Card of the day:Jumpluff(HeartGold & Soul Silver Set)


Hello everyone and sorry for not doing the card of the day review for the last week, but I went to a hotel and they didn't have a computer, but now that i'm back let's get started. This is a stage 2 pokemon card so 90 hp is pretty good, but I have seen stage 1 pokemon with more hp. Okay this card doesn't have much hp so a x2 weakness to fire can knock it down easily and fire s used a lot in the pokemon game. A -20 resistance to fighting is really bad since fighting isn't used that much and i wish it could be something better like water or something because water is used just a little more often. One great thing about this card is that it doesn't have a retreat cost so that kind of makes up for the weakness and resistance. His first attack is called Mass attack and it works for 1 energy, 1 grass energy, and it does 10x damage because it says that it does 10 damage times the number of Pokemon in play(both your and your opponent's). His second attack is called Leaf Guard and it does 30 damage for 1 grass energy. Leaf Gurad also says during your opponent's next turn, any damage done to Jumpluff by attacks is reduced by 30( after applying Weakness and Resistance). So what I would do is put this card on the field and keep using Leaf Guard which could sometimes help when your fighting fire type Pokemon because if the defending pokemon has already used that attack it's reduced by 30 which isn't that great, but it will help a bit. Later on when there's a bunch of pokemon in the game I would use Mass Attack which could end up doing a lot of damage and then if that weakness to fire gets to dangerous you can retreat Jumpluff very easily. Anyways stay tuned for tomorrow's card of the day.Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Darkrai promo(Premium Box set)


Hello today's card of the day is Darkrai promo from the Premium Box. I know this card is not from an actual pack, but my friend wanted me to this card. Now this card has 80 hp so it's pretty bad cause I expected more from a Basic legendary pokemon. Now this card has a +20 weakness to fighting which is a little odd nad it's actually not that bad because fighting isn't used much. This card has a -20 resistance to psichic which is not that good because psichic isn't used much and it's not such a strong type, but with 80 hp only i'll take anything. Now this card has a 1 colorless energy retreat cost is really good because it's easy to retreat th card. Now since this is one of those pokemon with items it can do something special, this item is called Enigma Berry and this item says that if Darkrai is damaged by an attack from your opponent's fighting Pokemon, remove 4 damage counters at the end end of that turn so that makes up for his weakness. Now his first attack is called Spacial Rend and it does 10 for 1 water energy and it says that you search your deck for a Stadium card, show it to your opponen, and put it in into your hand and you have to shuffle your deck afterward and if there are any stadium cards in play you have to discard it. And now his second attack is called Roar of Time and it does 80 damage for 3 metal energy, and you have to search your discard pile for 3 Pokemon, show them to your opponenet, and put them on top of your deck, shuffle your deck afterwars(if you don't have 3 Pokemon in your discard pile this attack does nothing. So this card is pretty good. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Ludicolo (Secret Wonders)


Hello today's card of the day is Ludicolo holo from the Secret Wonders set. This is a stage 2 card so 100 hp is kinda good. Now a +30 weakness to electricity is good and bad, it's good since electric pokemon aren't commonly used, but bad because since it doesn't have much hp it can be knocked out easily. And to top it off it has no resistance which makes not having much hp problem worse. Now a 2 colorless energy retreat cost isn't that bad because if that no resitance, and no weakness problem gets bad you can retreat it easily, and it's also good because some stage 1 cards normally have 3 colorless energy retreat cost so this is pretty good. This card also has a Poke-Body called Rain Dish and it lest you at any time between turns, remove 1 damage counter from Ludicolo so that can help you with his low hp and weakness. And his attack is called Nature Power and it does 60+ damage for 3 enegy's, 1 colorless, 2 water. Now this attcak says that if you have a stadium card in play, this attack does 60 damage plus 20 more damage. And then it also says that if your opponent has a Stadium card in play, the defending pokemon is now confused. So you can end up doing 80 damage for 3 energy's. So stay tuned for tomorrow's card of the day Skuntank holo from the Diamond and Pearl set. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Salamence (Secret Wonders)


