Seel -- Fates Collide Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Seel from the Fates Collide Pokemon Card Set.  Seel is a basic, water type Pokemon card with an hp of 80.  It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Seel does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Icy Snow that does 10 damage for one water energy card.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Seel is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Dewgong, 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, this card could easily be used as a starter type Pokemon since it has a high HP and a quick move, requiring only one energy card.  I would probably hold off on using this card unless you're using it with Dewgong, otherwise you're going to have to use a Switch trainer or attach an additional energy card to Seel to retreat it.  So if you're building a water type deck, this card can work, but the biggest issue is Seel's retreat cost.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Dewgong, this is an average Basic Pokemon card.  Outside of having a higher retreat cost, this card is pretty solid overall and would make for a good starter in a water type deck.  It has a well above average HP, and an average, quick move, that will start doing damage immediately.
