Fletchling -- Roaring Skies Pokemon Card Review

Fletchling Roaring Skies Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Fletchling from the Roaring Skies set.  Fletchling is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 40.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to fighting type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Fletchling does not have an Ability or Ancient Trait and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Acrobatics, this move requires one colorless energy card to use and does 10 damage plus 10 more damage for each heads you get when you flip two coins.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Fletchling is a basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Fletchinder, and a Stage 2 evolution in Talonflame, which I've reviewed in the past since both are fire type Pokemon in this set, you can use this card with those Pokemon, however after reviewing both of those cards, neither are very good, so I will be looking at this Fletchling card on its own and see if its worthy of use.  So, on its own, this card shouldn't be used mainly because of its low HP, 40 HP on the first turn of the game may be okay, but after that you're going to get knocked out very quickly.  Too bad too because Acrobatics is a pretty good move for only one energy card, but you still can't use a card with such a low HP.  So overall, I can't recommend any Pokemon from this family in this set.

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 Roaring Skies set.  This card basically boils down to the fact that it has a good move, but the HP on this card is just way too low to merit use.  So knowing this entire line, I would give this family a 1 out of 5 rating, it is extremely poor overall.
