Tympole -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Tympole from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Tympole is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Tympole does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Bubble which requires one water energy card and does 10 damage plus paralyzes the defending Pokemon if you get a heads when you flip a coin.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Tympole has a stage 1 evolution in Palpitoad, and a stage 2 evolution in Seismitoad, there is absolutely no reason to put this card into the active Pokemon spot if it hasn't evolved into at least its stage 1 evolution.  My main reason for saying this is that Tympole can't do as much damage or endure as much damage as one of its evolutions can.  However, if you're forced to put this card into the active Pokemon spot you have no choice but to use Bubble since this is the only move this card has, once again, I would try and evolve Tympole as soon as possible.  I would keep this card on the bench and attach 3 or 4 energy cards on it so when you evolve it you can use Palpitoad's or Seismitoad's moves right away instead of having to wait.  As of now, I wouldn't use this card on its own.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a bit below average for a basic Pokemon card, it has below average hp for a basic Pokemon, and only one move, although a good move, with only one move on this card it isn't too great because you can't do anything else unless you evolve the card.

Floatzel -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Floatzel from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Floatzel is a stage 1, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90.  Floatzel is the stage 1 evolution of Buizel, there is a Buizel card in this set and I reviewed that card yesterday.  Floatzel has a x2 weakness to electric type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Floatzel does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Wave Splash and this move requires one colorless energy card and does 20 damage.  Floatzel's second move is called Waterfall and for two water energy cards, this move does 60 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since this is a stage 1 Pokemon, you'll first have to evolve Buizel into Floatzel to use this card.  Like I said yesterday, you can probably try and get Buizel into the active Pokemon spot very early in the game because it is a good starter Pokemon but I would try evolving Buizel into Floatzel as soon as possible because Floatzel can do 60 damage a turn for only two energy cards, thus if you get Floatzel into the active Pokemon spot early, you should be able to knock out some Pokemon in one turn, most Pokemon in two turns.  The only reason I wouldn't use Waterfall when playing this card is if I didn't have two energy cards attached to Floatzel.  I would include a 2-2 line of Buizel and Floatzel in a water type deck.

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.  What I really like about this card is its move Waterfall, I like the fact that it does above average damage for the amount of energy cards it requires to attack and the fact that it can attack very quickly.  So I would definitely recommend using this card in any water type deck you may consider building.

Buizel -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Buizel from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Buizel is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to electric type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Buizel does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Wave Splash which requires one colorless energy card and does 10 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Buizel has a stage 1 evolution in Floatzel, I would recommend evolving Buizel into Floatzel as soon as possible, but this card is a good card to start your game with because it has an above average hp for a basic Pokemon, and is fast since it only requires one energy card to do damage.  So I would try and start the game with Buizel and attach two energy cards to it, then you can evolve it into Floatzel from this set which I'll be reviewing tomorrow and use Floatzel's move that does 60 damage per turn for only two energy cards.  This is a basic Pokemon card that I would recommend using on its own, but if you're using this card on its own I wouldn't use more than 1 or 2 in any type deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  For a basic Pokemon card that can be used as a starter Pokemon, I think this Pokemon card is very good.  Like I stated above, this card has a good hp, low retreat cost, and can attack very quickly, so it is a great card to start your game with.  Also, its evolution is very good, so that makes the card that much better because its evolution is that good.

Walrein -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Walrein from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Walrein is a stage 2, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 140.  Walrein is the stage 2 evolution of Sealeo, and before that Spheal, both of those Pokemon I have reviewed the past couple of days, and both of those Pokemon are in this set.  Walrein has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a four colorless energy card retreat cost.  Walrein does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Aurora Beam which requires three energy cards, two colorless and one water, and does 80 damage.  Walrein's second move is called Ice Entomb and for four energy cards, two each of water and colorless, this moves does 60 damage plus paralyzes the defending Pokemon, however you can only use this move once every other turn.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Walrein is a stage 2 Pokemon, I would recommend evolving Spheal into Sealeo and Sealeo into Walrein on the bench, once you get three energy cards attached to Walrein I would move it into the active Pokemon spot and use Aurora Beam every turn, unless the defending Pokemon had more than 160 hp or Walrein would be knocked out during the next turn, then I would use Ice Entomb instead of Aurora Beam.  Since Walrein is quite slow, you'll have to set it up the bench like I mentioned, because of this slowness I wouldn't use that many Pokemon from this line in a deck, I would only use a 3-2-1 line of Spheal, Sealeo, and Walrein in a water type deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  To me, this is a pretty average Pokemon card, it has some positives and negatives which balance out to make this card very average.  Walrein has a decent hp but terribly high retreat cost, Aurora Beam is a good move, however Ice Entomb requires too many energy cards to do less damage than a move that does more damage for less energy cards.  So overall this is an average card that could work in a water type deck.
