#260 Garchomp ex - Paradox Rift (sv4)

Garchomp ex is a Water-type Pokémon with 320 HP, featuring a unique combination of abilities and attacks. It belongs to the Scarlet & Violet series, released as part of the Paradox Rift set on November 3, 2023, and is classified as a Hyper Rare card with a regulation mark of G. The card is illustrated by 5ban Graphics and carries the number 260 in its set. Its Tera rule allows it to prevent all damage done to Bench Pokémon while on the Bench, providing defensive advantages. The card includes two attacks: Hydro Lander, which costs a single Fighting Energy to attach up to three Basic Fighting Energy cards from the discard pile to Benched Pokémon, and Sonic Dive, which discards two Colorless Energy cards to deal 120 damage to an opponent's Pokémon. The latter also bypasses Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon. Garchomp ex has a Lightning weakness that multiplies damage by two, making it vulnerable to certain attacks. The card’s design emphasizes strategic energy manipulation and tactical positioning during gameplay.
