Timburr -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Timburr from the X and Y Pokemon card set.  Timburr is a basic, fighting 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.  Timburr does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move this card has is called Pummel, for two energy cards, one each of fighting and colorless, this move does 20 damage, plus it does 20 more damage if you get a heads when you flip a coin.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Timburr is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Gurdurr and a stage 2 evolution in Conkeldurr, 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, this card could definitely be used in a fighting type deck.  Just on the face of it, Pummel is an average move, but if you add in the fact the move could do 40 damage a turn and that it has above average hp for a basic Pokemon card, this is definitely a card to consider using as a starter type Pokemon in your deck.  I would not use more than 2 of these in a deck without the other Pokemon in this family just because it does require two energy cards to attack and has a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  But if you get this card into the active Pokemon spot early, Pummel will be able to pummel some basic Pokemon in a turn of two for sure.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an above average basic Pokemon card from the X and Y set.  I like that this card has an above average hp, and the one move it does have good be an above average move if you get a heads when you flip a coin.  So overall, I would recommend using this card in your deck on its own, so if you need another card or two for your deck, make sure to check this Timburr card out.
