Goomy -- Guardians Rising Pokemon Card Review

Goomy Guardians Rising Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Goomy from the Guardians Rising set.  Goomy is a Basic, Dragon type Pokemon card with a HP of 50.  It has a x2 weakness to Fairy type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Goomy does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move on this card is called Bubble, for one Colorless Energy card, this move Paralyzes the defending Pokemon if you get a heads when flipping a coin.  Goomy's second move is called Tackle, for two Energy cards, one each of Water and Fairy, this move does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Goomy is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Sliggoo, and a Stage 2 evolution in Goodra, which I'll be reviewing the next couple of days, you'll more than likely want to use some of those Pokemon with this card, however, since I have not reviewed any of those cards yet, I will just act like Goomy does not have any evolution forms and that it will be used on its own.  On its own, I would not recommend using this card in a deck.  Besides having a low HP, this card is slow to damage when attacking, and even if you decide to use Bubble on this card, it is based off of a coin flip and even if you get a heads all it does is prevents the defending Pokemon from attacking during your opponent's next turn.  So unless you are specifically building a Water and Fairy type deck, there is absolutely no reason to use this card.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a below average Basic Pokemon card from the Guardians Rising set.  This card does have some positives, like two moves, one inflicting a special condition and the other doing damage, but because this card requires two distinct type of Energy cards and has a low HP, I would look elsewhere for a Basic Pokemon card to use in your deck.
