    EPIC. This card is so amazing!
    Let’s see, Sawk here is a 90HP Basic, so that makes him quick to get out and hard to knawk out.
    He has two attacks. Both are easily pawered up using Fighting Energy (sadly, not Double Rainbow).
    Starting T2 you can totally tank aw over the competition doing 40 damage a turn! Just imagine how many Pokemon you could KO in only a few turns!
    Combine this card with Max Potion, Energy Switch, and Shaymin UL for an awtimate victory!

      seems pretty ambitious when there is so many better cards.

    BCIF? Naw. Fantastic card that can fit into any deck running fighting? Absolutely. Sawk is a great way to kill off some Tynamos for a prize or two, well worth the space in a lot of things.

    Simple but surprisingly good card that pairs well with Tornadus EX for early aggression. He is perhaps the best counter to Zekeels as he OHKO’s tynamos from turn one. his obvious weakness is low HP and specific energy requirements (fighting energy). This requirement prevents him from being a splashable tech, as he is really useful early on, but it’s hard to hit those 2-4 fighting energy turn one or even turn 2. If you can ever get 2 energy on this guy, you’re just a few pluspowers away from serious, weakness hitting damage.
    The facts that he hits from turn 1, hurts zekeels a lot, but needs a bit of energy dedication to ever get an attack going are what make him such a great partner to Tornadus EX/Tornadus. Without them I doubt this card would ever see play aside from budget decks.

    I like how what is essentially a Base set Hitmonchan is now only rated 4.95/10.

      Just goes to show you that an efficient punch is better than a special one.

    T1 KO tynamos.
    T2 KO smeargles.
    Pluspower KOs eelektriks.

    This guy is severely underrated. Incredibly useful in Troll like you wouldn’t believe.
