Mega Gardevoir EX -- Steam Siege Pokemon Card Review

Mega Gardevoir EX Steam Siege Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of M Gardevoir EX from the Steam Siege Pokemon Card Set.  Mega Gardevoir EX is a Mega Evolution, EX, fairy and psychic dual type Pokemon card with a HP of 210. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Mega Gardevoir EX does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Despair Ray, for two energy cards, one each of fairy and colorless, this move does 110 damage plus 10 more damage for each benched Pokemon of yours you decide to discard.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
Before I start with the strategy, remember that this card is a Mega Evolution card and an EX card so if you use this card in your deck and it gets knocked out, your opponent gets to take two prize cards instead of one and when you evolve an EX card into its Mega Evolution, your turn ends, you cannot do anything else.  So knowing these things, you'll always want to use Mega Evolution cards with caution, with that being said, you'll always want to use the appropriate Spirit Link trainer card do evolve the EX card into its Mega EX form so you don't have to end your turn.  So knowing how Mega EX cards worth and knowing that Gardevoir EX from this set is a little below average, I would probably pass on using this line as a whole in your deck.  The only time is it feasible to use this line in a deck would be if you have a way to quickly move Pokemon from your discard pile back into your hand.  That way, you could use Mega Gardevoir's Despair Ray every turn, doing above 110 damage, and then the next turn, get those same Pokemon you just discarded back onto the bench, by doing this, you could do major damage every turn, but you could also remove any damage that was previously on those benched Pokemon.  Either way, I can't see using more than a 1-1 line of this Pokemon family in a deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average Mega EX Pokemon card on its own.  I do like that this card can attack fairly quickly and do a good amount of damage, like I mentioned in the strategy section of this post, if you can find a way to quickly move Pokemon from your discard pile back to your bench, this card could be pretty unstoppable.  Together with Gardevoir EX from this set, I would give these two cards a 3 out of 5 rating, average overall.

Mega Gardevoir EX -- Primal Clash Pokemon Card Review

Mega Gardevoir EX Primal Clash Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Mega Gardevoir EX from the Primal Clash Pokemon Card Set.  Mega Gardevoir EX is a Mega Evolution, EX, fairy type Pokemon card with an hp of 210. It has a x2 weakness to metal type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to darkness type Pokemon, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Mega Gardevoir does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Brilliant Arrow, for three energy cards, two colorless and one fairy, this move does 30 damage times the amount of fairy energy attached to all of your Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
Before I start with the strategy, remember that this card is a Mega Evolution card and an EX card so if you use this card in your deck and it gets knocked out, your opponent gets to take two prize cards instead of one and when you evolve an EX card into its Mega Evolution, your turn ends, you cannot do anything else.  So knowing these things, you'll always want to use Mega Evolution cards with caution, with that being said, if you want to do some major damage in a majority fairy type deck, Gardevoir EX and Mega Gardevoir EX are the cards to use.  You can first use Gardevoir EX in the active Pokemon spot doing 100 damage a turn for three energy cards, then, by evolving Gardevoir EX into Mega Gardevoir EX you can do 90 damage a turn right off the bat with Brilliant Arrow, but if you've set up any of your benched Pokemon at all, all you need is one fairy type energy card on one of your Pokemon and this card can do 120 damage a turn.  Just think, get a couple of your Pokemon set up on the bench, or a card that requires three or four fairy energy cards to attack and Brilliant Arrow can then do 180 damage a turn, every single turn.  So this card is extremely powerful and can do at least 90 damage a turn every single turn.  I would highly recommend using this Pokemon line in a deck, at least a 1-1 line of these two cards.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a well above average Mega EX Pokemon card from the Primal Clash set.  This card is average outside of its one move, with a decent HP and normal energy card retreat cost.  But this card truly sets itself apart with its one move doing at least 90 damage a turn and easily double that if any Pokemon are set up on your bench.  So if you're building a fairy type deck and/or looking for some power, look no further than Gardevoir EX and Mega Gardevoir EX from this set, together, I would give these two cards a 5 out of 5 rating.
