CARDEX BACKGROUND

About this Pokémon form

The energy amplified by Mega Evolution concentrates in Garchomp's arms, turning them into enormous blades. It uses them to strike blows capable of splitting the ground and defeating opponents. Its muscles also swell: in Pokémon X and Y, its Attack and Special Attack increase greatly at the cost of reduced Speed.

Background on this form in the video games; this card’s attacks, edition and finish remain distinct.

A detail worth noticing

In Pokémon X and Y, Dragon Claw directly benefits from Mega Garchomp's increased Attack. Because the move shares its Dragon type, it also receives the same-type attack bonus. The transformation strengthens an attack it could already use before Mega Evolving.
