Trubbish #63/135 -- Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Trubbish from the Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Set.  This is the first of three consecutive Trubbish cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  Trubbish is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Trubbish does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move this card has is called Pile Up, this move requires one psychic energy card and allows you to flip a coin, if you get a heads you may search your deck for a Tool card and put it into your hand.  Trubbish's second move is called Sludge Toss, this move requires two colorless energy cards and does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Trubbish is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Garbodor, which I'll be reviewing in three days, you'll more than likely want to use this card with that Pokemon.  However, since I haven't reviewed that card yet, there are actually two Garbodor cards in this set, and I have not reviewed the other two Trubbish cards from this set, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolution or knowing anything about the other Trubbish cards from this set.  So on its own, this Trubbish card would be a very average basic Pokemon card to use in your deck.  If I were to use this card on its own, I would put this card in any deck regardless of the type because the main move I would use from this card would be Sludge Toss which requires colorless energy cards.  Because this card has a lower hp, I would try and get Trubbish into the active Pokemon spot to start the game and then use Sludge Toss every turn, of course using Pile Up first while only having one energy card attached to Trubbish, just make sure to have Pokemon Tool cards in your deck.  I wouldn't use this card in a deck on its own, but if you choose to I wouldn't use more than 1 in a deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average basic Pokemon card.  This card is extremely average, average hp, average retreat cost, and two average moves.  This card won't hurt a deck by having it in it, but it won't improve it very much either, so like I mentioned in the review section of this post, I wouldn't use it in a deck, we'll have to see if the other two Trubbish cards in this set are better than this one.
