Psyduck #33/143 -- Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card Review

Psyduck Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Psyduck from the Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card Set.  This is the second of two consecutive Psyduck Pokemon cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  I reviewed the other Psyduck card from this set yesterday.  Psyduck is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost.  Psyduck does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  Its only move is called Firefighting which requires 1 water energy card and allows you to discard a fire energy card attached to the defending Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Psyduck is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Golduck, I would recommend keeping Psyduck on your bench and evolving it into Golduck before moving it into the active Pokemon spot.  I would definitely keep this card on the bench if I were using this version of Psyduck, neither Psyduck card from this set is worth putting into the starting Pokemon without immediately evolving it into Golduck. If you plan on using Golduck in a deck, I would definitely recommend finding a Psyduck card that isn't from the Boundaries Crossed set because both cards are terrible.  If you have to use this card in your deck and are forced to put it into the active Pokemon spot, your only option is to evolve Psyduck as soon as possible or use Firefighting every turn.  Again, do not use this card in a deck, especially not on its own.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very disappointing basic Pokemon card, in my opinion it is even more disappointing than yesterday's Psyduck card which I thought was terrible.  The only thing this card has going for it is that it has a high hp for a basic Pokemon.  Other than that this card has nothing, it has a terribly high retreat cost, one terrible move, that is rarely effective, and can never do damage, and just terrible overall.  Do not use this card.

PS I think you was a little hard on both psyduck cards. they may not do damage but could be useful when defending
