Hydreigon -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Hydreigon from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 2, darkness type Pokemon card, with an hp of 150. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to psychic type Pokemon, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Hydreigon's Ability is called Dark Aura and says that all energy cards attached to this Pokemon are dark type energy cards. Besides the Ability, Hydreigon has one move called Berserker Blade which does 60 damage for four darkness energy cards. This card also does 40 damage to two of your opponent's benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, I would definitely use this card in a spread damage type deck, it really doesn't matter the type since Hydreigon's Ability makes all energy cards attached to this one dark type energy cards. You'll just have to make sure the pre-evolutions to Hydreigon are leveled up on your bench not in the active Pokemon spot. This Pokemon is fairly slow, but two turns using Berserker Blade and many of your opponent's Pokemon should be knocked out, especially if you already did damage to them using one of your other spread damage type Pokemon from your deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. I really like how this card can be used in any deck and if you have the patience this card can really pay off in the end doing 40 damage to two of your opponent's benched Pokemon each turn.

Terrakion -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Terrakion from the Noble Victories set. This is a basic, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 130. It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a four colorless energy card retreat cost. It doesn't have an Ability, but it does have two moves, the first move is called Retaliate and does 30 damage for two energy cards, one each of fighting and colorless. If any of your Pokemon were knocked out last turn this move does 90 damage instead of 30. Terrakion's other move is called Land Crush which takes three energy cards, two fighting and one colorless and does 90 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this is another card you'll definitely want to set up on your bench first. As soon as one of your Pokemon gets knocked out, you can move Terrakion in as long as it has two energy cards on it and then use Retaliate. After that use Land Crush every turn to knock out most Pokemon in two turns or less. Since Terrakion's retreat cost is higher than either of its energy costs for its attacks I would keep this card in the active Pokemon spot until it gets knocked out or you win the game.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. This card definitely seems like a stage 2 card to me but you don't have to worry about evolving it since it is a basic Pokemon. As long as you give Terrakion some time, this card should do well in your deck and you should be able to do 90 damage every turn.

Golurk -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Golurk from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 1, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 130. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to electric type Pokemon, and a four colorless energy card retreat cost. Golurk doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Hammer Arm and does 60 damage for three energy cards, two fighting and one colorless. Besides doing the damage, you may discard the top card of your opponent's deck when using this move. Golurk's second move is called Hurrican Punch and for four energy cards, two each of fighting and colorless, this move does 50 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip four coins.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this is very strong stage 1 Pokemon that requires some energy cards to get going so you'll want to set this card up on your bench first. Once you get the necessary energy cards on it, I would use Hurricane Punch every turn, I usually don't prefer moves that rely on coin flips but even an unlucky person will be able to do 100 damage per turn once in awhile so it is definitely worth the chance and going with Hurricane Punch every turn. Obviously if you can knock out the defending Pokemon with 60 hp or less you'll want to use Hammer Arm instead.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. This card can do major damage but it is extremely slow, doesn't have that high of hp for the time it will take to get this card ready and will waste a lot of energy cards if needed to be retreated. With that being said, this card is definitely capable of knocking out some Pokemon and since it is only a stage 1 card, it should definitely be considered for fighting type decks.

Archeops -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Archeops from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 1, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 130. It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Archeops' Ability is called Ancient Power and says that neither player can evolve any of their Pokemon in play. Besides the Ability, Archeops has one move called Rock Slide which does the standard 60 damage for three energy cards, two fighting and one colorless in this case. Besides doing the 60 damage to the active Pokemon, Archeops does 10 damage to two of your opponent's benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, you'll want to use this card in a spread damage type deck so you can possibly knock out some of your opponent's benched Pokemon when you use Rock Slide. I would try and get Archeops out as quick as possible so you could use its Ability and prevent your opponent from evolving any Pokemon, since Ancient Power will affect you too, I would try and keep mostly basic and stage 1 cards in my deck so I wouldn't have to rely on evolving very much.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. For a stage 1 Pokemon card, this card has an extremely high hp and can do quite a bit of damage not only to your opponent's active Pokemon but their benched Pokemon as well. This is definitely a solid fighting type Pokemon card to put in any fighting type deck.
