Teddiursa -- BREAKthrough Pokemon Card Review

Teddiursa BREAKthrough Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Teddiursa from the BREAKthrough Pokemon Card Set.  Teddiursa is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Teddiursa does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Flop that does 30 damage for two colorless energy cards.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Teddiursa is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Ursaring, 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, if you're using Double Colorless energy cards in your deck, this card can essentially do 30 damage for one energy card, which would be very good as a starter type Pokemon in any type deck out there.  But because this card requires two energy cards to attack and to retreat this card isn't a strong starter type Pokemon by any means but one that could be used in a deck and used fairly regularly.  It would also make a good card to use in the active Pokemon spot before evolving into Ursaring.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Ursaring, this is an average Basic Pokemon card from the BREAKthrough set.  I like that this card has an above average HP, can be used in any type deck, and can do above average damage, the only thing holding me back on giving this card a little better rating is its high retreat cost and fact it requires two energy cards to attack.  But, overall this card is a solid one and one that can be used on its own.

Teddiursa -- Plasma Blast Pokemon Card Review

Teddiursa Plasma Blast Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Teddiursa from the Plasma Blast Pokemon Card Set.  Teddiursa is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Teddiursa does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move this card has is called Fury Swipes, for two colorless energy cards, this move does 10 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip three coins.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Teddiursa is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Ursaring, 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, I would not recommend using this card in a deck.  I say this because even though Teddiursa has a high hp for a basic Pokemon, it only has one move, and that one move does not guarantee that it can do damage every turn and even if you get really lucky and get three heads when using the move, being able to do 30 damage for two energy cards isn't that great of move.  So for those reasons I would not use this card in a deck on its own.  If you choose to use this card in a deck, it can be used in any type of deck since it requires colorless energy cards to attack.  I would recommend only using 1 of these cards maximum for the reasons I stated above, when you get this card into the active Pokemon spot, your only choice will be to use Fury Swipes every turn.

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.  There are only two good things about this card, the hp is good, and the fact that it is a colorless type Pokemon card is also good.  The negatives on this card are abundant, Fury Swipes may end up doing 0 damage every turn for you, Teddiursa only has one move, and if you get this card into the active Pokemon spot, you'll have to discard two energy cards to get it out of that spot.  So again, this card is slightly below average and a card that I would not use in a deck on its own.
