Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Duskull from the Burning Shadows set. Duskull is a Basic, Psychic type Pokemon card with a HP of 60. It has a x2 weakness to Darkness type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to Fighting type Pokemon, 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 Dark Guidance, for one Psychic Energy card, this move allows you to move a Basic Pokemon from your discard pile to your hand. The second move on this card is called Spooky Shot and for two Energy cards, one each of Psychic and Colorless, does 20 damage.
Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Dusclops is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Dusclops, and a Stage 2 evolution in Dusknoir, which I'll be reviewing the next couple of days, you'll more than likely want to use some of those Pokemon with this card, however, since I have not reviewed any of those cards yet, I will just act like Duskull does not have any evolution forms and that it will be used on its own. On its own, I could potentially see trying to use this card as a starter type Pokemon in a Psychic type deck. You would put this card into the Active Pokemon spot to start the game, then if you use an Ultra Ball Trainer to get Tapu Lele GX on your Bench, you could discard a Basic Pokemon, then use Dark Guidance on this card to get the card you just discarded on the Bench. Other than for this specific strategy, there is really no use to using this card on its own, since many Pokemon out there can do a lot more damage than 20 for two Energy cards.
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 from the Burning Shadows set. Although this card does have a solid HP, low retreat cost, and two moves, I still wouldn't recommend using this card on its own, mainly due to the fact it can't do any damage for one Energy card, and unless you are specifically discarding Pokemon early in the game, you can't use this card later in games as it will get knocked out quite quickly.
