments while you keep attacking. It also fits well in a spread of single-prize support Pokémon that aim to win by denying tempo rather than racing pure damage.
