Taillow -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Taillow Pokemon X and Y Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Taillow from the X and Y Pokemon Card Set.  Taillow is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to fighting type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Taillow does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move this card has is called Aerial Ace, for two colorless energy cards this move does 10 damage plus if you get a heads it does 30 more damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Taillow is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Swellow, 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 because this card is quite limited by one move, I wouldn't recommend using it in a deck.  But if you want to use this card in your deck, definitely don't use more than one because the card is a little slower to attack and has a low hp.  Try to get this card into the active Pokemon spot to start the game, and use Aerial Ace every turn, this move is actually pretty good if you're lucky and get a heads.

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.  Despite having a decent move, if you flip a heads, this card gets a below average rating from me because the card has a low hp, and the only move it does have requires two energy cards to attack instead of just needing one.  So there are definitely better basic Pokemon cards out there that you can use in your deck, but this card is definitely not the worst one out there.

Tomorrow's Pokemon Card:
So thanks for reading today's Pokemon card review of Taillow from the X and Y set, stay tuned for tomorrow's card review of Taillow's stage 1 evolution Swellow, which is from this same set.  Make sure to check below for the Free Pokemon TCG Online Codes!
