Seismitoad -- BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Seismitoad from the BREAKpoint Pokemon Card Set.  Seismitoad is a stage 2, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 150.  It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost.  Seismitoad does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Siphon Off, for one water energy card this move allows you to attach three water energy cards from your discard pile to Seismitoad.  Seismitoad's second move is called Shaky Fall and for four water energy cards this move does 90 damage, plus it confuses the defending Pokemon and makes them unable to retreat during their next turn.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Seismitoad is a stage 2 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Tympole into play and then evolve it into Palpitoad before you can evolve Palpitoad into Seismitoad, both of those Pokemon are from this set and I've reviewed both of them the last two days.  If you've read my reviews of those cards you'll know that I thought both Pokemon were average overall, both had solid moves and average HP, so they could easily be used on their own without Seismitoad.  So knowing this about the first two Pokemon in this line and looking at this Seismitoad card, this card fits in well with the first two Pokemon in this line, having a solid HP, and two good moves.  What I really like about this card is that you can set this line up on the bench and then move Seismitoad into the active Pokemon spot with only one energy card on it, use Siphon Off one turn, and be set up to use Shaky Fall the next, doing massive damage.  So if I were building a water type deck that had a Pokemon that discarded a lot of water energy or if I knew that there was a good likelihood of a lot of water energy cards being in the discard pile, this is a card I would definitely use.  So if you're building a water type deck, I would consider using a 1-1-1 line of this entire line and be perfectly okay with putting this line into the active Pokemon spot in any form of evolution.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is an average Stage 2 Pokemon card from the BREAKpoint set.  I think there aren't any negatives about this card, it has a solid HP, and two good moves that work very well together.  The only reason I'm not giving this card any higher than an average rating is that it is slow on the attack if you can't get energy cards from your discard pile, but once you do have four energy cards on Seismitoad it can do a good amount of damage.  Altogether I would give this line a 3 out of 5 rating, the same rating I gave to each of these Pokemon individually.

Seismitoad -- Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Seismitoad from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card Set.  Seismitoad is a stage 2, water type Pokemon card, with an hp of 140.  It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost.  Seismitoad does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Seismic Punch, this move requires two colorless energy cards and does 30 damage, plus it does 30 damage to all Pokemon in play.  Besides Seismic Punch, Seismitoad's other move is called Splashing Turn, this move requires four energy cards, two each of colorless and water and does 80 damage, however after using this move you must switch Seismitoad with one of your benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Seismitoad is a stage 2 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Tympole into play and then evolve it into Palpitoad before you can evolve Palpitoad into Chandelure, both of those Pokemon are from this set and I've reviewed both of them the last couple of days.  The first two Pokemon in this line from Plasma Freeze are not very good at all, both are below average Pokemon cards.  So with that in mind, I would not recommend using this card or this line at all in a deck.  However if you choose to, I would use a line of 3-2-1 of Tympole, Palpitoad, and Seismitoad.  I would evolve the line into Seismitoad on the bench, then put four energy cards on it.  That way when you move it into the active Pokemon spot you could use Splashing Turn right away if you choose to.  If you do choose to use this card in your deck, you'll either want to have few Pokemon on your bench, which is risky, or have most of the Pokemon in your deck have high hp.  Otherwise if you use Seismic Punch more than once you'll probably knock out your own Pokemon.  Since Seismic Punch does do spread damage, I would incorporate other spread damage type Pokemon in this deck with Seismitoad.  That way 30 damage to each of your opponent's Pokemon may knock out several of them at once.  Because Seismic Punch only requires colorless energy cards, you could easily put this entire line in any type deck, not just a water type deck.  But again, I would not choose to use this card in a deck, because neither of the Pokemon below Seismitoad are very good, and this card isn't that great in my opinion either.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is an average stage 2 Pokemon card from the Plasma Freeze Pokemon card set.  I think that this card is average because it has an average hp, two moves which are both average, and an average retreat cost.  The reason I wouldn't use this card in a deck is because overall, this line from Plasma Freeze is below average, overall I would give this line a 2 out of 5 rating.  This line requires too many energy cards to attack, and the moves this line has just aren't that great.
