Cottonee -- Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Cottonee from the Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Set.  Cottonee is a Basic, Fairy type Pokemon card with a HP of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to Metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to Darkness type Pokemon, and a one Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Cottonee does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move on this card is called Continuous Tumble, for one Colorless Energy card this move does 10 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip a coin until you get tails.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Cottonee is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Whimsicott, 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, unless you're using 4 Trick Coin Trainer cards in your deck and have two chances at flipping as many heads as possible, I would not use this card in a deck.  Mainly due to the fact that this card has just one move, and it isn't guaranteed to do damage when used.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Whimsicott, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card from the Guardians Rising set.  Despite having a solid HP, low retreat cost, and the potential to do a fair amount of damage when attacking, like I mentioned above, because the only move that this card has is based off of coin flips, I would look elsewhere for a Basic Pokemon card to use in a Fairy type deck.

Cottonee -- Fates Collide Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Cottonee from the Fates Collide Pokemon Card Set.  Cottonee is a basic, fairy type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Cottonee does not have Ability and it only has one move called Fairy Wind that does 10 damage for one colorless energy card.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Cottonee is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Whimsicott, 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, I cannot recommend using this card in a deck, mainly because of its below average HP and the fact that it only has one move, making the card very limited overall.  So unless you are using this card to get to Whimsicott, do not use this card in a deck.  If using with Whimsicott, this card could be put in the active Pokemon spot for one turn, since it can attack with one energy card and do 10 damage.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Whimsicott, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card.  There really isn't anything terrible about this card, it is just limited in what it can do and has a low HP.  So if you're looking for a Basic Pokemon card to use in a fairy type deck, definitely look elsewhere.

Cottonee -- Ancient Origins Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Cottonee from the Ancient Origins Pokemon Card Set.  Cottonee is a basic, fairy type Pokemon card with an hp of 40.  It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Cottonee does not have an Ability or an Ancient Trait and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Cotton Bed and for one fairy type energy card, it does 10 damage plus it puts the defending Pokemon to sleep.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Cottonee is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Whimsicott, 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, I would not recommend using this card in a deck, mainly because it has such a low HP, and if you get it into the active Pokemon spot any other time than to start the game, the card is going to get knocked out in one move.  The one thing that I like about this card is that it puts the defending Pokemon to sleep, so potentially, if you don't mind the low HP, you could use this card as a starter Pokemon and put it in the active Pokemon spot to start the game, put the defending Pokemon to sleep, and then work on setting up your bench.  But, like I said, if you want to use this card in a deck, don't use more than 1 because it has such a low HP.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Whimsicott, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card.  This card is similar to cards that I usually give a 1 out of 5 rating, but because the one move Cottonee has does inflict a special condition and do damage, I am bumping this card up a point.  But overall, this card definitely isn't a card that has to be in decks, you can definitely do better.
