Rocket’s Scizor ex – EX Team Rocket Returns Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Rocket’s Scizor ex from the EX Team Rocket Returns set. This is a stage 1, dark type Pokemon card, with an hp of 120. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -30 resistance to grass type Pokemon and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Scizor’s Poke-Body is called Dual Armor and says that as long as Scizor has any metal energy cards attached to it is both metal and darkness type. Besides the Poke-Body, Scizor has just one move called Rotating Claws and for three colorless energy cards does 50 damage. Also you may discard an energy card attached to Scizor ex and search your discard pile for a different energy card and attach it to Scizor.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This is the first stage 1 ex card that I’ve reviewed from this set and it is a bit better than the basic ones I’ve been reviewing. First off I’d like to point out the importance of having this card be two types, that way you can be twice as strong against double the amount of Pokemon, so I would use Rotating Claws and discard a grass energy card attached to Scizor and switch it with a metal energy card if I could. I’ll be reviewing Scyther ex tomorrow so you’ll know why you’d have a grass energy card attached to this card tomorrow. Other than getting the necessary energy types on Scizor you’ll just want to use Rotating Claws every turn you can. I like the artwork on this card but not as much as some others from this set, Scizor is drawn at a weird angle but I like the icicle type background colors making Scizor look extremely tough for being in a frozen cave or something like that. I do have this ex card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $13, on Professor-Oak it sells for $15 and $37.49 on PokeOrder.

Rocket’s Moltres ex – EX Team Rocket Returns Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Rocket’s Moltres ex from the EX Team Rocket Returns set. This is a basic, dark type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Moltres’s Poke-Body is called Dark Lift and it says that if Moltres has any darkness energy cards attached to it, the retreat cost of Moltres is free. Besides the Poke-Body, Moltres has two moves, the first move is called Fire Dance and for two energy cards, one fire and one colorless, it does 30 damage and allows you to search your discard pile for a fire energy card and attach it to one of your Pokemon. Moltres’s second move is called Combustion which does 50 damage for three energy cards, two fire and one colorless.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This is one of the weaker ex cards I’ve reviewed from this set so far, it can’t do much for damage, but this is one time I would definitely consider attaching a darkness energy card to Moltres so you could retreat it at will, I would just keep this card on my bench and have two energy cards attached to it, one fire and one darkness, and then if one of my Pokemon gets knocked out, put Moltres in, use Fire Dance once, attach an energy card with this move to one of my benched Pokemon, and the next turn retreat Moltres for one of my benched Pokemon. Once again I like the artwork of this card, I like how sizzling Moltres looks and the red and yellow colors of the red-hot flames coming off of Moltres. The background colors of green, yellow, and black make Moltres look even more magnificent and makes the card that much cooler. Unfortunately I don’t have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $15, on Professor-Oak it sells for $15 and $26.24 on PokeOrder.

Rocket’s Mewtwo ex – EX Team Rocket Returns Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Rocket’s Mewtwo ex from the EX Team Rocket Returns set. This is a basic, dark type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Mewtwo doesn’t have a Poke-Body or Poke-Power but it does have three moves, the first move is called Darkness Switch which takes one psychic energy card and says that you must discard an energy card when using this move, once you discard the energy card you may switch all the damage counters on Mewtwo with the defending Pokemon. Mewtwo’s second move is called Hypnoblast which takes three energy cards, one psychic and two colorless, and does 40 damage and if you get a heads when you flip a coin the defending Pokemon is asleep. Mewtwo’s third move is called Psyburn and for four energy cards, three colorless and one psychic does 70 damage.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This is the first ex card from this set that doesn’t have a one colorless energy card retreat cost, but it is also the first card from this set to have three moves. All three moves Mewtwo has are pretty good but the card is a little slow at first unless you have a ton of damage on Mewtwo and want to use Darkness Switch to remove the energy from Metwo, but if you do use this move you have to discard an energy card which will make Mewtwo slower yet. I do like that this card requires mostly colorless energy cards so you can mix this card easily into any deck and once you get four energy cards on Mewtwo it can consistently do 70 damage every turn. The only bad thing about this card is that it has a fairly low hp for being slow and if this card gets knocked out the opponent will get to take two prize cards instead of one. This is another amazing looking ex card in my opinion. I really like the colors and the swirls of the background of the picture and this card would have definitely been in my top 10 favorite ex card video if I had it in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $30, on Professor-Oak it sells for $30.64 and is $64.99 on PokeOrder.

