Bruxish -- Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Bruxish from the Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Set.  Bruxish is a Basic, Water type Pokemon card with a HP of 100.  Bruxish has a x2 weakness to Grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, 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 Gnash Teeth, for one Water Energy card, this move Confuses the defending Pokemon.  Synchronise is this card's second move, for three Energy cards, one Water and two Colorless, this move does 60 damage, plus the move also does 20 damage to each of your opponent's Benched Pokemon that shares a type with your opponent's Active Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Bruxish 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 Bruxish.  So knowing this, this card would be best used in a deck that attacks by spreading damage around, that way, if you are facing a deck with multiple of the same type Pokemon, you may knock out multiple Pokemon at once when using Synchronise.  Depending on the deck you're facing, this card may be completely useless or it could do major damage since there are plenty of decks out there with multiple different types and decks that are a majority of the same type Pokemon.  Essentially, this card can do 30 damage for one Energy and 60+ damage for two Energy, so it is quick to attack, you just need some additional things to happen for this card to be good.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average Basic Pokemon card from the Burning Shadows set.  Like I mentioned above, if you are building a spread attack type deck, this card certainly fits right in, other than that, this card isn't that useful, since 60 damage when using Synchronise isn't anything special, and there is a coin flip's chance that Gnash Teeth will do nothing at all.  But, as a Basic Pokemon, this card does have a high HP, and there is certainly merit to using one of this card in a deck.

Bruxish -- Sun and Moon Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Bruxish from the Sun and Moon Pokemon Card Set.  Bruxish is a Basic, Water type Pokemon card with a HP of 110.  Bruxish has a x2 weakness to Grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Bruxish does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Vivid Charge, for one Colorless Energy card this move allows you to search your deck for up to 3 Basic Energy cards and put them into your hand.  Bruxish's second move is called Psychic Fangs and for three Energy cards, two Water and one Colorless, this move does 90 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Bruxish 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 Bruxish.  So knowing this, there are really two ways you could play this card in a deck.  The first is to use it as a starter type Pokemon, putting one Energy card on Bruxish and using Vivid Charge a couple of turns to get Energy cards into your hand, therefore making sure you can attach at least one Energy card per turn to your Pokemon.  The other strategy with this card would be to set it up on the Bench, therefore when moved to the active Pokemon spot, it can do 90 damage a turn every turn with Psychic Fangs.  The only downside to this card is that it does take awhile to actually do damage when attacking, and although 110 HP is high for a Basic Pokemon, usually with a Pokemon that requires three Energy cards to attack, you want an even higher HP than that.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion this is an average Basic Pokemon card from the Sun and Moon set.  This card is certainly worth a look in Water type decks or in decks where lots of Energy cards are needed in a player's hand.  So I could certainly using one or two of these in a deck.
