Xerneas EX Full Art -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Xerneas EX and Xerneas EX Full Art from the X and Y Pokemon Card Set.  Xerneas EX is a basic, EX, fairy type Pokemon card with an hp of 170. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Xerneas does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Break Through, this move requires three energy cards, two colorless and one fairy, and does 60 damage, plus it does 30 damage to one of your opponent's benched Pokemon.  Xerneas's second move is called X Blast, this move requires four energy cards, two each of fairy and colorless, and does 140 damage, however you can't use this move two turns in a row.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, because Xerneas EX is a basic Pokemon card you won't need to use any other cards with this card.  But remember, because this card is an EX card, if this card is knocked out, two prize cards are taken instead of one.  So knowing this,and looking at how many energy cards this card takes to attack, I would definitely use this EX card in a fairy type deck, but I wouldn't use more than one of these.  I would set up Xerneas on the bench, put four energy cards on it then move it to the active Pokemon spot to use X Blast the first turn and Break Through the turn after that.  That way you can knock out most Pokemon in one turn with X Blast and the next turn spread damage with Break Through which will eventually make it that much easier to knock out defending Pokemon when you can do 140 damage with X Blast on a Pokemon that has at least 30 prior damage.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an above average EX Pokemon card from the X and Y set.  I really like both of Xerneas's moves, both can do major damage, but both moves take a bit to set up and X Blast can't be used every turn.  This is definitely an EX card you want to use in your Fairy type deck, and it also should be a card that collector's like me want to add to their collection.
