Chandelure EX -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Chandelure EX Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Chandelure EX from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set.  This is actually the first card I have reviewed from this set, since most cards are reprints in this set, I'll only be reviewing a select number of the cards from the set, and should start reviewing the X and Y cards quite soon.  Chandelure EX is a basic, EX, psychic type Pokemon card with an hp of 170. It has a x2 weakness to darkness type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Chandelure EX does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Cursed Drop, for one psychic energy card this move allows you to put four damage counters on your opponent's Pokemon in any way you like.  Chandelure's second move is called Eerie Glow, this move requires three energy cards, two psychic and one colorless, and does 70 damage plus burns and confuses the defending Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, because Chandelure 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, if you want to build a spread damage type deck, this card is the card you should build that deck around, it will wreak havoc on all opposing decks out there.  So I would put at least 2 of these EX cards in that spread damage type deck, at least part of the deck will be psychic type Pokemon.  Then to start the game, I would hope to get Chandelure into the active Pokemon spot and use Cursed Drop the first couple of turns to get damage on your opponent's benched Pokemon, I wouldn't put any damage counter's on their active Pokemon especially if you're using Chandelure early in the game and it would get one hit KO'd by Eerie Glow.  So I would used Cursed Drop several turns until I want to knock out the defending Pokemon then I would use Eerie Glow.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a very good EX card from the Legendary Treasures set and one that should be in every single spread damage type deck out there.  Both of its moves do way above average damage, it doesn't require many energy cards to attack, and Chandelure has an excellent hp and fairly low retreat cost.  So you cannot go wrong by using this card in your deck!
