Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Torchic from the Primal Clash set. This is the second of two consecutive reviews I've done on Torchic. This Torchic is a basic, fire type Pokemon card with an hp of 50. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. This Torchic card has an Ancient Trait called Barrage that says Torchic may attack twice a turn if the first move that Torchic uses knocks out the defending Pokemon. So besides the Ancient Trait, Torchic does have two moves. The first move that this card has is called Flare Bonus, this move requires one fire energy card to use and says to discard a fire energy card from your hand and draw 2 cards from your deck. Torchic's second move is called Claw, this move requires one fire energy card and does 20 damage, however, if you get a tails when flipping a coin, this move does absolutely nothing.
Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Torchic is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Combusken and a stage 2 evolution in Blaziken, 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 but I will compare the two Torchic cards at the end of this section. So on its own, I would highly recommend not using this card in a deck. Even though it can potentially attack twice a turn, this card has a great chance of not being able to do damage at all, since the first move that it has doesn't do any damage and the second one is based on a coin flip. So again, I would not recommend using this card at all, if you want to use Torchic in your deck or plan on using Combusken and Blaziken, use yesterday's Torchic card with it.
Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is a very poor Basic Pokemon card especially considering it has an Ancient Trait on it. So I was very disappointed after looking at this card, I am just not a fan of moves that are based entirely on coin flips, and add in this card has below average HP for a Basic Pokemon card, and I just can't find a reason to want to use this card in a deck.
