Zorua -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Zorua from the X and Y Pokemon Card Set.  Zorua is a basic, darkness type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to psychic type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Zorua does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Scratch.  For one darkness energy card this move does 10 damage.  Zorua's second move is called Nasty Plot and says that for two energy cards, one each of darkness and colorless, you can search your deck for a card and put it into your hand.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Zorua is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Zoroark, which I'll be reviewing tomorrow, 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.  So, on its own I would not recommend using Zorua in a deck.  I say this because Zorua has a below average hp and only one decent move.  This card is not that bad but I wouldn't use it.  If you choose to use this card in your deck, of course you'll want to use Scratch most turns unless you need a specific card from your deck, then you would use Nasty Plot.  But especially if you're using this card without Zoroark, I wouldn't put two energy cards on this card in case it gets knocked out.

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 from the X and Y set.  This card has a low hp, and one of the two moves it has isn't the greatest (Nasty Plot) but overall it could be used in a deck if you really need one more card to use.
