Bidoof 117/160 -- Primal Clash Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Bidoof from the Primal Clash Pokemon Card Set.  This is the second of the two Bidoof cards that I've reviewed from this set.  Bidoof is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. This Bidoof card does have an Ancient Trait called Recovery that says when Bidoof is healed, double the amount healed.  Besides the Ancient Trait, Bidoof just has one move called Drench, this move requires two colorless energy cards to use, and does 20 plus 20 more damage if Bidoof has any water energy attached to it.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Bidoof is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Bibarel, 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 but I will be comparing both Bidoof cards in this post.  So taking a look at this specific Bidoof card, you could use this card as a starter type Pokemon in a deck if you're building a water type deck, that way you can do 40 damage a turn for only two energy cards.  If you're not using Bidoof in a water type deck, neither Bidoof card from this set is that great of an option, I would much rather keep Bidoof on the bench and evolve it into Bibarel there.  If you are building a water type deck, I would use up to two of these cards.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Bibarel, this is an average Basic Pokemon card from the Primal Clash set.  This card is the better of the two Bidoof cards in this set, but not by much.  I would avoid both Bidoof cards if possible but if you're building a water type deck, this is a good card to use since it can do 40 damage a turn for only two energy cards.
