Vullaby -- Fates Collide Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Vullaby from the Fates Collide Pokemon Card Set.  Vullaby is a basic, darkness type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to lightning type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to fighting type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Vullaby does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Leer and for one colorless energy card this move paralyzes the defending Pokemon if you get a heads when flipping a coin.  Vullaby's second move is called Cutting Wind and for three energy cards, two colorless and one darkness, this move does 40 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Vullaby is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Mandibuzz, 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, the strategy is quite simple, do not use this card!  I say this because you need three energy cards on this card in order to attack and even then, it isn't smart to put that many energy cards on a card with an HP of only 60, and Cutting Wind does well below average damage anyway.  Also, there is no reason to use this card as a starter type Pokemon and try and paralyze the defending Pokemon every turn to give you time to set up your own Pokemon because that move requires a coin flip, meaning you won't necessarily get a heads every turn.  So unless you just love Vullaby and want to use it in your deck, stay away from this card.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Mandibuzz, this is a well below average card.  I do like that it has two moves and a solid HP, but neither move is very good and it is just way too slow on the attack.  So definitely look elsewhere for Basic, darkness type Pokemon cards to use in your deck.
