Clefairy´s Metronome

[guilleg33]

Clefairy's metronome says : "copys any atack except for it`s energy costs"


I dont understand.... i have a charizard as rival and i make 100 damage for :colorless: :colorless: :colorless: with any energy discard? i have many years thinking about how this atack works.

When linking to cards, please use our gallery http://pokegym.net/gallery/index.php

When using Metronome to copy Fire Spin, no :fire: Energy has to be Discarded in order to use the attack since Metronome gets to ignore any "in order to use this attack" costs. "Except for it's Energy costs" refers to what Energy have to be attached to Clefairy in order to use the attack (in this case 4 :fire can be ignored.

I will refer you to the Original Compendium for many Metronome rulings: http://compendium.pokegym.net/compendium.html#pattacks

Well, it's good, but not broken.
I used to play it back in the day.
Zoroark from B&W is a recent card that is very similar.

mmmm, maybe not broken compared with today´s standards cards but, for people like me who plays only old sets, its completely broken...

Hitmonchan with a PlusPower or two takes it out easily enough.

Energy Removal and Super Energy Removal make it difficult to ever get three Energy attached to Clefairy in a timely fashion.

i see....

i made a deck making a mix of wiggy-dmg swap (colorless/psy) and i prefer wiggly instead clefary... 60 dmg with :colorless::colorless::colorless:, every turn without any discard cost and 80 hp, wich is good enough. I play chansey, alakazam and wiggly. Defender. and some classical trainers. i Think is better than clefairy.
