Keldeo
Oracle Text
Attack Slicing Blade (30)
Attack Hydro Pump (60): Does 10 more damage for each Water Energy attached to this Pokémon.
Card Details
Character Background
Keldeo, as a Basic Water Pokémon in the BW Black Star Promos set, plays like a nimble tempo threat that rewards planning ahead. Its Swords Dance attack is deceptively simple: it does no immediate damage, but it primes Aqua Blade to hit for 120 on the following turn, turning Keldeo into a two-turn pressure piece that can force awkward responses from the opponent. That makes it best in aggressive Water decks that want to keep momentum and punish slower setups. Because the payoff is delayed, protection and consistency matter; pairing Keldeo with Energy acceleration like Feraligatr or manual reattachment support helps ensure the Aqua Blade turn actually happens. It also benefits from switching effects, letting you reposition after using Swords Dance and keep attacking with other Water Pokémon while Keldeo waits for its boosted strike. The card’s appeal is in disciplined sequencing: set up, threaten, then cash in.
