Noibat 131/162 -- BREAKthrough Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Noibat from the BREAKthrough Pokemon Card Set.  This is the first of two consecutive Noibat cards I'll be reviewing from this set.  This Noibat is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to fighting type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Noibat does not have an Ability and it only has one move, which is called Blot and for one colorless energy card does 10 damage plus heals 10 damage from itself.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Noibat is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Noivern, which I've reviewed in the past, and given a 3 out of 5 rating, stating that although it can do major damage every turn, it requires three distinct energy types to attack plus has to discard an energy when attacking, so unless building a psychic and darkness type deck, the card isn't worth using, I will first review this card on its own, and then talk about using it with Noivern, then tomorrow compare the two Noibat cards in this set.  So, on its own, this Noibat card would be a decent starter type Pokemon, other than having a low HP, this card would be find to use in the starter spot to start the game, doing 10 damage a turn and healing 10 damage from itself as well.  So if you're facing weaker Pokemon, Noibat's 50 HP won't be an issue.  So if you're in a bind, you could definitely use this card on its own, but I probably wouldn't.  This card would work fine with Noivern from this set, giving it a nice start to the line.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  Just looking at this card on its own, I would give this card a slightly below average rating, the main reason for this low rating is its low HP, and the fact that it can do a maximum of 10 damage per turn.  But overall, this card isn't terrible and could be used in a deck if you really need it.