Hello today´s card of the day is Salamence from the Secret Wonders set. This card is a stage 2 pokemon so 140 hp is pretty good. Now a +30 weakness to colorless so that's not that bad since it's not commonly used. Now he also has a -20 resistance to fighting. Now a 3 colorless energy retreat cost is pretty pricey so i would use this card until it faints, but that doesn't matter if you have switch trainers in your deck. Now his first attack is called Direct Hit and it does 50 damage for 2 colorless energy, now it says that this attack's damage isn't affected by weakness, resistance, Poke-powers, poke-bodies or any other effects on the defending Pokemon. Dragon Finish works for 4 energy's, 2 fire, 2 water, which is pretty pricey, but it says that you have to discard 2 basic fire energy cards or 2 water energy cards attached to Salamence, if the card you dicsarded 2 basic fire energy cards this attack does 100 damage to the defending pokemon, if you discarded 2 basic water energy cards this attack does 100 damage to one of your opponent's benched pokemon. So this card is pretty good, and stay tuned for tomorrow card of the day which is ludicolo from the Secret Wonders Set.

Card of the day:Politoed(Legends Awakened)


Hello today's card of the day is Politoed holo from the Legends Awakened set. This is a stage 2 card so 120 hp is pretty good I guess. Now a +30 weakness to grass is pretty good since grass isn't that strong, and it's +30 which is better than x2 or x1 weakness. Now a no resistance can be a little harmful. Good thing about this card has a 1 colorless energy retreat cost so you can easly retreat it if it runs into trouble. His poke-body, Enthusiasm, says that if you have Poliwag, Poliwhirl, and Poliwrath in play, each of these pokemon's attacks do 60 more damage to the defending pokemon. Frog Hop works for only 1 water energy and 1 colorless, and it does 40+ damage because, you get to flip a coin, now if heads this attack does 40 damage plus 40 more damage so this card is really nice. Now stay tuned for tomorrow's card of the day on Slamance from the Secret Wonders Set. Peace out and bye.

Card o the day:Koga's Ditto(Gym Challenge)


Hello everyone sorry for not posting any card of the day yesterday, but i'll do 2 today. Today's card of the day is Koga's Ditto from the Gym Challenge set. This is a really old card from a really old set. Okay this card is a basic pokemon card so 40 hp is kinda bad because one attack can knock ditto out. Now a weakness to fighting can be bad, but fighting isn't used much and it isn't that strong. A -30 resistance to psychic is pretty good, but psychic isn't used much, but you can't argue for a -30. A one colorless energy retreat cost is expected since this is a basic card. Now his first attack is Giant Growth and it says that you gat to flip a coin, if heads Koga's Ditto maximum HP is now 80 and Koga's Ditto Pound attack's base damage is 30 instead of 10 and it does all this for 1 colorless energy. Okay now his second attack is Pound and it does 10 damage unless you use giant growth and then it does 30 damage for only one colorless energy. Peace out and bye. Stay tuned tomorrow for Registeel star from the legend maker set.

Card of the day:Palkia(Majestic Dawn)


Hello today's card of the day is Palkia with a Lustrous Orb from the Majestic Dawn Set. This card has 100 hp which is a lot for a basic pokemon card since most lv x cards have 100 hp too. A +20 weakness to electricity isn't that bad since electric type isn't used much in the pokemon game and Palkia has 100 hp so that weakness shouldn't be that bad. Now no resistance could be a little bad. Now a 3 colorless energy retreat cost can be bad so i would use this card until it faints or only retreat it once. His first attack is called Zone Shift and it works for 1 water energy and it says that your opponent switches the defending pokemon with one of his or her benched pokemon, so this card can do an awesome thing for 1 energy. Now his second attack is Pearl Blast does 60 damage for 4 energy, 2 water and 2 colorless so this attack is a little pricey, but what it says it that you may return an energy card attached to Palkia to your hand, and if you do, choose an energy card attached to the Defending pokemon and return it to your oppnent's hand. So this card is really good. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Bastiodon Gl(Rising Rivals)


