Trubbish #65/135 -- 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 third of three consecutive Trubbish cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  Trubbish is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Trubbish does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Tool Drop that requires two energy cards, one each of pyschic and colorless, and does 20 damage times the number of Pokemon Tool cards attached to all the Pokemon in play.  So this is the most different Trubbish card of the three from the Plasma Storm set, this one has a higher hp, only one move, and a higher retreat cost.

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 the next two days since they're two Garbodor cards in this set, you'll more than likely want to use this card with that Pokemon.  However, since I haven't reviewed that card yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolution, however I have reviewed the two other Trubbish cards from this set so I'll try and compare them in the rest of this post.  So on its own, this Trubbish card would be the weakest of the three Trubbish cards from this set.  I would not recommend using this card on its own because it depends on having Pokemon Tool cards in play.  So if you want to use this specific card in your deck, you're going to have to include the first Trubbish card I reviewed from this set, #63/135, and use that card first and use Pile Up a couple of turns getting Pokemon Tool cards attached to your Pokemon, once you've done that, you can then move this Trubbish card into play and use Tool Drop.  So if you want to use this strategy you'll have to include plenty of Tool cards in your deck as well as at least 1 of each Trubbish card I mentioned above.  However, in my opinion if I were to use a Trubbish card I would opt for the middle Trubbish card I reviewed, #64/135, this card doesn't depend on other Pokemon and can do damage with both of its moves.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a below average basic Pokemon card.  This is the lowest rated of the three Trubbish card from this set.  Even though this card has the highest hp, I am giving it the lowest rating because on its own this card cannot do any damage, even if you include the Trubbish card you need in this set, you still need to have plenty of Pokemon Tool cards in your deck and then attach them to your benched Pokemon.
