Litwick -- Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Litwick from the Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Set.  Litwick is a basic, fire type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Litwick does not have an Ability, and it only has one move.  The only move it has is called Suprise Attack, this move requires one colorless energy card, the move does 20 damage if you get a heads when you flip a coin, otherwise this move does nothing.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Litwick is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Lampent (which I'll be reivewing tomorrow) and a stage 2 evolution in Chandelure (there is not a Chandelure card in this set, there will be one in Plasma Freeze), you'll more than likely want to use those Pokemon with this card.  However, since I haven't reviewed those cards yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolutions.  So on its own, Litwick isn't a very good card to use.  This card does have an average hp and can do 20 damage, but a 50/50 chance of doing nothing would deter me away from using this card in a deck.  However, if you choose to use this card in a deck, you'll want to use this card as a starter type card so you can get it in the active Pokemon spot immediately and do 20 damage a turn instead of most basic Pokemon cards that are used as starters only doing 10 damage per turn.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very poor basic Pokemon card and a basic Pokemon card that should not be used on its own in a deck.  I do not like that Litwick's only move doesn't hit every time guaranteed.  Other than its move being sub par, this card has average everything else.
