Moltres-EX is a Fire-type Pokémon with 170 HP, featuring a retreat cost of one Colorless energy. It belongs to the Black & White series, released as part of the Plasma Storm set in February 2013. The card is classified as a Rare Holo EX and is illustrated by Eske Yoshinob. Moltres-EX has a resistance to Fighting-type attacks, reducing damage by 20, but is weak to Water-type attacks, which deal double damage. Its two attacks include Destructive Flame, which costs Fire and Colorless energy to deal 30 damage and has a 50% chance to discard an Energy from the defending Pokémon, and Power Flame, requiring Fire, Fire, Colorless, and Colorless energy to deal 80+ damage with an additional 40 if Plasma Energy is attached. The card also includes a rule stating that when a Pokémon-EX is Knocked Out, the opponent loses two Prize cards. Its unique mechanics and high power level make it a notable card in competitive play.
