Forretress ex
Oracle Text
Ability Exploding Energy: Once during your turn, you may search your deck for up to 5 Basic {G} Energy cards and attach them to your Pokémon in any way you like. Then, shuffle your deck. If you searched your deck in this way, this Pokémon is Knocked Out.
Attack Guard Press (120): During your opponent's next turn, this Pokémon takes 30 less damage from attacks (after applying Weakness and Resistance).
Card Details
Character Background
Forretress ex in Paldea Evolved is a classic all-in combo engine wrapped in a defensive shell: Exploding Energy turns one Stage 1 into a burst accelerator that can dump up to five basic Grass Energy across your board at once, often setting up a huge attacker in a single turn before Forretress ex is intentionally sacrificed. That makes it best in combo and tempo decks that want to convert a small board presence into a sudden midgame spike, rather than in slow control lists. The strongest builds pair it with attackers that scale from Energy already in play, or with effects that benefit from being fully loaded immediately, while Recovery options like Super Rod help recycle both Forretress ex and discarded Energy after the self-KO. Guard Press is mostly a fallback, but 120 damage plus damage reduction can buy a turn if you need a sturdier pivot.
