Nosepass -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Nosepass from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Nosepass is a basic, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 80.  It has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Nosepass does not have an Ability and it only has one move called Rock Throw which requires two colorless energy cards and does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Nosepass is a basic Pokemon that has a stage 1 evolution in Probopass, you'll want to pair this card with its evolution.  If you plan on using Probopass from this set (which I'll be reviewing tomorrow) you'll want to include Nosepass in a steel type deck because that is the type of Pokemon Probopass is in this set.  Nosepass would be a decent Pokemon to start your game with, it is a tad bit slow but Rock Throw is a solid move and can do 20 damage every turn.  Strategy-wise when Nosepass is in the active Pokemon spot you will have no choice but to use Rock Throw every turn since that is Nosepass's only move.  I would possibly put 1 Nosepass in any type deck since it only requires colorless energy cards.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a solid basic Pokemon card.  I like the fact this card has an above average hp, and one good move.  Like I said in the strategy section of this review, it is a bit slow, but being able to do 20 damage every turn on a basic Pokemon is pretty good.  So I would recommend using this card if you have the option to.

Marowak -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Marowak from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Marowak is a stage 1, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100.  It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to electric type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Marowak does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, its first move is called Bone Lock and for one fighting energy card, this move does 30 damage plus makes your opponent's active Pokemon unable to retreat during their next turn.  Marowak's second move is called Vortex Chop and for three energy cards, two colorless and one fighting, this move does 60 damage plus 30 more damage if the defending Pokemon has any resistance.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Marowak is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Cubone into play (I reviewed Cubone from this set yesterday) and then evolve Cubone into Marowak.  If you read yesterday's review, I think Cubone is an excellent starter Pokemon so it should probably be in your active Pokemon spot when you evolve Cubone into Marowak, once you have Marowak in the active Pokemon spot, I would add one more energy card to Marowak so you have three, then use 60 damage every turn, I would make sure to have Marowak in the active Pokemon spot if the defending Pokemon had any type of resistance on it, that way Vortex Chop could do 90 damage every turn.  The only time I would use Bone Lock is if I didn't have enough energy cards on Marowak to use Vortex Chop, or you need to make sure the defending Pokemon can't retreat the next turn so you can knock it out and win the game.  I would recommend using a 2-1 line of Cubone and Marowak in a fighting type deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an above average stage 1 Pokemon card.  This means that both the Pokemon in this line from Dragons Exalted are both above average and I would definitely recommend using this line in your deck.  What I specifically like about this card is that it has a good hp, low retreat cost, and two great moves, Bone Lock is quick and can pack a wallop, Vortex Chop takes some time but with some patience and your opponent having a resistance, this card is a well above average move.

Cubone -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Cubone from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Cubone is a basic, fighting type Pokemon card, with an hp of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to electric type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Cubone does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Headbutt and for one fighting energy card, this move does 10 damage.  Cubone's second move is called Beat and for two colorless energy cards this move does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, even though Cubone has a stage 1 evolution in Marowak, and there is a Marowak in this set (I'll be reviewing that card tomorrow), I would definitely recommend moving in Cubone from your bench to your active Pokemon spot as soon as you can in the game.  The reasons for this would be that Cubone has a fairly high hp, and two quick, efficient moves, that can do a fair amount of damage to other, weaker basic Pokemon early in games.  Plus, you can attach two energy cards to Cubone and then set up the rest of your team on the bench, and if Cubone gets in trouble you can either retreat it for one energy card or evolve it into Marowak.  If you only want to use Cubone in a deck, I would put 1 or 2 Cubone's in a fighting type deck, but since Beat requires two colorless energy cards this card could work well in most decks.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an above average basic Pokemon card.  I like that it has a good hp, but still has an evolution, and is quick to attack, both moves doing damage and neither move requiring more than 2 energy cards.  So I would definitely recommend using this card in battle, stay tuned for tomorrow's review to see if I recommend using this card would its evolution in Marowak.

Golurk -- Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Golurk from the Dragons Exalted Pokemon Card Set.  Golurk is a stage 1, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 130.  It has a x2 weakness to darkness type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a four colorless energy card retreat cost.  Golurk does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, its first move is called Devolution Punch and for three energy cards, two colorless and one psychic, this move does 60 damage plus it devolves your opponent's active opponent and makes them put their highest stage evolution card on their active Pokemon back into their hand.  Golurk's second move is called Ghost Hammer and for four energy cards, two each of psychic and colorless, this move does 90 damage, plus when your opponent attacks Golurk the next turn, Golurk no longer has a weakness.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Golurk is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll have to first put Golett on your bench and then evolve Golett into Golurk.  There is one Golett card in this set and I reviewed that card yesterday.  I would definitely keep Golett on the bench the entire time before evolving it into Golurk, even when I do evolve Golett into Golurk I would still keep Golurk on the bench until it gets at least three energy cards on it, once Golurk has three energy cards on it, and your opponent's active Pokemon is a stage 1 or stage 2 Pokemon, I would move Golurk into the active Pokemon spot and then use Devolution Punch.  The reason I would use Devolution Punch in this scenario is that by doing 60 damage and devolving the defending Pokemon I will more than likely be able to knock it out.  But if this isn't the scenario that you're in, I would use Ghost Hammer every turn because it does 30 more damage per turn than what Devolution Punch can do.  I would include Golurk in a psychic type deck, and include either a 2-2 or 1-1 line of Golett and Golurk in that deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an above average stage 1 Pokemon card.  Even though this card will take a while to use and has a high retreat cost, I still think both of Golurk's moves make this card better than average.  I like how one move can do major damage every turn and the other move can devolve your opponent's Pokemon and ruin their strategy in the meantime.  So I would definitely recommend using this card in a psychic type deck.
