How to beat Crawdaunt

Q: How much HP does Crawdaunt have?

Up to 130 HP in Standard (130 on the Mega Evolution version, 130 on the Twilight Masquerade version).

Crawdaunt has 2 versions in the 2026–27 Standard format, with up to 130 HP as a Darkness Pokémon. Here's the maths for Knocking it Out — worked out from every Standard-legal card.

HP: 130

Weakness: Grass, Lightning

Resistance: None

Prizes: 1

One-hit KOs: 370

Fastest KO: 1 Energy

Game plan

Hit its Weakness. Crawdaunt is weak to Grass and Lightning, so those attacks do double damage. 113 Standard cards can Knock it Out in one hit that way — the fastest needs just 1 Energy.
Don't over-invest. It only gives up 1 Prize card, so avoid spending a big two-Prize attacker on it if a cheaper Pokémon can do the job.
Plan for its big hit. Its strongest printed attack is Rampaging Hammer for 180 (3 Energy). 191 Standard cards have enough HP to survive one hit — before any Weakness, + or × effects.
Watch the Retreat Cost. It costs 3 Energy to retreat. If it gets stuck in the Active Spot, that's your chance.
