#197 Goodra - Fusion Strike (swsh8)
Goodra is a Dragon-type Pokémon with 160 HP, featuring a retreat cost of three Colorless Energy. Its attack, Buster Tail, requires one Water and one Psychic Energy to deal 120 damage. The card includes an ability called Slimy Room, which forces opponents to flip a coin when attempting to attach an Energy card from their hand to a Pokémon. If tails, the Energy card is discarded instead of being attached, and this action does not count against their Energy attachment limit for the turn. Goodra is part of the Sword & Shield series, specifically the Fusion Strike set, released on November 12, 2021. The card is numbered 197 and classified as Rare, with artwork by Nagomi Nijo. Its flavor text describes a form of offense involving forcefully stretching out its horns, delivering strikes that land 100 times harder than a heavyweight boxer’s punches. The card’s design and mechanics reflect its role in the game’s competitive meta.