Rocket’s Hitmonchan ex – EX Team Rocket Returns Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Rocket’s Hitmonchan ex from the EX Team Rocket Returns set. This is a basic, dark type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Hitmonchan’s Poke-Body is called Strike Back and says that any time Hitmonchan is attacked put 2 damage counters on that attacking Pokemon. Besides the Poke-Body, Hitmonchan has two moves, the first move is called Mach Punch and does 10 damage to one of your opponent’s Pokemon for one fighting energy card. Hitmonchan’s second move is called Magnum Punch which does 60 damage for the standard three energy cards, two fighting and one colorless.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:

Once again this card is quite similar to the previous ex cards from this set with the 100 hp, same retreat cost, and same move set, 2 moves and one Poke-Body. This card really is a fighting type Pokemon card since it only requires fighting energy cards and unlike the last two ex cards from this set, Hitmonchan’s Poke-Body can be used regardless if you have a darkness energy card attached to it or not. I like how Hitmonchan can be thrown out there right away with little or no energy attached to it and still be able to do at least 20 damage every turn because of its Poke-Body. And if you use Magnum Punch a few times you should knock out at least one Pokemon every time you play this card during a game. This card has great artwork and I love how the moon is reflected in the background of the picture, it reminds me of the Umbreon Holo I have from the Neo Discovery set. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $8, on Professor-Oak it sells for $15.30 and $44.99 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:

Rocket’s Entei ex – EX Team Rocket Returns Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Rocket’s Entei ex from the EX Team Rocket Returns set. This is a basic, dark type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Articuno’s Poke-Body is called Dark Condition and says that as long as Entei has a darkness energy card attached to it, Entei has no weaknesses. Besides the Poke-Body, Articuno has two moves, the first move is called Energy Link which does 10 damage for one colorless energy card and allows you to search your discard pile for an energy card and attach it to Entei. Entei’s second move is called Volcanic Ash and for three energy cards, one colorless and two fire, it does 60 damage to one of your opponent’s Pokemon that you choose. However before you can use this move you must discard two energy cards attached to Entei.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Overall, this card is pretty similar to the Articuno ex card I reviewed yesterday, both its Poke-Body and first moves are quite similar and this card is also a dark type card but doesn’t require any darkness type energy cards to attack. This is the way all the ex cards from this set will operate. Strategy-wise, if you were to use this card you’d want to put it in a fire type deck and try to have spread damage type cards in the deck so you could put Entei in and use Volcanic Ash and hopefully knock out one of your opponent’s benched Pokemon that has some previous damage on it. I have this card in my collection, I have two or three of these to be exact. I like the artwork on this card but not as much as others from this set.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $20, on Professor-Oak it sells for $25 and $34.99 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
The other ex cards from this set are: Rocket’s Articuno, Rocket’s Hitmonchan, Rocket’s Mewtwo, Rocket’s Moltres, Rocket’s Scizor, Rocket’s Scyther, Rocket’s Sneasel, Rocket’s Snorlax, Rocket’s Suicune, Rocket’s Zapdos.

