Aerodactyl -- Fates Collide Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Aerodactyl from the Fates Collide Pokemon Card Set.  Aerodactyl is a Restored (essentially Stage 1), colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 120, it has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to fighting type Pokemon, and a free retreat cost.  Aerodactyl does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Bite, for one colorless energy card this move does 30 damage.  Aerodactyl's second move is called Jet Draft and for two colorless energy cards this move does 120 damage, plus it allows you to discard a Special Energy card attached to your opponent's Active Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Aerodactyl is a restored Pokemon, you'll have to include at least 1 Old Amber Aerodactyl trainer card for each Aerdoactyl you include in your deck.  The only way to get Aerodactyl into play is to use that trainer card and move an Aerodactyl from the bottom of your deck to your bench.  Even though it is a little difficult to get Aerodactyl into play, I would highly recommend using this card in a deck, probably just a 1-1 line, but for essentially one Double Colorless energy card this card can do 120 damage a turn.  So you can't beat that power wise, add in a free retreat cost and a solid HP, and this card is one to turn to when deck building.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, even rating this card compared to Stage 1 Pokemon, this is a very good Pokemon card from the Fates Collide set.  Other than the hiccup it takes to get this card into play, there are no negatives on this card, it has two moves, both moves being above average, this card can be used in any type deck, it has a high HP, and a free retreat cost, so definitely consider using this card in your deck.

Aerodactyl -- Dark Explorers Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Aerodactyl from the Dark Explorers Pokemon Card Set.  This is a restored (basically a stage 1), fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90.  It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Aerodactyl's Ability is called Ancient Scream which makes all your Pokemon's attacks do 10 more damage to your opponent's active Pokemon.  Besides the Ability, Aerodactyl has one move called Wing Attack which does 40 damage for three colorless energy cards.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this is a Pokemon with an Ability that you'll definitely want to utilize so keeping Aerodactyl on the bench throughout the entire game is a must, no matter your deck type.  Other than using its Ability, Wing Attack isn't a great move but it does only require colorless energy cards making Aerodactyl a very versatile card.  But I would definitely use this card only for its Ability, therefore I would only keep one of these in my deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  Disappointingly I have to give this card a low rating, I like that this card allows all your Pokemon to do 10 more damage when the attack but other than that this card really has no use, Wing Attack is too weak, and having to have an Old Amber card in your deck which can't do anything might make this card unwanted in many decks out there, but if you need two more cards in your deck I would definitely give this card a look just for its Ability.
