Weedle -- Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Weedle from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Set.  This card is actually the first card in the Plasma Freeze set, in the coming days and months I'll be reviewing every other Pokemon from this set.  Weedle is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Weedle does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Triple Stab, this move requires one grass energy card and does 10 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip three coins.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Weedle is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Kakuna and a stage 2 evolution in Beedrill, 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, I would not recommend using this card in your deck.  I say this because even though Weedle can potentially do 30 damage for only one energy card, I do not trust this move enough to consistently do enough damage to warrant keeping the card in my deck, plus with only 50 hp on this card, if this card has to be put in the active Pokemon spot late in the game, it won't last more than a turn.  So I do not recommend using this card in a deck on its own, you'll have to wait until tomorrow's review to see if I recommend using Kakuna with this card.  However, if you are forced to use this card in your deck, you'll obviously have no choice but to use Triple Stab every turn when Weedle is in the active Pokemon spot.

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.  I do like that this card can do up to 30 damage per turn and that its only move is pretty quick, but I don't like Weedle's below average hp, or the fact that its only move relies on coin flips.  So I'd recommend looking elsewhere for a basic, grass type Pokemon card to put in your deck.
