Card Details
Set
Character Background
Dark Raticate from Team Rocket is a simple, ruthless Stage 1 that fits best into an early-game aggro or tempo plan, where every turn is about forcing awkward trades and keeping pressure on the opponent. With 20 damage from Gnaw and a coin-flip Hyper Fang that can jump to 50, it offers efficient offense for a Colorless attacker, especially in decks that want flexible splashability rather than strict Energy requirements. The Team Rocket flavor suits its role perfectly: a scrappy, dirty fighter that looks to pounce before sturdier Pokémon can stabilize. In deckbuilding, pair it with cards that smooth out coin flips or reward repeated small attacks, and consider strong Energy acceleration or switching support so you can keep attacking without losing momentum. It is not a reliable finisher, but as a cheap midgame threat in an aggressive shell, it can steal turns and punish slower setups.