Rocket’s Articuno ex – EX Team Rocket Returns Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Rocket’s Articuno ex from the EX Team Rocket Returns set. This is a basic, dark type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, no resistance type and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Articuno’s Poke-Body is called Darkness Veil and says that as long as Articuno has a darkness energy card attached to it, all effects of an attack on Articuno are prevented besides damage. Besides the Poke-Body, Articuno has two moves, the first move is called Freeze Solid which does 10 damage for one colorless energy card, and when you use this move you can search your discard pile for one water energy card and attach it to Articuno. Articuno’s second move is called Ice Wing which does 50 damage for three energy cards, two water and one colorless.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I really like all the artwork on the ex cards from this set. I like the dark tones and how menacing all of the Pokemon look in their pictures. One thing you’ll have to be aware of if you are trying to use this card is that even though it is dark type, it doesn’t require any darkness energy cards to attack unless you want to attach one to use its Poke-Body. I do have this card in my collection but I like these cards so much it makes me want to go out and buy another ex Team Rocket Returns booster box. Move-wise, this card isn’t the greatest, neither of its moves can do much but at least the card is somewhat quick if you use Freeze Solid first you will be able to use Ice Wing in two turns instead of three.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $16, on Professor-Oak it sells for $27.56 and $24.99 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:

Zapdos ex – EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Zapdos ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is the third and final of the three legendary birds from this set and the last ex card from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. Zapdos is a basic, electric type Pokemon card, with an hp of 110. It has a x2 weakness to electric type Pokemon, no resistance type and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Zados's Poke-Power is the same as both Moltres's and Articuno's and is called Legendary Ascent and says that when you place Zapdos ex from your hand to your bench you may switch it with your active Pokemon for free and move any electric energy cards attached to your active Pokemon to Zapdos. Besides the Poke-Power, Zapdos has one move called Electron Crush which takes three energy cards, two electric and one colorless, and does 50 damage plus 20 more damage if you choose to discard an energy card from Zapdos.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
For the third time, I really like the artwork of this card and how the ex pattern is reflected over the entirety of the card. I also like the dark look Zapdos has in the picture of the card. This card is very similar to the other two legendary bird ex cards I have reviewed. After reviewing all three, I have come to the conclusion that all three of the ex cards would have been great in battle and I would have included them in any deck I made with their respected types. I do have this ex card in my collection and I am very happy to have all three legendary birds from this set in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $8, on Professor-Oak it sells for $15.30 and $44.99 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:

Moltres ex – EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Moltres ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a basic, fire type Pokemon card, with an hp of 110. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Moltres's Poke-Power is called Legendary Ascent and says that when you place Moltres ex from your hand to your bench you may switch it with your active Pokemon for free and move any fire energy cards attached to your active Pokemon to Moltres. Besides the Poke-Power, Moltres has one move called Crushing Flames which does 60 damage for three energy cards, one colorless and two fire. Besides doing the damage, like yesterday, you may choose to discard an energy card attached to Moltres, if you do, your opponent's active Pokemon is confused.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Once again I really like the artwork of this card and how the ex pattern is reflected over the entirety of the card. This card is quite similar to Articuno ex from yesterday so if I were to battle with these cards I would build a dual type deck, water and fire and use both of these cards in the deck. This card is great to come into the game when a Pokemon has been stocked up with energy cards and is about the feint, you can then put Moltres into play and switch that dying Pokemon out of the active Pokemon spot and quickly attach energy cards to Moltres. I have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $6, on Professor-Oak it sells for $10.80 and $44.99 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
The other ex cards from this set are: Blastoise, Charizard, Clefable, Electrode, Gengar, Gyarados, Mr. Mime x2, Venusaur, Articuno, and Zapdos.

Articuno ex – EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Articuno ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 110. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, no resistance type and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Articuno's Poke-Power is called Legendary Ascent and says that when you place Articuno ex from your hand to your bench you may switch it with your active Pokemon for free and move any water energy cards attached to your active Pokemon to Articuno. Besides the Poke-Power, Articuno has one move called Cold Crush which does 50 damage for three energy cards, one colorless and two water. Besides doing the damage, you can choose to discard an energy card from Articuno, if you choose to do this, your opponent must discard an energy card attached to their active Pokemon as well.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I really like the artwork of all three legendary birds I will be reviewing in the next few days, they have similar artwork to the Regi's from EX Hidden Legends. Ryo Ueda did a great job on the artwork and I always liked having this card in my EX collection because it looked so cool. Strategy-wise, this card is extremely straight-forward since it only has one move, however I wouldn't put in on the bench until your active Pokemon is about to get knocked out, that way you can put Articuno into play and move it into the active Pokemon spot immediately, thus preventing one of your Pokemon from feinting.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $8, on Professor-Oak it sells for $11.40 and $37.49 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:
The other ex cards from this set are: Blastoise, Charizard, Clefable, Electrode, Gengar, Gyarados, Mr. Mime x2, Venusaur, Moltres, and Zapdos.

