Though undoubtedly strong, this card is probably a bit too slow to be main-deckable in Modern: three mana for the sword, two more to actually equip it, and then you have to get through to deal combat damage as well
Mistys card is a staple in Water decks and a must-have for any player aiming to unleash powerful Water-type attacks
First of all, this card costs X less to play, where X is the greatest power among creatures you control, meaning itll never cost eight mana
The dual-type mechanic means Volcanion-EX can hit more Pokemon for Weakness (Pokemon weak to Fire or Water) and it can also be affected by cards that target Water or Fire-type Pokemon (like Blacksmith, Splash Energy, Burning Energy, Aurorus, etc.) This is not the first time the TCG has featured dual-type Pokemon
This makes it incredibly powerful, despite it being susceptible to disenchant effects
