Sewaddle -- Phantom Forces Pokemon Card Review

Sewaddle Phantom Forces Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Sewaddle from the Phantom Forces set.  Sewaddle is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Sewaddle does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Nap, this move requires one grass type energy card and heals 20 damage from Sewaddle.  Sewaddle's second move is called Bug Bite, this move requires two energy cards, one each of colorless and grass, and does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Sewaddle is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Sewaddle and a stage 2 evolution in Leavanny, which I'll be reviewing the next two days, you'll more than likely want to use those cards with this Pokemon.  However, since I haven't reviewed those cards yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolutions.  So on its own, I probably wouldn't recommend using this card in a deck, just because of its low HP and the fact it can't attack without two energy cards on it.  I would have no problem using this card with the rest of this Pokemon family, but on its own, I wouldn't use this card, and even if I did, I would make sure to use not more than 1.  If you did use one of these in your deck, I would get it into the active Pokemon spot early, and use Nap first if Sewaddle has any damage on it, then Bug Bite after that, and then make sure to retreat it as soon as I get a better Pokemon set up on the bench.

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 Phantom Forces set.  This card does have some good things about it, like the fact it has two moves and a low retreat cost.  But this card gets a lower rating from me because it has a low HP, and neither move it has is that great, making this card inferior to most Basic Pokemon cards out there.

Sewaddle -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Sewaddle Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Sewaddle from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set.  Sewaddle is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Sewaddle does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Gnaw, for two colorless energy cards this move does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Sewaddle is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Swadloon and a stage 2 evolution in Leavanny, and another basic Sewaddle card in the Legendary Treasures set all reprinted from Noble Victories, if you would like to know how to use this entire family please read those reviews I wrote previously.  This review is going to focus solely on this Sewaddle card and whether it should be used on its own in a deck.  So after giving an overview of this card, I would not recommend using this card on its own in a deck, even though this card will fit into any deck and Gnaw is an average move, I would not use this card in a deck because it doesn't have an attack for one energy card and only has 50 hp.  Of course if you use this card in your deck, you'll want to get it into the active Pokemon spot early in the game and use Gnaw every turn.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a slightly below average basic Pokemon card from the Legendary Treasures set.  Because this card cannot attack quickly and it has a below average hp I'm giving it a below average rating, but with that being said, this card definitely isn't terrible and could be used if you're in a dire situation.

Sewaddle -- Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Review

Sewaddle Plasma Storm Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Sewaddle from the Plasma Storm Pokemon Card Set.  Sewaddle is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 40.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Sewaddle does not have an Ability, and it only has one move.  The only move it has is called Bug Bite, this move requires one grass energy card and does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Sewaddle is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Swadloon and a stage 2 evolution in Leavanny, which I'll be reviewing the next two days, you'll more than likely want to use those cards with this Pokemon.  However, since I haven't reviewed those cards yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolutions.  So on its own, more than likely I would not use this card in a deck.  I wouldn't rule the possibility out, because Sewaddle can do 20 damage for one energy card but because of its low hp I would definitely be weary of using this card by itself.  If you do choose to use this card in a deck, I would suggest using it in a grass type deck and having a Cherrim in the deck so you can use its Ability and heal 20 damage a turn with that card.  That way, Sewaddle will have a more average hp.  You'll want to get Sewaddle into the active Pokemon spot as early as possible since it can attack quickly and do a good amount of damage as well.  The earlier you get this card in the game the better because you'll get knocked out pretty quickly if you put a basic Pokemon card into play that only has 40 hp later in the game when you're facing stage 1 and stage 2 Pokemon.

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.  Like I said earlier in this review, I do like Sewaddle's move because it is quick and can do a good amount of damage, but because this card has such a low hp, it is definitely not a must have in any grass type deck out there.
