Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Heracross from the Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Set. Heracross is a Basic, Grass type Pokemon card with a HP of 110. Heracross has a x2 weakness to Fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two Colorless Energy card retreat cost. Guts is the name of Heracross' Ability, it says that if this Pokemon is going to be knocked out from damage, flip a coin, if you get a heads, this Pokemon is not knocked out, and its remaining HP is 10. Besides the Ability, this card has just one move called Pitch, for two Grass Energy cards, this move does 50 damage, plus, your opponent must switch their Active Pokemon with one of their Benched Pokemon.
Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Heracross is a Basic Pokemon card with no evolution forms, you'll only have to use this card in a deck if you want to use Heracross. So knowing this, if you're building a mainly Grass type deck and a deck that can take advantage of spreading damage around, this Heracross may be one to include in your deck. For example, you could use Pitch several turns, get 50 damage on several of your opponent's Pokemon, then use Espeon EX from the BREAKpoint set and devolve all of your opponent's Pokemon, potentially knocking out several Pokemon at once. Although the Ability on this card can't really be used to help your other Pokemon or help set up your deck, it may save you the game if you flip a heads when you're about to be knocked out. So essentially, if you need a solid attacker for a Grass type deck, a Basic Pokemon that can spread damage around and one that has a high HP, this is card for your deck.
Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is an above average Basic Pokemon card from the Burning Shadows set. Like I mentioned above, this card can certainly work in Grass type decks. I really like the high HP on this card and the fact it can do 50 damage for two Energy cards, plus, spread damage around by moving your opponent's Active Pokemon in and out. This card would be much better if you could choose which Pokemon your opponent put in the Active Pokemon spot, but even without that, it can certainly be a nice way to set up your opponent's Pokemon to be knocked out all at once later in the game.
