Cocoon of Evolution — Power Evaluation
Final Score: 32 ± 6 · Confidence: Medium
- Intrinsic: 31.7 · Deck: 31.8 · Meta: provisional
- Primary role: Utility
Why it scores here
The card's only effect is to equip itself from hand to a Petit Moth you control and copy its original ATK/DEF onto that monster. Its own printed 0/2000 body is a defensive wall, but it does nothing without a Petit Moth on the field, and the DEF 2000 does not earn points by itself. The score comes from being a cheap, non-garnet card that sits in three archetypes with Petit Moth as the most common partner, not from any observed conversion, since no combos were supplied.
Axis scores
| Axis | Score | Evidence |
|---|---|---|
| Accessibility | 30 | Live only from hand and only while a Petit Moth is already on the field, with no searcher in the evidence (inference from text; decks show Petit Moth as partner in 2 of 3 decks). |
| Combo & Conversion | 25 | Text converts one Petit Moth into a 0/2000 body, with no combo boards recorded (inference from text; no combos_evidence). |
| Resource Economy | 40 | A one-for-one body swap with no draw, search, or refuel, which reads as roughly even (inference from text). |
| Effect & Interaction | 5 | No negation, removal, or disruption in its text (verified from card text). |
| Material Utility | 25 | Level 3 EARTH Insect is a generic body, but no material usage was observed and its effect is Petit Moth-bound (inference). |
| Resilience & Flexibility | 20 | Its single target is a specific Petit Moth, so there is no redundancy and one removal of that target ends the line (inference from text). |
| Deck-Building Efficiency | 55 | Appears in 3 decks at an average of 2 copies with no garnet or lock recorded (observed from decks_evidence; garnet status is inference). |
Calculation
Weight profile: Utility / no clear role (default) profile; no secondary role blended. Intrinsic ≈ 31.7, Deck ≈ 31.8, Meta = provisional. Modifiers: none. Final formula: 0.40*Intrinsic + 0.60*Deck
Strengths
- Equips from hand, so it is never dead in hand while a Petit Moth is out (inference from text)
- Turns Petit Moth into a 0/2000 defensive body (verified from card text and printed stats)
- Appears in 3 decks across 3 archetypes with Petit Moth as the most common partner (observed)
Weaknesses
- Needs a Petit Moth already on the field, with no searcher or other route in the evidence (inference)
- No combo, starter, or material usage recorded (observed as absent)
- Adds no interaction, card advantage, or pressure to the opponent (verified from card text)
Counters / choke points
- Removing or negating the target Petit Moth before the equip resolves (inference from text)
Best use
Petit Moth support; defensive 0/2000 body from hand. Decks: Petit Moth-based Insect builds (sample: Hole plus two unnamed-archetype decks). Suggested copies: 2.
Evidence & gaps
- Verified: Card text: targets one Petit Moth you control and equips from hand to it; While equipped, the Petit Moth's original ATK/DEF becomes this card's (0 / 2000); Printed ATK 0, DEF 2000, Level 3 EARTH Insect; Legal in TCG, OCG, MasterDuel, DuelLinks
- Observed: 3 recent decks run it, average 2 copies, max 3; Petit Moth is a co-deck partner in 2 of 3 decks; Zero combo boards recorded
- Inferred: Live only when a Petit Moth is already on the field; Value depends on Petit Moth's printed stats, which are not in the evidence; Low resilience: one target controls the whole line
- Data gaps: no combos supplied, so combo conversion is text-only inference no guides supplied no banlist token, assumed 3 copies (unlimited) no usage statistics (StatisticsCard), so archetype inclusion % is unavailable no top-card context Petit Moth's printed ATK/DEF not in evidence no rulings on equip timing or on the original-stat copy
