Exeggutor -- Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Exeggutor from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Set.  Exeggutor is a stage 1, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to water type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Exeggutor does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move this card has is called Blockade, this move requires one colorless energy card and 10 damage and makes your opponent unable to use supporter cards during their next turn.  Exeggutor's second move is called Stomp, this move requires three energy cards, two colorless and one grass, and does 60 damage plus 30 more damage if you get a heads when you flip a coin.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Exeggutor is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Exeggcute into play (I reviewed Exeggcute from this set yesterday) and then evolve Exeggcute into Exeggutor.  If you read yesterday's review, you'll know that I thought Exeggcute was a way below average Pokemon card that I would never suggest using on its own.  Because of this, this Exeggutor card needs to be extremely good for me to want to use it in a deck.  So, after summarizing this card in the overview section of this post, I would not recommend using this card in a deck since you have to evolve it from Exeggcute which is not good at all.  However, if you choose to use this line in a grass type deck, you could easily get away with a 2-2 line, and would definitely be wise to use Exeggcute's Ability when it is on your bench to get the other Exeggcute card into your hand before moving one into the active Pokemon spot.  You'll want to keep Exeggcute on the bench since it only has 30 hp and then evolve Exeggcute into Exeggutor there.  Then attach three energy cards to it and use Stomp every turn when it is in the active Pokemon spot.

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.  I like that this card has above average hp, and two decent moves, one capable of doing 90 damage per turn.  Even though this card is average, I wouldn't recommend using this line in a deck because Exeggcute is so poor, overall I would give this line a 2 out of 5 rating.

Exeggcute -- Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Exeggcute from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Set.  Exeggcute is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 30.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to water type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Exeggcute's Ability is called Propagation and says that you may move an Exeggcute card from your discard pile once per turn as long as you have this Exceggcute card in play.  Besides the Ability, Exeggcute just has one move called Seed Bomb, this move requires two energy cards, one each of grass and colorless, and does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Exeggcute is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Exeggutor, 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 suggest using Exeggcute in a deck.  The main reason I say this is because this card has such a low hp it will get knocked out right away when facing another Pokemon, plus the only move it has requires two energy cards so it will take some time before it can attack.  Propagation is a decent Ability but only if you're using this card with Exeggutor.  So again, do not use this card in a deck if you don't have to, because if you have it in your deck, all you'll be able to do is put it in the active Pokemon spot and use Seed Bomb every turn.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an extremely below average basic Pokemon card.  Even though this card has an Ability and a move, I am still giving this card a really low rating because everything about this card is not good.  Low hp, below average Ability that depends on evolution use, and a move that is average but slow.  So again I would not recommend using this card in a deck if you don't have to.

Beedrill -- Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Beedrill from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Set.  Beedrill is a stage 2, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 120.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a free retreat cost.  Beedrill does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Swift Sting, this move requires one colorless energy card and does 20 damage plus 40 more damage plus confuses and poisons the defending Pokemon if Beedrill has full hp.  Beedrill's second move is called Pierce, this move requires three colorless energy cards and does 60 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Beedrill is a stage 2 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Weedle into play and then evolve it into Kakuna before you can evolve Kakuna into Beedrill, both of those Pokemon are from this set and I've reviewed both of them the last couple of days.  Neither of the first two Pokemon in these line are even average in this set, so I would definitely recommend setting up Beedrill on the bench if possible.  I would actually use this Pokemon line in a grass type deck, but I would definitely limit the amount of Pokemon from this line I have, I would only use a 1-1-1 line and never move Weedle or Kakuna into the active Pokemon spot.  What I would do with this deck is I would have several Pokemon that have free retreat costs so that I could always move Beedrill back to the bench for free, remove all the damage it had on it then use Swift Sting most turns to not only do 60 damage plus confuse and poison that Pokemon.  You're going to want to put three energy cards on Beedrill regardless so that you can do 60 damage per turn no matter if you're using Swift Sting or Pierce.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is an average stage 2 Pokemon card from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon card set.  Compared to Weedle and Kakuna from this line, this card is amazing, but compared to other stage 2 cards out there this card is average.  I don't like that Beedrill has a low hp, but I like that it has two moves, both capable of doing 60 damage and a free retreat cost.  Overall, I would give this entire line a 3 out of 5 rating, even though Weedle and Kakuna are terrible, I still would recommend using this line in your deck, but as few as possible.

Kakuna -- Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Kakuna from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Set.  Kakuna is a stage 1, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 80.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Kakuna does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Hide, which requires one grass energy card and allows you to prevent all effects of an attack by your opponent during their next turn if you get a heads when you flip a coin.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Kakuna is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Weedle into play (I reviewed Weedle from this set yesterday) and then evolve Weedle into Kakuna.  Kakuna does have a stage 2 evolution in Beedrill that you'll probably want to use with this Pokemon line but since I haven't reviewed that card yet, the strategy below will act like Kakuna is the final evolution in this line.  So if you read yesterday's review, you'll know that I thought Weedle wasn't the greatest basic Pokemon card out there and that I wouldn't recommend using one in a deck, well after looking at this card there is no way ever you'd use this card in a deck if you didn't plan on using Beedrill.  I say this because Kakuna cannot do any damage at all, all it does is 50% of the time prevent attacks on it, so if for some reason you move this card to the active Pokemon spot without Beedrill ready, you're either going to have to attach two energy cards to it to retreat it or let it get knocked out.  So, as you can tell, I wouldn't use this card in a deck at all, because the only thing you can do with this card is Hide, which isn't a good strategy for winning any type of battle out there.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is an extremely below average stage 1 Pokemon card. This card is below average in my opinion because it has a low hp, high retreat cost, and only one move that can't do any offense at all.  So judging this card on its own without looking at Beedrill, this card is definitely one of the worst stage 1 Pokemon cards you can have in your deck.  So so far, the line of Weedle and Kakuna get a very poor, 1 out of 5 rating from me.
