Rulings

• For the "Intimidating Fang" Ability:
  • The Ability reduces damage done to both the player's Active and Benched Pokémon, as it does not specify which Pokémon on the player's side gets affected.
  • If the opponent's Active Pokémon uses an attack whose damage isn't affected by any effects on the Defending Pokémon (eg. Shred, or using the Supporter card Phoebe on a Pokémon VMAX), the damage done is still reduced by Intimidating Fang, as the Ability's effect applies for the Attacking Pokémon and not the Defending Pokémon.

Trivia

Origin

This card features the male form of Pyroar. Intimidating Fang is an Ability that first appeared as a Poké-BODY on Mightyena from EX Ruby & Sapphire. Searing Flame is an attack that first appeared on Charmander from the Expedition Base Set. This card's Pokédex entry comes from Pokémon Violet.
