Corsola -- Sun and Moon Pokemon Card Review

Corsola Sun and Moon Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Corsola from the Sun and Moon Pokemon Card Set.  Corsola is a Basic, Water type Pokemon card with a HP of 80.  Corsola has a x2 weakness to Grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Corsola does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Call for Family, for one Colorless Energy card this move allows you to search your deck for up to 2 Basic Pokemon and put them onto your Bench.  Corsola's second move is called Surf, for three Energy cards, one Water and two Colorless, this move does 60 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Corsola 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 Corsola.  So knowing this, the only way I would consider using Corsola in a deck is if you want to start the game by using its Call for Family move and getting your Bench completely full.  Although Surf is an average move, I wouldn't waste three Energy cards on a card that only has 80 HP.  So, if you're building a Water type deck and don't want to use Call for Family, I would pass on using this card in a deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion this is a below average Basic Pokemon card from the Sun and Moon set.  Although this card does have a high HP and two moves, I would not recommend using it in a deck.  This card is too slow on the attack when trying to do damage, and although Call for Family may be useful early in games, it may not help you late in games when you have a full Bench.  So overall, I would probably pass on using this card in a deck.

Corsola -- BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Review

Corsola BREAKpoint Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Corsola from the BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Set.  Corsola is a basic, water type Pokemon card with an hp of 80, it has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Corsola does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Spike Cannon, for two colorless energy cards this move does 30 damage times the number of heads you get when flipping two coins.  Corsola's second move is called Power Gem and for three colorless energy cards this move does 50 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Corsola is a basic Pokemon with no evolutions, you only have to use this Pokemon in your deck if you want to use this card.  With that being said, most times, basic Pokemon you want to use as starter type Pokemon in a deck, but just like Lapras from yesterday, this card is a little slow on the attack, so it would be better to set this card up on the bench and then put it into the active Pokemon spot when it has at least two energy cards on it, you can always make Corsola quicker by using Double Colorless energy.  But with that being said, neither of Corsola's moves are that great, Spike Cannon could do above average damage if you flip two heads, but also could do no damage at all.  So overall, I cannot recommend using this card in a deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card with some positives but one that I cannot recommend overall from the BREAKpoint set.  I do like that Corsola has an above average HP and two moves, plus a low retreat cost.  However, none of the moves Corsola has do even average damage, making this card unusable in my opinion.

Corsola -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Corsola Pokemon X and Y Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Corsola from the X and Y Pokemon Card Set.  Corsola is a basic, water type Pokemon card with an hp of 70, it has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Corsola does not have an Ability, but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Refresh, for one colorless energy card this move allows you to heal 30 damage and remove all special conditions tied to Corsola.  Corsola's second move is called Spiny Rush, this move requires two energy cards, one each of water and colorless, and does 20 damage, plus 20 more damage for each heads you get when you flip a coin until you get a tails.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Corsola is a basic Pokemon with no evolutions, you only have to use this Pokemon in your deck if you want to use this card.  With that being said, this card would make for a perfect starter type Pokemon card in your water type deck.  I would recommend using up to four of these cards and getting one into the active Pokemon spot to start the game.  You'll want to attach two energy cards to Corsola so you can use Spiny Rush every turn.  Once you get two energy cards on Corsola you should be able to get lucky and knock some Pokemon out by attacking, then when Corsola is close to being knocked out you can use Refresh once and be good for another turn or two.  Because Corsola only requires two energy cards to attack and can remove damage counters from it, you should have plenty of time to set up your benched Pokemon while this card is in the active Pokemon spot.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an above average basic Pokemon card from the X and Y set.  Even though this card isn't as flashy as yesterday's basic Pokemon in Lapras, this card is just as solid.  I like how this card has one attacking move and one move that heals Corsola.  These two moves combined make this card last quite awhile in the active Pokemon spot and that is exactly what you need from a starter Pokemon in your deck.  There really isn't anything I don't like about this card so it is definitely worthy of a spot in your water type deck.
