Charizard EX Full Art -- Flashfire Pokemon Card Review

Charizard EX Full Art Flashfire Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Charizard EX and Charizard EX Full Art from the Flashfire Pokemon Card Set.  There are two Charizard EX cards in this set, but only this card is available in both EX and EX Full Art versions.  Charizard EX is a basic, EX, fire type Pokemon card with an hp of 180. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Charizard does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Stoke, this move requires one colorless energy card and allows you to flip a coin, if you get a heads you can search your deck for three energy cards and attach them to Charizard.  Charizard's second move is called Fire Blast this move requires four energy cards, three colorless and one fire, and does 120 damage.  After using this move you must discard an energy card attached to Charizard.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, because Charizard EX is a basic Pokemon card you won't need to use any other cards with this card.  But remember, because this card is an EX card, if this card is knocked out, two prize cards are taken instead of one.  So knowing this, and seeing that Charizard really only has one move that can do damage and that move requires four energy cards you'll want to limit the number of these cards you use.  Ideally, you would get this card into the active Pokemon spot very early in the game, use Stoke the first couple of turns hoping to get a heads and then getting up to 6 energy cards on Charizard very quickly.  Then you would use Fire Blast every turn knocking out most basic Pokemon in 1 turn and all Pokemon in 2 turns.  I would probably put 2 of these cards in a fire type deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very good EX Pokemon card from the Flashfire set.  Besides looking really cool in Full Art form, I like how Fire Blast can do 120 damage every turn and once you get the necessary energy cards on Charizard you can more than likely use that move every turn.  This card is pretty slow if you aren't able to get a heads when using Stoke but once this card is set up, it will be very dominant for you.
