Stufful -- Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Review

Stufful Guardians Rising Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Stufful from the Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Set.  Stufful is a Basic, Colorless type Pokemon card with a HP of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to Fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Stufful does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move on this card is called Tackle, for one Colorless Energy card, this move does 10 damage.  Stufful's second move is called Hammer In, for three Colorless Energy cards, this move does 60 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Stufful is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Bewear, 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, there is really no reason to use this card in a deck, yes, the card can work into any type deck since it requires all Colorless Energy when attacking, but other than doing 10 damage for one Energy card, this card is way too slow on the attack, has a high retreat cost, and has a low HP for as many Energy cards as it requires to attack.  Ideally, you would use this card with Bewear, possibly start the game with Stufful in the Active Pokemon spot, and evolve it the second turn of the game.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Bewear, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card from the Guardians Rising set.  Like I mentioned above, because this card's Hammer In move requires three Energy to attack and only does average damage, this card essentially does 10 damage for one Energy card and has a two Colorless Energy card retreat cost, meaning, you'll have to attach extra Energy just to retreat this card.  So certainly look elsewhere for Basic Pokemon for your deck.
