Psyduck -- Sun and Moon Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Psyduck from the Sun and Moon Pokemon Card Set.  Psyduck is a Basic, Water type Pokemon card with a HP of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to Grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Psyduck does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  Its only move is called Confusion Wave, for one Colorless Energy card this move Confuses both Active Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Psyduck is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Golduck, 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 plan on Confusing the defending Pokemon to start the game then switching out Psyduck to use a Pokemon that benefits from the opposing Pokemon being confused, there is really no reason to use Psyduck on its own.  Sure, the card has a higher HP and can use any type of Energy to attack, but it can't do any damage, and it Confuses itself.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Golduck, this is a well below average Basic Pokemon card.  Like I mentioned above, if a card can't do any damage and inflicts a Special Condition on itself, there is no reason to use that card in a deck.  The only reason to even consider using this card is if you have to use it in order to get to Golduck.

Psyduck -- BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Psyduck from the BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Set.  Psyduck is a basic, water 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. Psyduck does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  This move is called Stampede and for two colorless energy cards this move does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Psyduck is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Golduck, 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, since this card is a Basic Pokemon you usually want to see if it works as a starter type Pokemon, but because this card can't attack for only one energy card it doesn't make for a great card to use.  If you are using Double Colorless energy cards in your deck, this card can essentially attack for one energy card, but doing 20 damage isn't anything better than average.  So this is probably a card I would not recommend using on its own and one that would be best suited to leave on the bench and evolve into Golduck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Golduck, this is a slightly below average Basic Pokemon card from the BREAKpoint set.  This card does have some positives on it, like its solid HP and low retreat cost, plus you can use any energy type on it to attack, but because this card just has the one move on it, and that move requires two energy cards to use, I cannot give it a better rating than a 2.

Psyduck #33/143 -- Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card Review

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Psyduck from the Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card Set.  This is the second of two consecutive Psyduck Pokemon cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  I reviewed the other Psyduck card from this set yesterday.  Psyduck is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost.  Psyduck does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  Its only move is called Firefighting which requires 1 water energy card and allows you to discard a fire energy card attached to the defending Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Psyduck is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Golduck, I would recommend keeping Psyduck on your bench and evolving it into Golduck before moving it into the active Pokemon spot.  I would definitely keep this card on the bench if I were using this version of Psyduck, neither Psyduck card from this set is worth putting into the starting Pokemon without immediately evolving it into Golduck. If you plan on using Golduck in a deck, I would definitely recommend finding a Psyduck card that isn't from the Boundaries Crossed set because both cards are terrible.  If you have to use this card in your deck and are forced to put it into the active Pokemon spot, your only option is to evolve Psyduck as soon as possible or use Firefighting every turn.  Again, do not use this card in a deck, especially not on its own.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very disappointing basic Pokemon card, in my opinion it is even more disappointing than yesterday's Psyduck card which I thought was terrible.  The only thing this card has going for it is that it has a high hp for a basic Pokemon.  Other than that this card has nothing, it has a terribly high retreat cost, one terrible move, that is rarely effective, and can never do damage, and just terrible overall.  Do not use this card.

Psyduck #32/143 -- Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Psyduck from the Boundaries Crossed Pokemon Card Set.  This is the first of two consecutive Psyduck Pokemon cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  I'll be reviewing the other one tomorrow.  Psyduck is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Psyduck does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  Its only move is called Dazzle Dance which requires one colorless energy card and confuses the defending Pokemon if you get a heads.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Psyduck is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Golduck, I would recommend keeping Psyduck on your bench and evolving it into Golduck before moving it into the active Pokemon spot.  I would definitely keep this card on the bench if I were using this version of Psyduck, tomorrow I'll have to see if the other version of Psyduck from this set is better.  So again, I would not move Psyduck into the active Pokemon spot without evolving it first and I would definitely not use Psyduck in a deck on its own.  If for some reason you are forced to put Psyduck into the active Pokemon spot, you really have no choice on what to do, since it only has the one move.  Once again, do not use this card on your own, but if you use this card with Golduck, I may consider putting cards in the deck that benefit if the defending Pokemon is confused, that way you can use Dazzle Dance and retreat Psyduck the next turn and put that Pokemon in the active Pokemon spot that benefits from the defending Pokemon being confused.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very disappointing basic Pokemon card.  Since I haven't reviewed the other Psyduck card from this set I can't for certain say I would recommend that one over this one, but almost anything would be better than this card.  I guess this card does have a good hp, and low retreat cost, but it can't for sure be any damage, and it may not do anything during a turn if you get a tails when you flip a coin.  So I would recommend staying as far away as possible from this card.
