They’re both really strong cards, too. Let’s take a look. Ampharos EX is pretty good. The first attack, Thunder Rod, doesn’t do any damage, but lets you look at the top 4 cards of your deck and attach any Lightning Energy you see there onto Ampharos EX. If you happen to just find 2, that’s well worth it, as the second attack costs 2 Lightning Energy and 2 colorless. Sparkling Tail deals 100, but it ignores Weakness, Resistance, or any other effects on the Defending Pokemon. Considering that this hits so hard quickly, if I were still playing the TCG, this would be one of my main heavy-hitters. ![]() It only gets better with Mega Ampharos EX. The upgrade from 170 HP to 220 HP is nice, but it’s the attack that is really cool. Exavolt has the same cost as Sparkling Tail, but it deals 120 base damage. Exavolt also gives you the option to deal 50 more damage and Paralyze your opponent, but Ampharos deals 30 damage to itself. This seems a fair trade-off, though, as that’s going to be enough to knock out a lot of EX Pokemon. This is an absolute powerhouse. While I don’t play the Pokemon TCG anymore, I’d consider having these cards around in my collection. If you do play the game, I’d highly recommend finding some way to make these work. They seem too powerful not to play. If you like our work, please consider a tip to support our family’s journey. No amount is too small. We appreciate you and we do this for you!
