Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Hydreigon EX and Hydreigon EX Full Art from the Roaring Skies Pokemon Card Set. Hydreigon EX is a basic, EX, dragon type Pokemon card with an hp of 180. It has a x2 weakness to fairy type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Hydreigon's Ability is called Dragon Road and says that if there is a stadium card in play each retreat cost for your dragon type Pokemon is two energy cards less. Besides the Ability, Hydreigon just has one move. This move is called Shred, for three energy cards, one each of darkness, psychic, and colorless, this move does 80 damage.
Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, because Hydreigon 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 about Hydreigon EX, this card could be used for only its Ability by just keeping the card on the bench the whole time, or if you're using a split type deck of darkness and psychic type Pokemon you could use this card. I personally wouldn't use this card in a deck because it really isn't that much better than a non EX card and I don't want to give up two prize cards to my opponent if Hydreigon gets knocked out. So probably the only time I would use this card in a deck, and I would only use one, would be if I were building a darkness and psychic type deck, and the deck included a lot of stadium cards, that way you could utilize Hydreigon's Ability while it is on the bench and do a good amount of damage for three energy cards if you put it into the active Pokemon spot.
Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is an average, but not spectacular by any means, EX Pokemon card from the Roaring Skies set. The card has a solid HP, Ability, and one move, but for an EX card like this one, I was looking for a bit more, some more power or something, so I cannot highly recommend this card unless you're deck is pretty specific. So if you want to use an EX card in your deck, this card would be okay to use, but you'll be able to find better ones out there.

It also has one of the best sounding cries in the video games. Very fearsome.
