Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Charizard G from the Supreme Victors set. This is a basic, fire type Pokemon card with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to fighting type Pokemon, and a retreat cost of 3 colorless energy cards. Charizard doesn't have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, the first move is called Flame Jet and this move requires 2 energy cards one each of fire and colorless and this move does 40 damage to one of your opponent's Pokemon. Charizard's second move is called Heat Blast and this move does 50 damage for 3 energy cards, 1 fire and 2 colorless energy cards. So as far as strategy goes I would recommend using Heat Blast against the defending Pokemon each turn unless that Pokemon is weak and/or you can knock out some of your opponent's benched Pokemon in two turns or less than I would use Flame Jet. I would give this card a rating of 3 out of 5 because it is average overall, it has two average but not overpowering moves, but it is definitely a good card to have in your deck and is especially useful when you want to use Charizard G Lv. X. So thanks for reading today's review of Charizard G from Supreme Victors stay tuned for tomorrow's of another Charizard card.

Pokemon Card of the Day: Charizard (EX Power Keepers)
Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Charizard from the EX Power Keepers set. This is a stage 2, fire type Pokemon card with an hp of 120. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a retreat cost of two colorless energy cards. Charizard doesn't have a Poke-Power but it does have two moves, the first move is called Combustion and does 30 damage for only one fire energy card. Charizard's second move is called Bursting Inferno and this move does 50 damage for four energy cards, two each of fire and colorless. Besides doing the damage it also burns both Pokemon. So as far as strategy goes I would recommend using Bursting Inferno every turn, I would just make sure you have a trainer in your deck that can heal Charizard's burn right away, or you use this card at the end of the game where you can just outlast the defending Pokemon in terms of hp. Now this is one of the Charizard cards that I have more than one of and a reverse one too. The reason this is is because you can get an EX Power Keepers set for pretty cheap and Power Keepers it a pack you get with a lot of tins and special packs you can buy. So thanks for reading today's review of Charizard from EX Power Keepers stay tuned for tomorrow's review of another Charizard card.

Pokemon Card of the Day: Charizard star (EX Dragon Frontiers)
Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is the card I desire most, it is Charizard star from the EX Dragon Frontiers set, I have bought a 36 pack lot and numerous other EX Dragon Frontiers packs and never have gotten this card. With that being said, Charizard star is a basic, delta species Pokemon card, that is a dark type Pokemon, it has an hp of 90, a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a retreat cost of 3 colorless energy cards. Charizard has two moves the first move is called Rotating Claws and this move does 20 damage for 2 energy cards, 1 each of colorless and dark. When you use this move you may discard an energy card and search your discard pile for a different one and attach it to Charizard, you would want to do this to get a dark energy card on Charizard instead of another basic type you might have on Charizard for the colorless energy card you can use in Rotating Claws. Charizard's other move is extremely powerful, it does however take 5 energy cards, 4 dark and 1 colorless. This move does 150 damage and lets you discard the top 3 cards off your opponent's deck, however you have to discard all energy cards attached to Charizard star after using this move, so basically this is a one and done move. So I would recommend keeping Charizard star on your bench until you need to knock out a powerful Pokemon in one move, then move Charizard in and knock out that Pokemon, then I would try and get two energy cards on it and use Rotating Claws until it is knocked out. So like I said earlier this is a card I greatly desire but it is also one of the most expensive Charizard cards out there so if I don't get lucky and pull one in a pack I don't know if I'll ever get one. So thanks for reading today's review of Charizard star, stay tuned for tomorrow's review of another Charizard card.

Pokemon Card of the Day: Charizard (EX Dragon)
Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Charizard from EX Dragon. This is a stage 2, fire type, Pokemon card with an hp of 120. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a 2 colorless energy card retreat cost. Charizard doesn't have a Poke-Power but it does have two moves, the first move is called Collect Fire and this move does 30 damage for 2 energy cards, one each of fire and colorless, besides doing the damage you may flip a coin when you use this move and if you get a heads you can search the discard pile for up to two fire energy cards and attach them to Charizard. Charizard's second move is called Flame Pillar and this move does 60 damage for 4 energy cards, 1 fire energy card, and 3 colorless energy cards. Besides doing the 60 damage you can choose to discard a fire energy card and you can do 30 damage to one of your opponent's benched Pokemon. So as far as strategy goes, this card is really quick so you can do 60 damage quite quickly since you can use Collect Fire one turn and then be able to use Flame Pillar the next if you attach 2 energy cards to it, then if you really wanted to you could attach another energy card from your hand to Charizard and then do 60 damage to the defending Pokemon and 30 damage to a benched Pokemon. So I recently bid on this card on eBay but I lost by $.50 I believe I was pretty disappointed but maybe I'll find an EX Dragon box sometime for cheap and buy that. So thanks for reading today's review of Charizard from EX Dragon stay tuned for tomorrow's review of another Charizard card.
