Mareanie -- Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Review

Mareanie Guardians Rising Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Mareanie from the Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Set.  Mareanie is a Basic, Water type Pokemon card with a HP of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to Grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Mareanie does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move on this card is called Bail Out, for one Colorless Energy card this move allows you to move a Pokemon from your discard pile back into your hand.  Mareanie's second move is called Rain Splash, for one Water Energy card this move does 10 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Mareanie is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Toxapex GX, which I'll be reviewing in a few weeks since it is a Psychic type Pokemon, 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 certainly be used as a starter type Pokemon in a deck since it has two moves that both only require one Energy card to use.  Bail Out is a very helpful move that can make it seem like you have more than 4 of a certain Pokemon in your deck.  Rain Splash is a pretty standard move for a card like this, doing 10 damage for one Energy card.  Although this card isn't spectacular, it can be used in a deck on its own.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Toxapex GX, this is an average Basic Pokemon card overall.  This card is pretty much average throughout, with an average HP, low retreat cost, and two moves, both quick on the attack, but both doing little.  Although this card is average overall, I would recommend looking elsewhere when building a Water type deck.
