Attack (TCG)/Damage

Most attacks deal damage. The amount of damage an attack deals is written to the right of the attack name as a large black number, conventionally divisible by 10. If a Pokémon uses an attack that deals damage, put a damage counter on the opponent's (the ) for each 10 damage the attack does.

Various symbols next to the number indicate whether the damage will vary. These symbols are for distinguishing purposes; the stipulations of the damage variation are defined in the attack text.

If no number is present, then the attack does not deal damage; it most likely has another effect, listed in its attack text.
