Mesprit -- Plasma Blast Pokemon Card Review

Mesprit Plasma Blast Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Mesprit from the Plasma Blast Pokemon Card Set.  Mesprit is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card with an hp of 60. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Mesprit's Ability is called Mental Shroud, this ability says that if you have Mesprit, Uxie, and Azelf all in play, none of your Pokemon have retreat costs.  Besides the Ability, Mesprit only has one move called Psyshot, this move requires three energy cards, two colorless and one psychic, and does 30 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Mesprit 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, if you want to use this card in a deck the only time you should be using it is if you have Uxie and Azelf in the deck as well, that way you can utilize its Ability.  I reviewed Uxie from this set yesterday and it is very good, so you should have four of those in a spread damage type deck, I would definitely add one Mesprit card to that deck to try and utilize Mesprit's Mental Shroud Ability, that way if you're building a spread damage type deck, those Pokemon can move in and out of the active Pokemon spot with no problem at all.  Besides the Ability on this card, I would always try to keep Mesprit on the bench since Psyshot does below average damage for the number of energy cards it requires.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average basic Pokemon card from the Plasma Blast set.  Even though this card can't do much attacking wise, it is a vital card for a deck if you want all of your Pokemon to have free retreat costs.  So the Ability only makes this card an average card, because of course Psyshot is too slow and doesn't do enough damage to even be an average move.