Venusaur ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Venusaur ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 2, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to both fire and psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Venusaur's Poke-Power called Energy Trans says that as often as you like during your turn you may move a grass energy card attached from one of your Pokemon to another. Besides the Poke-Power, Venusaur has two moves, the first move is called Pollen Hazard which does 20 damage for three energy cards, two colorless and one grass, and makes the defending Pokemon poisoned, burned, and confused. Venusaur's second move is called Solarbeam which takes five energy cards, three grass and two colorless, and does 90 damage.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
You don't often see Pokemon cards that can not only do damage with a move but also inflict three special conditions with that same move. So if you could somehow play this card I would recommend using Pollen Hazard first and then Solarbeam the next turn. I really like the artwork on this card, I like how it makes Venusaur look monstrous, which it is, and I also like how it looks like Venusaur is gathering sunlight for its Solarbeam move. I do have this card in my collection and I know I pulled it out of a pack when I was opening EX FireRed and LeafGreen packs when they first came out.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $20, on Professor-Oak it sells for $32.41 and $52.49 on PokeOrder.

Mr. Mime EX #111/112 -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Mr. Mime ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is the second of two Mr. Mime ex card reviews from this set. This is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 80. Like the card from yesterday, this card has no weakness or resistance, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Mr. Mime's Poke-Body is called Magic Evens and does the same thing as the Poke-Body from yesterday's card but this one prevents all damage done to Mr. Mime with even increments. Like yesterday, Mr. Mime's only move is called Breakdown which again takes two energy cards, one each of psychic and colorless, and allows you to put the number of damage counters on your opponent's active Pokemon equal to the amount of cards in your opponent's hand.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Like yesterday, this card would have been a staple of any psychic type deck I would have made in the ex era. I would combine this Mr. Mime ex with the Mr. Mime ex from yesterday and then rotate these cards back and forth from bench to active Pokemon spot depending on how much damage the defending Pokemon could do. I like the artwork on this card better than yesterday's card. The main reason is Mr. Mime doesn't look so weird and I like the red color better than the green color from yesterday. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $4, on Professor-Oak it sells for $9 and $29.99 on PokeOrder.

Mr. Mime EX #110/112 -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Mr. Mime ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is the first of two consecutive Mr. Mime card reviews from this set. This is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card with an hp of 80. It has no weakness or resistance, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Mr. Mime's Poke-Body is called Magic Odds and says that if any odd amount of damage is done to Mr. Mime that damage is prevented from Mr. Mime. Mr. Mime's only move is called Breakdown which takes two energy cards, one each of psychic and colorless and lets you put damage counters on the defending Pokemon equal to the amount of cards in your opponent's hand.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This ex card would have been a staple of any psychic type deck I would have made back in the ex era. I love how this card can't take any damage that is odd, which gives you at least a 50 percent chance of not being attacked every turn. I also like Mr. Mime's move called Breakdown because not only does it make your opponent play cards faster than they want but it damages your opponent's Pokemon the more cards they have in their hand and Mr. Mime can attack every turn and have the possibility of doing major damage. The artwork on this card is fitting for Mr. Mime, the card looks like a psychic Pokemon card and something that is mysterious. I personally don't like the artwork though, Mr. Mime just looks too strange for me. I have this ex card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $4, on Professor-Oak it sells for $9 and $14.99 on PokeOrder.

