You won’t find too many Basic Pokémon as scorching as Heatran (3/99). Not only does it have a hefty 100 HP to match its 948-pound weight, but this Fire-type Pokémon has two awesome ways to cook the Defending Pokémon. Heatran can first bring the heat with Fire Fang, an attack that causes the Special Condition Burn in addition to the 20 damage it does. Then Heatran can follow up with Magma Mantle, a blistering attack that requires you to discard three cards from the top of your deck. It does 60 damage, then an additional 20 damage for each discarded card that is either a Fire Energy or Metal Energy card. Especially in decks containing a lot of Energy, do not pass on including the fiery Heatran!