Hello today's card of the day review is on Bastiodon Gl from the Rising Rivals Set. This is a basic pokemon card so 90 hp is pretty good. A x2 weakness can really be harmful because fire is used a lot in the pokemon game and it's a really strong type since it usually it has attacks that do 100 or 50 damage, and Bastiodon doesn't have a lot of hp to start with. Then a -20 resistance to psychic isn't that good since psychic isn't used that much and it's not a very strong type. Then a 3 colorless energy retreat cost is really pricey so if i played this card i would battle with it until it faints. Now his first attack is called Bounce Back and it does 30 damage for 3 energy's, 1 metal and 2 colorless, so I wouldn't use this attack unless i'm battling a strong pokemon because this card says that your opponent switches the defending pokemon with of his or her benched pokemon so I would keep my energy's for his other attack unless you want to switch the defending pokemon. Now Smack Attack does 60 damage, but it works for 4 energy's, 1 metal, 3 colorless, but along with that attack it lets you remove 1 damage counter from Bastiodon. So even thought it doesn't have that many hp you can remove those damage counters just as easy. So this card is better for defense than for battling. So peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Rampardos Gl(Rising Rivals Set)


Hello everyone today's card of the day is Rampardos Gl from the Rising Rivals Set. 90 hp is pretty good for a basic pokemon card. This card has a x2 weakness to grass which is good and bad since grass is stronger on hp than attack, but still x2 weakness is pretty bad and i hope it was +20 instead. This card has no resistance which makes it even worse, but luckily it has a 1 colorless energy retreat cost which is pretty cool because if that weakness to grass causes problems since it only has 90 hp you can retreat it easily. His first attack Trample works for 2 energy, 1 fighting and 1 colorless and it let's you flip a coin for each benched pokemon(sadly both yours and your opponent) because if that flip coin is heads, this attack does 30 damage to that pokemon , but atleast you don't have to count Weakness and resistance for benched pokemon. Then Rend does 40+ damage and it works for 3 energy's,1 fighting, 2 colorless, and it says that if the defending pokemon has any damage counters on it this attack does 40 damage plus 20 more damage. So this card like all cards has his upsies and his downsies. Stay tuned for tommorow's card of the day Bastiodong Gl. So peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Roserade Gl(Rising Rivals)


Hello today's card of the day is Roserade Gl from the Rising Rivals set. To start off this card is a basic Pokemon, so 80 hp is pretty good for a basic pokemon. A x2 weakness can be really harmful since it only has 80 hp. It also doesn't have any resistance which makes it worse, but luckily it has a 1 colorless energy retreat cost so it's gonna be easy to retreat if that weaness to fire does to too much damage. This card's first attack is called Poison Bind and it does 10 damage for one colorless energy. Also along with that 10 damage it says that the defending pokemon is now poisoned and can't retreat during your opponent's next turn. Long Whip let's you do 30 damage for 2 energy's, one grass and one colorless. Now Long Whip also says that if the Defending Pokemon is affected by any special conditions you may do 30 damage to any 1 bencheed pokemon instead, but sadly you can't count weakness and resistance to benched pokemon. Now what i would do is use Poison Bind to poison the other pokemon and then use Long Whip to do 30 damage to a benched pokemon your'e more interested in knocking out so stay tuned for tomorrow card of the day review on Rampardos Gl. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Magmortar Lv. X(Mysterious Treasures Set)


Hello today's card of the day is Magmortar Lv.X from the Mysterious Treasures Set. This card is a stage 3 card and it has a 130 hp which is pretty good, but i expected more from a stage 3 card. This card has a x2 weakness to water which can be really harmful since water is commonly used pokemon game. One thing about this card is that it has no resistance which can be bad since it already has a x2 weakness to water. This card has a 3 colorless energy retreat cost which is pretty bad. Then Magmortar's poke-power is called Torrid Wave, and what it does is that once during your turn before you attack if magmortar is your active pokemon you may choose 1 of the defending pokemon and that pokemon is now burned, then you get to put 3 damage counters instead of 2 on that pokemon between turns, this power can't be used if Magmortar is affected by a Special Condition. Now his second attack is called Flame Bluster and it works for 4 fire energy so it's pretty pricey, but what it says is you have to discard 2 fire energy attached to Magmortar, you choose one of your opponent's Pokemon and this attack does 100 damage to that pokemon, but you can't apply weakness and resistance to benched pokemon and that during your next turn Magmortar can't use flame bluster. So this card is pretty good. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day: Metagross star( EX Delta Species set)