Gyarados ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Gyarados ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 1, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 130. It has a x2 weakness to electric type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Gyarados doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Twister which does 40 damage for two energy cards, one each of water and colorless, and besides doing the damage, you may flip two coins, for each heads you may remove one energy card from the defending Pokemon, however if you flip two coins this move does nothing. Gyarados's second move is called Dragon Rage which does 100 damage for five energy cards, two water and three colorless.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This card definitely reminds me of Blastoise ex from this set, both are water type cards and both look really cool with the dark blue colors on the card. Other than the artwork being great, this card isn't too great attack-wise, it can do 100 damage but you'll have to wait awhile and it has a little less hp than other Pokemon with attacks this high because Gyarados is a stage 1 Pokemon not stage 2. I actually don't think I have this ex card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $10, on Professor-Oak it sells for $25.00 and $44.99 on PokeOrder.

Other ex Pokemon Cards in this set:

Gengar ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Gengar ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 2, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to both psychic and dark types, a -30 resistance to fighting and colorless types, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Gengar doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Poltergeist and for two energy cards, one each of psychic and colorless, it does 40 damage plus 10 more damage for each trainer card your opponent has in their hand. Gengar's second move is called Prize Count and for three energy cards, two psychic and one colorless, it does 60 damage plus 40 more damage if you have more prize cards left than your opponent.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Even though this card isn't playable in current formats I like how Poltergeist gives you a peak at your opponent's hand so you can know their strategy pretty early on and not only will you know your strategy but if you start losing, Gengar can do 100 damage every turn until you are tied or winning. Similar to other ex cards from this site, I like the background of this card but I don't like the actual artwork of Gengar, it looks too strange to me, its eyes are too big. I have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $11, on Professor-Oak it sells for $20.84 and $44.99 on PokeOrder.

Electrode ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Electrode ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 1, electric type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Electrode's Poke-Power is called Extra Energy Bomb which says that you can choose once during your turn do discard Electrode and all cards attached to it (basically knocking out Electrode, thus your opponent is able to take a prize card), once Electrode is discarded you may search the discard pile for five energy cards and attach them to any of your Pokemon in any way you like. Besides the Poke-Power, Electrode has one move called Crush and Burn which takes two energy cards, one each of electric and colorless, and does 30 damage plus 20 more damage for each energy card you choose to discard from any of your Pokemon in play.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
The EX FireRed and LeafGreen set had to have some of the best ex cards for competitive play, Electrode ex would have been very useful in play because of its Poke-Power and its ability to quickly set up a Pokemon that needs a lot of energy cards to attack. So if you're able to use this card, you'll want to use Crush and Burn as long as possible and then either retreat Electrode or choose to knock it out and attach 5 energy cards from your discard pile to one or many of your Pokemon. The artwork on this card is good and bad in my opinion, I don't look the look on Electrode's face, it looks too shifty, I do like the lightning bolts in the background though.

Clefable ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Clefable ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 1, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Clefable doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Metronome and for two colorless energy cards Clefable copies one of your opponent's active Pokemon's moves and does that attack. Clefable's second move is called Moon Impact and for two colorless energy cards it does 40 damage.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This would be an absolutely amazing card to take down a card like the Charizard ex card I reviewed yesterday, you could put this card in any deck since it is a colorless card and then put it on your bench, attach two energy cards to it, and if one of your Pokemon gets knocked out or if you choose to retreat one of your Pokemon against Charizard ex, you can put Clefable ex in, use Metronome and do 200 damage and knock out Charizard or any other powerful Pokemon you face in one move. Besides being amazing with Metronome, I really like the artwork of this card, I like how silver and monochromatic this card is, and I especially like the silver swirls in the holographic pattern on the card. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $6, on Professor-Oak it sells for $12.00 and $22.49 on PokeOrder.

