Virizion EX Full Art -- Plasma Blast Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Virizion EX Full Art from the Plasma Blast Pokemon Card Set.  Virizion is a basic, EX, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 170. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to water type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Virizion EX's Ability is called Verdant Wind and says that each of your Pokemon that have at least one grass energy attached to them cannot be affected by a special condition.  Besides the Ability, Virizion just has one move called Emerald Stash, this move requires two energy cards, one colorless and one grass, and does 50 damage plus it allows you to search your deck for two grass energy cards and attach them to one of your benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, because Virizion EX is a basic Pokemon card you won't need to use any other cards with this card.  But remember, because this card is an EX card, if this card is knocked out, two prize cards are taken instead of one.  So knowing this, I would put as many Virizion EX Full Art cards into a deck as you care to muster, I would use this card as my starter type Pokemon, move Virizion into the active Pokemon spot to start the game, attach two energy cards to it and use Emerald Stash every turn.  Not only will you be able to quickly set up your benched Pokemon, but you should be able to knock out most of your opponent's basic Pokemon in two turns or less.  I would keep using Virizion until you have some of your other Pokemon set up and then retreat Virizion, keeping it on the bench to utilize its ability.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an excellent EX Pokemon card.  I am giving this EX card my top rating and I definitely think at least one of these cards should be in every single grass type deck out there.  Even though Virizion EX can only do 50 damage a turn, what really matters is that this card greatly aids your entire team, by preventing special conditions being placed on them and by giving them energy cards every single turn.  So for this being the first EX card I have reviewed from this set, this card leaves me very happy with how the EX cards are looking in the Plasma Blast set.
