Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Alolan Rattata from the Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Set. Alolan Rattata is a Basic, Darkness type Pokemon card with a HP of 40. It has a x2 weakness to Fighting type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to Psychic type Pokemon, and a one Colorless Energy card retreat cost. This card does not have an Ability but it does have two moves. The first move on this card is called Focus Energy, this makes it so Bite's attack's base damage is 60 instead of 20. This card's second move is called Bite, for one Darkness Energy card, this move does 10 damage.
Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Alolan Rattata is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Alolan Raticate, 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, you never really want to play a Pokemon with such a low HP in the Active Pokemon spot, not only is this card very easy to knock out, but if it is on your Bench, it is an easy knock out there as well. Even though I like that this card can do 35 damage per turn on average when using Focus Energy then Bite, the low HP makes this card unusable in battle, especially without Alolan Raticate.
Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating. So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Alolan Raticate, this is a well below average Basic Pokemon card from the Burning Shadows set. Like I mentioned above, this card does do major damage for only one Energy card, especially coming from a Basic Pokemon that can evolve, but nothing really matters when a card only has 40 HP, making it a very easy card to knock out for your opponent.