Charizard ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Charizard ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 2, fire type Pokemon card, with an hp of 160. It has a x2 weakness to both water and electric type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Charizard's Poke-Body called Energy Flame says that all energy cards attached to Charizard are fire energy type. Besides the Poke-Body, Charizard has two moves, the first move is called Slash which does 50 damage for three colorless energy cards. The second move is called Burn Down and does 200 damage for 5 fire energy cards, however after using this move you must discard 5 fire energy cards attached to Charizard.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
This card has the most powerful base damage in the TCG today, the 200 damage that Burn Down does is incredible, however you'll have to wait a long time to be able to use it and once you use it you'll have to wait a long time again to use it. I would recommend putting 10 energy cards on this, if you have the time and extra energy cards in your deck, that way you'd be able to use Burn Down two turns in a row and hopefully win the game after that. The artwork on this card is okay, even though this is one of my favorite cards, I like it more for the fact that Charizard is my favorite Pokemon than because of the artwork. Charizard looks really weird if you look close at the card, Charizard's body looks mutilated. But with that being said this was definitely a powerful ex card and like I said one of my favorite ex cards of all time. I have never pulled this card from a pack but I have two of these in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $100, on Professor-Oak it sells for $181.94 and $229.99 on PokeOrder.

Blastoise ex -- EX FireRed and LeafGreen Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Blastoise ex from the EX FireRed and LeafGreen set. This is a stage 2, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to electric type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Blastoise's Poke-Power is called Energy Rain and says that as often as you like during your turn you may move a water energy card to your hand and put it on one of your Pokemon, if you do this, you have to put 1 damage counter on the Pokemon you attach an energy card to. Besides the Poke-Power, Blastoise ex only has one move called Hyper Whirlpool which takes four energy cards, three water and one colorless, and does 80 damage. Besides doing the damage each heads you get when you flip a coin until you get tails allows you to have your opponent discard an energy card attached to their active Pokemon.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I know almost all leagues don't allow ex cards to be played and if they were allowed to be played I probably wouldn't use this card, it only has the one move and it takes too long to set this Pokemon up to actual use it. As a collector this card looks very cool, Blastoise definitely looks like it is a dark Blastoise, the picture done by Kikaru Koike uses very dark blues and silvers to create an amazing looking Blastoise. I think the artwork alone contributes to the fact that this card is a little more expensive price wise than some of the other ex cards I've been reviewing. I do have this card in my collection, I actually really wanted to get a Charizard ex so when these packs first came out I bought as many as I could afford and I pulled a Venusaur and Blastoise ex but never the Charizard. But I was lucky to get those two ex cards because there are a ton of ex cards in this set, some a lot better than others.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $20, on Professor-Oak it sells for $31.90 and $44.99 on PokeOrder.

Wigglytuff ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Wigglytuff ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a stage 1, colorless type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Wigglytuff doesn’t have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Sleepy Song which takes two colorless energy cards, does 30 damage and puts the defending Pokemon to sleep. Wigglytuff’s second move is called Do the Wave and for three colorless energy cards it does 30 damage plus 10 more damage for each of your benched Pokemon.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I like the overall color scheme on this card, it has a rainbow look to the entire card which I really like the looks of. Wigglytuff as always looks pretty clueless in the picture but that is nothing new. Ryo Ueda did an excellent job with this card. Since Wigglytuff has a low retreat cost you could always move it into play, make the defending Pokemon asleep and then depending on if you have a full bench or not use Do the Wave or retreat it and attack with one of your other Pokemon, possibly one that does spread damage so it doesn’t knock out the defending Pokemon and that defending Pokemon stays asleep.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $4, on Professor-Oak it sells for $10.80 and $8.99 on PokeOrder.

Vileplume ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Vileplume ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a stage 2, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 140. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Vileplume’s Poke-Body is called Block Dust which says that as long as Vileplume is your active Pokemon your opponent can’t play any trainer cards. Besides the Poke-Body, Vileplume has one move called Special Formula which takes three energy cards, two colorless and one grass, and does 50 damage. Besides doing the damage, you may flip a coin when executing this move, if you get a heads, the defending Pokemon is put to sleep and poisoned, if you get a tails, the defending Pokemon is confused.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Even though I really liked the ex designs of the three Regi’s, it is nice to get back to the familiar bubble pattern on the ex cards. The artwork is pretty simple on this card and I like the simplicity of it with the solid green background behind Vileplume. Ryo Ueda did a very well job on this card. Battle wise, this card would be perfect in a deck that annoys the defending player, throw this card in with other cards that inflict special conditions and your opponent will be begging you to ease up on them within a few minutes of play.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $6, on Professor-Oak it sells for $15.32 and $18.74 on PokeOrder.

