Vanillite -- Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Vanillite from the Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Set.  Vanillite is a basic, water type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Vanillite does not have an Ability, and it only has one move.  The only move it has is called Snow Squall, this move requires one colorless energy card and does 10 damage.  This move cannot be affected by a Pokemon's resistance.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Vanillite is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Vanillish and a stage 2 evolution in Vanilluxe, which I'll be reviewing the next two days, you'll more than likely want to use those cards with this Pokemon.  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, Vanillite is a very average basic Pokemon card.  Because this card does have average hp and one quick move, it may make for a good starter Pokemon in your deck, so if you're looking for one more card to include in your water type (or any type deck since this card requires a colorless energy card to attack) Vanillite might be the one you choose.  You'll want to get Vanillite into the active Pokemon spot early so you can use Snow Squall every turn while setting up your benched Pokemon.  Without Vanillite's evolutions this card isn't very good since it can't do more than 10 damage a turn, but it is decent nevertheless for a basic Pokemon card.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average basic Pokemon card.  I like that this card has an average hp, low retreat cost, and one quick, colorless type move.  However, this card is average and it won't be able to do much in your deck without its evolutions, so if you aren't looking for a filler card in your deck, I wouldn't use this card on its own.
