Kyogre ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Kyogre ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a basic, water type Pokemon card with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Kyogre has the same Poke-Body as Groudon from yesterday. It is called Mark of Antiquity and says that as long as Kyogre ex is your active Pokemon, Groudon ex and Rayquaza ex cannot attack. Besides the Poke-Body, Kyogre has two moves, the first move is called Water Arrow which takes two colorless energy cards and does 20 damage to one of your opponent’s Pokemon. Kyogre’s other move is called Super Tidal Wave and for three energy cards, two water and one colorless it does 50 damage plus 10 more damage for each energy card in your hand, after doing the attack you must shuffle all the energy cards in your hand back into your deck.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Just like yesterday, for a Legendary EX Pokemon card this card isn't too great, 20 damage to any of your opponent’s Pokemon isn’t a very powerful move and why would you want to use Super Tidal Wave if you have to move all your energy cards in your hand to your deck? As far as the artwork goes I like this card quite a bit better than Groudon ex. The artwork which is done by Hikaru Koike looks good, it makes Kyogre look like the massive Pokemon it is and yet the card almost relaxes you because of the red and blue coloring of the holographic pattern. I do have this ex card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $6, on Professor-Oak it sells for $16.63 and $26.24 on PokeOrder.

Groudon ex -- EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Groudon ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a basic, fighting type Pokemon card with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Groudon's Poke-Body is called Mark of Antiquity which says that as long as Groudon is your active Pokemon, Kyogre and Rayquaza ex can't attack. Besides the Poke-Body, Groudon has two moves, the first move is called Rock Tumble which takes two colorless energy cards and does 30 damage. Groudon's second move is called Crushing Mantle which takes three energy cards, two fighting and one colorless, and does 50 damage plus 10 more damage for each energy card you choose to discard from your hand.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
For a Legendary EX Pokemon card this card isn't too great, which is probably why this isn't a very expensive ex card to buy. It doesn't do much damage unless you want to discard energy cards so if for some reason you are able to use ex cards in battle this isn't one I would suggest. As far as the artwork goes I don't like it at all. It looks like Groudon is a shark and this artwork reminds me of Sharpedo more than Groudon. The colors give the card an almost emo look. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $9, on Professor-Oak it sells for $16.54 and $22.49 on PokeOrder.

Swampert ex -- EX Team Magma vs. Team Aqua Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Swampert ex from the EX Team Magma vs. Team Aqua set. This is a stage 2, fighting type Pokemon, with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Swampert doesn't have a Poke-Body or Poke-Power but it does have two moves, the first move is called Hyper Pump which takes one colorless energy card and does 20 damage plus 20 more damage for each energy card attached to Swampert not used for this attack. Swampert's second move is called Crushing Wave which takes three energy cards, two colorless and one water, and does 40 damage to one of your opponent's Pokemon, whichever one you choose. Besides doing the damage you may flip a coin and if you get a heads the Pokemon you attacked must discard any energy card.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This card, just like the Sceptile ex card annoys me. Both of these cards make the Pokemon look extremely dumbfounded and confused. I don't know why the artist would make the Pokemon look like that. Another strange thing about this card is that it is a fighting type card but it doesn't require any fighting type energy cards to attack. Overall this card isn't bad it can do spread damage and can do a fair amount of damage without having to discard any energy cards. 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 $26.33 and $28.49 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
The other ex cards from this set are: Blaziken, Cradily, Entei, Raikou, Sceptile, and Suicune.

Suicune ex -- EX Team Magma vs Team Aqua Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Suicune ex from the EX Team Magma vs. Team Aqua set. This is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to electric type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Suicune doesn't have a Poke-Body or Poke-Power but it does have two moves, the first move is called Energy Flip and for one water energy card you may do ten damage to one of your opponents Pokemon and move an energy card from that Pokemon to one of your opponent's other Pokemon. Suicune's second move is called Reverse Stream which takes three energy cards, two water and one colorless, and does 50 damage plus 10 more damage for each energy card you return to your hand if you decide to return all basic energy cards from Suicune ex to your hand.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This is definitely one ex card that I don't like at all. I don't like the artwork for some reason, it just doesn't do anything for me. I think Suicune looks too skinny to be a Pokemon. Besides the bad artwork, neither of its moves are very good, you don't want to attach three energy cards to Suicune then do 80 damage and not be able to use that move for 3 more turns. So if you're looking for an ex card to use in an unlimited format look elsewhere. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $10, isn't sold on Professor-Oak, and is $36.74 PokeOrder.