Registeel ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Registeel ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a basic, metal type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -30 resistance to grass type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Registeel’s Poke-Body is called Exoskeleton which says that any attacks done to Registeel are reduced by 10. Besides the Poke-Body, Registeel has one move called Steel Wave which takes two metal type energy cards and one colorless energy card and does 50 damage plus it does 20 damage to each of your opponent’s benched Pokemon.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Once again I really like the design of this card and the artwork as well. I like the coloring of the artwork very well and the lighting on Registeel makes you wonder if it is holding something in its hand that you can’t see. This card would be perfect to play with Metagross ex since that card can do 40 damage to all your opponent’s benched Pokemon one at a time and then this card would do 20 damage to all your opponent’s Pokemon at once possibly knocking out a few of them in a turn or two. If you were to use this card for some reason make sure to include it in a spread damage type deck.

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Regirock 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. Regirock’s Poke-Body is called Healing Stone and says that any time between turns you may remove one damage counter from Regirock. Besides the Poke-Body, Regirock has one move called Tonnage which takes three energy cards, two fighting and one colorless, and does 60 damage plus 20 more damage if you want to do 30 damage to Regirock.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
Like Regice ex from yesterday, I like the ex design of this card. Once again, I like the background of the actually artwork but the Pokemon is too jumbled in the picture for my liking. Plus, all the Regi’s are weird looking Pokemon to begin with. Even if I could play this card today, I don’t know if I would, there really isn’t anything special about this card and with only 100 hp, I don’t know if I’d ever want to do 30 damage to Regirock just to do 20 more damage to the defending Pokemon. The only good thing about this card is its Poke-Body which can remove 10 damage per turn from Regirock.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $4, on Professor-Oak it sells for $15.12 and is sold out on PokeOrder.

Regice ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Regice ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a basic, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Regice’s Poke-Body is called Crystal Body and says that all effects of attacks except for damage are prevented on Regice. Besides the Poke-Body, Regice’s only move is called Freeze Lock which takes three energy cards, two water and one colorless and does 60 damage and if you get a heads when you flip a coin your opponent can’t attach any energy cards to their Pokemon during their next turn.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
The first thing I want to say about this card is I really like the design of the card. I like how the ex pattern is full of shimmering polygons all over the card, I wish all ex cards looked like this. The artwork of this card is so-so, I like the background colors of the card, but Regice looks like a total mess, it looks as if Regice just got attacked and is exploding in the picture. Besides the artwork, this is a pretty simple card that could be useful for one spot in a water type deck since it can’t be affected by special conditions and can dole out a hefty 60 damage.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $6, on Professor-Oak it sells for $19.14 and $22.49 on PokeOrder.

Ninetales ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Ninetales ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a stage 1, fire type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Ninetales doesn’t have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Intense Glare and for one colorless energy card it makes your opponent switch their active Pokemon with one of their benched Pokemon, when this benched Pokemon is put into the active Pokemon spot that Pokemon is now burned and confused. Ninetales second move is called Fire Blast and for four energy cards, three colorless and one fire it does 100 damage, after performing the attack, Ninetales must discard one fire energy card from it.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I’m surprised at how quickly the ex cards in this set are improving, Metagross yesterday and Ninetales today both can do quite a bit of damage, much more than Kyogre and Groudon from this set. I would even consider in an unlimited format to make a metal and fire type deck just so I could combine Ninetales and Metagross ex, I would put 40 damage on as many Pokemon of my opponent’s as possible with Metagross then I would put Ninetales in and use Fire Blast to knock that Pokemon out and then the next turn if I couldn’t attack with Fire Blast again I would just use Intense Glare. I really like the artwork on this card with was done by Rya Ueda, I like the red glare of Ninetales eyes, it looks like it is just about to attack. I know I have this ex card in my collection.

