Pokemon Card of the Day: Kabutops (Majestic Dawn)

Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Kabutops from the Majestic Dawn set, this is a stage 2, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 120. It has a +30 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a 2 colorless energy card retreat cost. Kabutops' Poke-Body is called Primal Shell and says that as long as Kabutops is your active Pokemon, your opponent can't play any trainer cards. Kabutops' only move is called Chop Up and for 3 energy cards, 1 colorless and 2 fighting, it does 70 damage plus 10 damage to each of your opponent's benched Pokemon that has any damage counters on it. So as far as strategy goes you would want to make sure you could keep Kabutops in the active Pokemon spot as long as possible so your opponent couldn't use any trainers at all and you should be able to do that quite easily by using Chop Up every turn, I would also recommend having another Pokemon in your deck that does 10 damage to every benched Pokemon, that way when you move Kabutops into the active Pokemon position it can do 70 damage to the active Pokemon and 50 more damage to the five Pokemon on your opponent's bench. I would give this card a 5 out of 5, I really like this card, I like how it does way more than the standard 60 damage for 3 energy cards and I also really like its Poke-Body and with decks that rely on stage 1 and stage 2 Pokemon cards, they will really be hurting if they aren't able to use trainer cards to search their deck for those cards. So thanks for reading today's review of Kabutops from the Majestic Dawn set, stay tuned for tomorrow's review of Leafeon from the same set.
