Pansage -- Pokemon X and Y Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Pansage from the X and Y Pokemon Card Set.  Pansage is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Pansage does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Vine Whip, for one grass energy cards this move does 10 damage.  Pansage's second move is called Leech Seed, and for two energy cards, one each of grass and colorless, this move does 20 damage, plus it heals 10 damage from Pansage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Pansage is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Simisage, 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 definitely use this card as a starter type card in a grass type deck.  I could see myself using 4 of these cards in my deck and having it be my main basic Pokemon card in my grass type deck.  I like that this card has two moves, both do average damage for average amount of energy, but Leech Seed not only does damage but it heals damage from Pansage, thus making Pansage's 60 hp seem even higher.  So strategy wise, you'll want to get this card into the active Pokemon spot early in the game, and use whichever move you can, Leech Seed being the preferred move.  If you do put four of these cards in a deck, you can easily put a couple of these on your bench and then one on the active Pokemon spot.  Since this card only needs two energy cards to attack, you can start setting up your other Pokemon once you get the two energy cards on this one, then retreat Pansage when the time comes.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an excellent basic Pokemon card to use from the X and Y Pokemon card set.  These card isn't extremely powerful or anything, but as far as basic Pokemon go that could be used as starter cards in your deck, this card is very powerful, and definitely is a great option for any grass type deck out there.
