Latios ex -- EX Dragon Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
To everyone that celebrates Christmas, Merry Christmas everyone! With that being said, today's Pokemon Card Review is of Latios ex from the EX Dragon set. This is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to colorless Pokemon, a -30 resistance to both grass and fighting type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Latios doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Energy Stream which takes one colorless energy card and does 10 damage, plus you get to flip a coin when you use this move, and if you get a heads you may search your discard pile for an energy card and attach it to Latios ex. Latios' other move is called Luster Purge which takes three energy cards, one each of grass, eletric, and colorless and does 100 damage, however you must discard 3 energy cards attached to Latios after this move.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
It is very fitting I'm reviewing this card on Christmas, many years ago when EX Dragon was the new set out, I opened EX Dragon packs for Christmas and pulled this exact card which I still have today. Just like Latias from yesterday, this is a one-hit wonder kind of card doing 100 damage one turn and then not being able to do the move again for a few turns. Just make sure to have this card in a deck with grass and electric type Pokemon. I like the artwork on Latios better than Latios. The artwork was done by Ryo Ueda.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $7, on Professor-Oak it sells for $11.89 and on PokeOrder it goes for $29.99.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
The other ex cards from this set are: Ampharos, Dragonite, Golem, Kingdra, Latias, Magcargo, Muk, and Rayquaza.

Latias ex -- EX Dragon Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Latias ex from the EX Dragon set. This is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to colorless type Pokemon, a -30 resistance to both psychic and fighting type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Latias doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Hypnoblast which does 10 damage for one colorless energy card. Also if you get a heads when you flip a coin the defending Pokemon is asleep. Latias' second move is called Mist Ball which requires three energy cards, one each of colorless, fire, and water and does 100 damage, but you must discard a fire and water energy card when you get done using Mist Ball.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
It isn't often you see a Pokemon card that can do a damage that is more than its HP, but today's card does exactly that. I would save Latias for a one-hit wonder late in the game, put it in, use Mist Ball and then retreat it out the next turn. Just make sure to include this card in a fire and water type deck. This card was illustrated by Ryo Ueda, even though this card is red, white, and blue I don't really like the artwork on this card. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $10, on Professor-Oak it sells for $14.99 and on PokeOrder it goes for $29.99. So this is a fairly inexpensive ex card for a Legendary Pokemon.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:

Kingdra ex -- EX Dragon Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Kingdra ex from the EX Dragon set. This is a stage 2, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to both grass and electric type Pokemon. Kingdra ex doesn't have a resistance type, and its retreat cost is three colorless energy cards. Kingdra ex doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Genetic Memory which takes one water energy card and does any move from the Kingdra's basic or stage 1 Pokemon card, so similar to Lv. X cards. Kingdra's second move is called Hydrocannon which takes three colorless energy cards and does 50 damage plus 20 more damage for each water energy card attached to this card but not used to pay for this attack.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
If you're playing in an ultimate format, I would search through all the Horsea and Seadra cards out there to find the best ones to use with Genetic Memory. Otherwise I would put up to 5 energy cards on Kingdra so I could do 90 damage every turn. I like the artwork on this card which is done by Hikaru Koike. I like the background design, it almost looks 3d, plus Kingdra looks very dark and dangerous. I believe I have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $6, on Professor-Oak it sells for $6 and on PokeOrder it goes for $37.49. This looks like a pretty cheap ex card, unless you want to fork over another 30 dollars and buy it from PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
The other ex cards from this set are: Ampharos, Dragonite, Golem, Latias, Latios, Magcargo, Muk, and Rayquaza.

Golem ex -- EX Dragon Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Golem ex from the EX Dragon set. This is a stage 2, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 160. It has a x2 weakness to both grass and water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a 5 colorless energy card retreat cost. Golem doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Magnitude which takes three energy cards, two colorless and one fighting, and does 60 damage plus 10 damage to each benched Pokemon in play. Golem's second move is called Double-edge which takes 5 energy cards, two fighting and three colorless and does 120 damage but does 50 damage to itself.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Even though this card can do 120 damage I wouldn't try and use it very much in a deck I would make, just because it takes so long to attack and it takes forever to retreat. I would think about putting it on my bench and occasionally attaching energy cards to it and at the end of the game use Double-edge. Other than that, I don't really like this card, I personally don't like the artwork, which is done by Hikaru Koike. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $5, on Professor-Oak it sells for $12.02 and on PokeOrder it goes for $29.99. I would say this is an averaged priced ex card from this set, but one I definitely wouldn't buy.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
