Gible -- BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Review

Gible BREAKpoint Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Gible from the BREAKpoint set.  Gible is a basic, fighting type Pokemon card with an HP of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Gible does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Never Enough.  This move requires one fighting energy card to use and allows you to draw two cards from your deck if you discard a card from your hand.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Gible is a basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Gabite, and a Stage 2 evolution in Garchomp, 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 Gible does not have any evolution forms and that it will be used on its own.  On its own, this card isn't one I would use in a deck, since it only has one move, and the only move it has can easily be replaced by a trainer or supporter card.  I could see if you were using this whole Pokemon family in your deck, that way you could get one more card in your hand after discarding one, but for the most part, this card either belongs on the bench if using Gabite or out of your deck entirely.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very poor Basic Pokemon card from the BREAKpoint set.  Although this card does have some positives, like the fact it has a solid HP, low retreat cost, and a quick attacking move, this card is just too limited, and the one move that this card has really doesn't do much for you and should be replaced by a trainer card.  So like I said above, do not use this card unless you have to use it to get to Gabite and Garchomp.

Gible #87/124 -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Gible Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Gible from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  This is the second of two consecutive Gible cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  Gible is a basic, dragon type Pokemon card, with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to dragon type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Gible does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Sand-Attack and for one fighting energy card this move makes your opponent flip a coin if they try and attack the next turn, if they get a tails they can't attack.  Gible's second move is called Knock Away which takes two energy cards, one each of colorless and water and does 10 damage plus 20 more damage if you get a heads when you flip a coin.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Gible has a stage 1 evolution in Gabite, and a stage 2 evolution in Garchomp, you can definitely leave this card on your bench and evolve Gible into its evolutions before putting it into the active Pokemon spot.  With this card, I would recommend keeping it on the bench and evolving it into an evolution before putting it into play, if you are looking to put Gible into play right away, I would use yesterday's Gible card.  If you have to put this Gible card into the active Pokemon spot, I would put two energy cards on this card and use Knock Away every turn.  But like I said a bit earlier, I would recommend the other Gible card from this set over this card.  I would not use more than 1 of these cards in a deck if you're only using this card.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this card is a bit worse than the Gible card I reviewed yesterday, even though this card has a higher hp than that card, I still like that card better.  This card depends too much on luck, and isn't as good of starter card as yesterday's card.

Gible #86/124 -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Gible Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Gible from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  This is the first of two consecutive Gible cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  Gible is a basic, dragon type Pokemon card, with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to dragon type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Gible does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Tackle and for one colorless energy card this move does 10 damage.  Gible's second move is called Gnaw which takes two energy cards, one each of fighting and water and does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Gible has a stage 1 evolution in Gabite, and a stage 2 evolution in Garchomp, you can definitely leave this card on your bench and evolve Gible into its evolutions before putting it into the active Pokemon spot.  However, Gible is a pretty good starter card in my opinion, so if you get it in your hand right away at the start of the game, I would not be afraid at all to put it into the active Pokemon spot.  Move wise, use whichever move you have the necessary amount of energy cards for and when you get Gible's evolutions evolve Gible that next turn.  I'll have to compare this Gible card to the other Gible card from this set that I'll be reviewing tomorrow to see which one is better.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an excellent starter Pokemon card for any deck that fits this card.  Even though this card is a dragon type card, you'll have to put this card into a water and fighting type deck.  So if you have a fighting or water type deck, I would definitely recommend putting a couple of these cards in your deck as starter type Pokemon.