Hello and sorry I didn't do a card of the day review yesterday, but i was doing homework till 1 in the morning. Anyways today's card of the day is Metagross star from the ex delta species set. To start off this card is a basic pokemon and it has 90 hp which is actually pretty good for a basic card. This card has a weakness to fire which can be really harmful since it only has 90 hp, but i'm glad that it's not a x2 or plus 10 or plus 20. Then it has a -30 resistance to grass which makes up for the health points and that it has only 90 hp and it is also really good because grass type is commonly used. This card has a 3 colorless energy retreat cost which is pretty pricey so i would make sure i have a bunch of energy's before playing this card. Then this card's first attack is called Critical Collection and it does 10 damage for one metal energy, and it says that you count the number of prize cards your opponent has taken, and then you get to search your discard pile for up to that many metal energy cards and attach them to metagross star. His second attack is Hyper Beam and it works for 5 energy's which is really pricey and it only does do 50 damage, but it says that you get to flip a coin and if heads discard and energy card attached to the defending pokemon. So this card is half good, half bad. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Typhlosion Prime(Heart Gold & Soul Silver Set)


Hello today's card of the day is Typhlosion Prime from the heartgold and soulsilver set. This card has 140 hp which is really good for a stage 2 pokemon. This card to start of has a x2 weakness to water which is bad, but expected. Another thing about this card is that it doesn't have a resistance which is really bad since it has a x2 weakness to water. One good thing about this card is that it has a 2 colorless energy retreat cost which is good since a lot of other cards have a 3 colorless energy retreat cost. To start of this card's poke-power is called AfterBurner which let's you search your discard pile for 1 fire energy and put it on a pokemon, but you got to put a damage counter on that pokemon and this power can't be used if typhlosion is affected by a special condition. His second attack is called Flare Destroy and it does 70 damage to the pokemon for 3 energy, 2 fire and one colorless.

Card of the day:Blaziken ex(Ex Crystal Guardians)


Hello today's card of the day review is on blaziken ex from the ex crystal guardians set. To start of this card has a 130 hp which is pretty good for a stage 2 card. This card has a weakness to psychic which isn't that bad since psychic pokemon aren't used much and it's not thata strong type. One bad thing about this card is that it has no resistance, but atleast it's not x2 or +30 weakness to psychic. One really good thing about this card is that it has only a 2 energy retreat cost which is good for an ex card. His first attack is called Drag Off and it does 30 damage for 2 energy, one fighting energy and one colorless. Then it says that before doing damage your opponent has to choose 1 benched pokemon and switch with one of the defending pokemon( your opponent chooses the defending pokemon). His second attack is Burn away is good, but it is pretty pricey since it's worth 4 energy, one fire, one fighting, and 2 colorless. This attack does 100 damage and it says that before doing damage, you get to count the remaining HP of the defending pokemon, and if that pokemon is knocked out by this attack blaziken ex does damage to itself equal to this attacks damage minus the remaining Hp of the defending pokemon, and this attack's damage isn't affected by weakness, resistance, poke-powers, poke-bodies or any other effects on that pokemon. So this card is really good. Peace out and bye.

Card of the day:Crobat Prime (HS Unleashed)

Hello and sorry about not posting a card of the day yesterday, but i was really busy. Today's card of the day is Crobat Prime from the unleashed set, i know this set hasn't come out yet, but i just wanted to make something a little new. This card is a stage 2 card and it has 130 hp which is pretty good, but I expected more from a stage 2 card. This card has a x2 wekness to electricity which can be really bad because this card only has 130 hp so for that i wish it was +20 not x2. Also this card has a -20 resistance to fighting which i guess is pretty good, but fighting isn't used much. One thing I do live about this card is that it has no retreat cost which kinda makes up for the x2 weakness to electricity because if crobat gets hurt by electricity you can easily retreat it. His first attack is called Severe Poison and it works for one phychic energy. What it says is that the defending pokemon is now poisoned, and you put 4 damage counters instead of 1 on that pokemon between turns. His second attack is called skill dive and it works for one phsychich energy and it says that you get to choose one of your opponent's pokemon and this attack does 30 damage to that pokemon, but don't count weakness and resistance for benched pokemon. So hoped you liked the review and look at the picture to see crobat prime. Peace out and bye. Sorry i want able to gat the picture if i find it i shall post it.
