Game plan
- Hit its Weakness. Slurpuff is weak to Metal, so those attacks do double damage. 74 Standard cards can Knock it Out in one hit that way — the fastest needs just 0 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 Slurp Slurp for 90× (2 Energy). 951 Standard cards have enough HP to survive one hit — before any Weakness, + or × effects.
- Watch the Retreat Cost. It costs 2 Energy to retreat. If it gets stuck in the Active Spot, that's your chance.
