Oracle Text

Card Details
Character Background
Hop’s Zacian ex is a straightforward attacker that leans hardest into aggressive tempo, rewarding decks that want to pressure the Active Spot while splashing damage onto the Bench. Insta-Strike is excellent for softening up evolving support Pokémon, breaking up setup decks, and setting up clean prizes without overcommitting resources, while Brave Slash hits a huge 240, enough to threaten most ex-level targets in one swing. The self-lock on Brave Slash means you should plan a pivot after the big hit, so pairing Zacian with switching cards and healing can keep the pressure flowing. In deckbuilding, it fits well beside energy acceleration and Metal support that can keep attackers online quickly, and it especially appreciates effects that help recycle or reposition after a knockout. The Hop branding gives it a light, companion-like flavor, but on the table this is no mascot: it’s a disciplined finisher for Metal decks that want to race, trade efficiently, and punish fragile boards.
