Cottonee -- Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Review

Cottonee Guardians Rising Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Cottonee from the Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Set.  Cottonee is a Basic, Fairy type Pokemon card with a HP of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to Metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to Darkness type Pokemon, and a one Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Cottonee does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move on this card is called Continuous Tumble, for one Colorless Energy card this move does 10 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip a coin until you get tails.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Cottonee is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Whimsicott, 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, unless you're using 4 Trick Coin Trainer cards in your deck and have two chances at flipping as many heads as possible, I would not use this card in a deck.  Mainly due to the fact that this card has just one move, and it isn't guaranteed to do damage when used.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Whimsicott, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card from the Guardians Rising set.  Despite having a solid HP, low retreat cost, and the potential to do a fair amount of damage when attacking, like I mentioned above, because the only move that this card has is based off of coin flips, I would look elsewhere for a Basic Pokemon card to use in a Fairy type deck.
