Wigglytuff -- Fates Collide Pokemon Card Review

Wigglytuff Fates Collide Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Wigglytuff from the Fates Collide Pokemon Card Set.  Wigglytuff is a stage 1, fairy type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Wigglytuff does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Expand, for two colorless energy cards this move does 30 damage and any damage done to Wigglytuff during your opponent's next turn is reduced by 30.  Wigglytuff's second move is called Double Slap and for three colorless energy cards this move does 60 damage times the number of heads you get when flipping two coins.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Wigglytuff is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Jigglypuff into play (I reviewed Jigglypuff from this set yesterday) and then evolve Jigglypuff into Wigglytuff.  If you read yesterday's review of Jigglypuff, you'll know that I thought it was an above average Basic Pokemon card and one I would recommend using as a starter type Pokemon since it used only colorless energy cards to attack and could attack for one or two energy cards plus had an above average HP.  So knowing this about Jigglypuff and looking at this Wigglytuff card, this card follows suit in that it can be used in any deck since both moves that this card has require colorless energy cards.  If you plan on doing a lot of damage with this card you'll want to use a Trick Coin trainer to potentially do 120 damage a turn with Double Slap, otherwise you could use a 1-1 line of this Pokemon family and depend on Expand for two energy cards and spend the remaining energy on setting up your benched Pokemon.  Overall, when building a deck, this line is one that should definitely be considered, especially since it is a fairy type card that can be used with any type energy.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average Stage 1 Pokemon card from the Fates Collide set.  Other than depending on coin flips for Double Slap, this card is good overall, with a higher than normal HP and two pretty good moves.  Together with Jigglypuff from this set, I would give this line a 4 out of 5 rating, it is nothing spectacular but very solid and can work in many decks.

Wigglytuff #90/146 -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Wigglytuff Pokemon X and Y Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Wigglytuff from the Pokemon XY Card Set.  This is the second of two consecutive Wigglytuff cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  Wigglytuff is a stage 1, fairy type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100.  It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy retreat cost.  Wigglytuff does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Balloon Barrage, this move requires one colorless energy card and does 20 damage times the number of energy cards attached to this Pokemon.  Wigglytuff's second move is called Double-Edge, this move requires three energy cards, two fairy and one colorless, and does 90 damage, however it does do 10 damage to Wigglytuff itself.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Wigglytuff is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get one of the two Jigglypuff cards from this set onto your bench and then evolve Jigglypuff into Wigglytuff.  I have reviewed both Jigglypuff cards from this set the past two days as well as the other Wigglytuff card.  After reviewing all of those cards, you'll want to use the Jigglypuff numbered 88 with one of the Wigglytuff cards.  Both Wigglytuff cards from this set are pretty good in my opinion, so I would actually say to use a 2-2 line with the Jigglypuff that I mentioned and then 1 each of the Wigglytuff cards from this set.  If you prefer to use a more defensive strategy when playing, yesterday's Wigglytuff card is better, if you are more offensive-minded, today's Wigglytuff card is best.  You'll definitely want to set this Wigglytuff card up on the bench to get at least 3 energy cards on it, then use whichever move will do more damage for you.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is a very good stage 1 Pokemon card and a stage 1 card that should be included in most fairy type decks out there.  Like I mentioned in the strategy section of this post, both Wigglytuff cards from this set are pretty good so I would use both in a fairy type deck.  Overall, I would give this Wigglytuff card along with the Jigglypuff I mentioned earlier a 4 out of 5 rating.

Wigglytuff #89/146 -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Wigglytuff Pokemon X and Y Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Wigglytuff from the Pokemon XY Card Set.  This is the first of two consecutive Wigglytuff cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  Wigglytuff is a stage 1, fairy type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100.  It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy retreat cost.  This Wigglytuff does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Gather Energy and for one colorless energy card this move allows you to search your deck for a basic energy card and attach it to one of your Pokemon.  Wigglytuff's second move is called Hocus Pinkus, this move requires three energy cards, two colorless and one fairy, and does 60 damage, besides doing the damage, your opponent's active Pokemon can't attack during their next turn.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Wigglytuff is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get one of the two Jigglypuff cards from this set onto your bench and then evolve Jigglypuff into Wigglytuff.  I have reviewed both Jigglypuff cards from this set the past two days and the one I reviewed yesterday, number 88/146 is the Jigglypuff I would recommend out of the two because it can do higher damage and has a higher hp.  So either move Jigglypuff into the active Pokemon spot to start the game or get Wigglytuff onto your bench and put three energy cards on it so you can move it to the active Pokemon spot and use Hocus Pinkus every turn.  I would recommend using this line in your fairy type deck, but wouldn't use more than a 2-2 line of Jigglypuff and Wigglytuff.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is an above average stage 1 Pokemon card from the X and Y set.  Besides having a good hp, and a low retreat cost, I really like Wigglytuff's move Hocus Pinkus which basically makes your opponent unable to attack, plus it does 60 damage a turn which is pretty good.  So if you're building a fairy type deck and need 2 to 4 more Pokemon in the deck, I would definitely recommend this line, overall I would give the Jigglypuff I mentioned and the Wigglytuff from today a 4 out of 5 rating, Jigglypuff was a 3 and Wigglytuff was a 4.
