Marnie's Purrloin
Oracle Text
Attack Pointy Nails (20+): If your opponent's Active Pokémon is a Pokémon ex, this attack does 40 more damage.
Card Details
Character Background
Marnie’s Purrloin is a deceptively sharp Basic Darkness attacker that fits best into an aggressive tempo plan, especially in metas where Pokémon ex dominate the Active Spot. Pointy Nails starts as a modest 20 damage, but the built-in conditional jumps to 60 total against ex targets, which is enough to pressure early Evolutions, finish softened threats, or trade efficiently for a single Prize. As a Basic, it is easy to drop onto the Bench and promote quickly, making it ideal for decks that want immediate board presence without committing heavy Energy investment. The best synergy is with Darkness acceleration or disruption shells that keep switching pressure high; pairing it with cards that force awkward Active Pokémon can let you repeatedly punish ex-based decks. In deckbuilding, treat it as a flexible opener or tech attacker rather than a centerpiece, and include ways to recycle or search Basic Pokémon so its situational damage bonus comes online when it matters most.