Metagross ex – EX Hidden Legends Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Metagross ex from the EX Hidden Legends set. This is a stage 2, metal type Pokemon card with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to both fire and fighting type Pokemon, a -30 resistance to grass type Pokemon, and a four colorless energy card retreat cost. Metagross doesn’t have a Poke-Body or Poke-Power but it does have two moves, the first move is called Metal Reversal which takes two energy cards, one each of colorless and metal and does 40 damage to the defending Pokemon, before attacking you may choose to attack the defending Pokemon or have your opponent put in a different Pokemon and attack that Pokemon instead. Metagross’ second move is called Extra Comet Punch which takes four energy cards, two each of metal and colorless and does 50 damage, the next turn Extra Comet Punch does 100 damage instead of 50.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
If this card were playable today I would definitely use it. I really like the move Extra Comet Punch being able to do 150 damage every two turns. You just have to be patient and set up Metagross on your bench, as soon as it gets four energy cards on it put it in the active Pokemon spot and start knocking out your opponent’s Pokemon. This card also wouldn’t be bad in a spread damage type deck because you can use Metal Reversal numerous times to get 40 damage on almost all your opponent’s Pokemon and then put in a Pokemon card that does let’s say 20 damage to all of your opponent’s benched Pokemon. The artwork on this card is okay, I like the background colors but I don’t like how Metagross is basically facing you straight on, not at an angle at all, the artwork makes Metagross look too simple. I do have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:

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:

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.

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:

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.

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

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Sceptile ex from the EX Team Magma vs. Team Aqua set. This is a stage 2, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to both fire and grass type Pokemon, a -30 resistance to water type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Sceptile has three moves, the first move is called Green Heal and for one grass energy card you may remove 4 damage counters that have at least one grass energy card attached to them. Sceptile's second move is called Poison Ring which takes three energy cards, two colorless and one grass, and does 40 damage and makes the defending Pokemon poisoned and unable to retreat until after their next turn. Sceptile's third and final move is called Slashing Strike which takes five energy cards, three colorless and two grass and does 100 damage. However Sceptile can't use this move two turns in a row.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I like that this card has a plethora of moves to choose from, these moves can inflict massive damage, poison Pokemon, and heal your own Pokemon. If you have patience with this card you can really do some damage using Slashing Strike one turn, then healing all your grass Pokemon the next turn with Green Heal. The artwork on this card which is done by Hikaru Koike is interesting. I really like th background and how part of Sceptile's body blends right into it, but I don't like how Sceptile looks, it looks extremely confused and not powerful or intimidating at all. I don't think I have this ex card in my collection.

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

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Raikou ex from the EX Team Magma vs. Team Aqua set. This is a basic, electric type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Raikou doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Dazzle Blast and for one electric energy card does 10 damage and it also confuses the defending Pokemon if you get a heads when you flip a coin. Raikou's other move is called Lightning Tackle which does 70 damage for three energy cards, two electric and one colorless, however if you get a tails when you flip a coin this move does 20 damage to Raikou.

PrimetimePokemon's Take:
I really liked yesterday's Legendary Dog artwork done by Rya Ueda, but today I do not like Raikou's artwork at all, the card looks too cartoony to me, and too dreamy. This card doesn't make Raikou seem very powerful at all. There is just too much going on in the picture for me to like this card. I do like however how this card can do 70 damage every turn no matter what, at the time this card had to have been quite powerful with Lightning Tackle. I don't think I have this card in my collection.

Pokemon Card Price:
This card sells on eBay for around $8, on Professor-Oak it sells for $25.11 and on PokeOrder it goes for $35.99. So even though I don't think this card looks the best, the price is one of the higher ones from this set.

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

Tomorrow's Pokemon Card:
So thanks for reading today's Pokemon card review of Raikou ex from the EX Team Magma vs. Team Aqua set, stay tuned for tomorrow's card review of Sceptile ex from the same set.
