Vulpix -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Vulpix from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set.  Vulpix is a basic, fire type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Vulpix does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Firebreathing, for two energy cards, one each of fire and colorless, this move does 20 damage, plus if you get a heads when you flip a coin the move does 10 more damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Vulpix is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Ninetales, which I'll be reviewing tomorrow, you'll more than likely want to use this card with that Pokemon.  However, since I haven't reviewed that card yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolution.  So on its own, this card could be used on its own since it has a decent hp and can do 20+ damage per turn.  Because this card requires two energy cards to attack instead of one, I would not use more than one of these cards on its own in a fire type deck, but this card is definitely usable in a deck on its own.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average basic Pokemon card from the Legendary Treasures set. Even though this card can't attack right away, everything else about the card is pretty good, solid hp, low retreat cost, and above average move.  So if you're building a fire type deck and need one more basic Pokemon card in it, this card would do the trick.

Genesect -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Genesect from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set.  Genesect is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 110. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost.  Genesect does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Slash, this move requires one grass energy card and does 20 damage.  Genesect's second move is called Gaia Blaster, this move requires four colorless energy cards, and does 50 damage plus 20 more damage for each grass energy card attached to Genesect.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Genesect is a basic Pokemon with no evolutions, you only have to use this Pokemon in your deck if you want to use this card.  With that being said, since this card can attack for only one energy card you can use this card to start the game or you can keep Genesect on the bench and put four grass energy cards on it so Gaia Blaster does 130 damage per turn.  I would put 2 of these cards in almost any grass type deck out there and I would make sure to attach only grass energy cards to Genesect.  The main use I would have with this card is to use Gaia Blaster and knock out every single Pokemon in two turns or less.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is a way above average basic Pokemon card from the Legendary Treasures set.  Other than Gaia Blaster requiring 4 energy cards to attack there really isn't anything to dislike about this card, it has an above average hp, low retreat cost, one quick move that does a fair amount of damage, and one slower move that does way above average damage.  If you're building a grass type deck, this card should definitely be in it.

Crustle -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Crustle from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set.  Crustle is a stage 1, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Crustle does not have an Ability but it does have two moves.  The first move that this card has is called Hard Press, for two colorless energy cards, this move does 30 damage plus if you get a heads when you flip a coin, the defending Pokemon is paralyzed.  Crustle's second move is called Hammer In, for three energy cards, two colorless and one grass, this move does 70 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Crustle is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Dwebble into play (I reviewed Dwebble from this set yesterday) and then evolve Dwebble into Crustle.  If you read yesterday's review, you'll know that I thought Dwebble was a slightly below average basic Pokemon card that should not be used on its own, but could easily be used with this card.  So after summarizing Crustle in the overview part of this post, I think Crustle could easily be used in a grass type deck, it definitely wouldn't be the main Pokemon in that deck, but it still should help your team quite a bit.  I would consider putting a 2-2 or 2-1 line of Dwebble and Crustle and wanting to get Crustle into the active Pokemon spot as soon as possible, the earlier in the game the better.  If you use Hard Press early in the game, it will allow you to keep Crustle in the active Pokemon spot for longer and let you set up your bench more easily, but if you choose to use Hammer In most turns, you'll definitely knock out some Pokemon in one turn with a move that does 70 damage.

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 from the Legendary Treasures set.  This card is a very solid Pokemon card in my opinion and will make a good second or third option card in your grass type deck.  This card has a good hp, and two very good moves.  The only negative on this card is that its hp is a bit high, but not out of control or anything.  Overall, I would give the line of Dwebble and Crustle from this set a 4 out of 5 rating, individually they received 3 and 4 ratings.

Dwebble -- Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:

Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Dwebble from the Legendary Treasures Pokemon Card Set.  Dwebble is a basic, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 60.  It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Dwebble does not have an Ability and it only has one move.  The only move that this card has is called Bug Bite, for two energy cards, one each of grass and colorless, this move does 20 damage.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Dwebble is a basic Pokemon card with a stage 1 evolution in Crustle, which I'll be reviewing tomorrow, you'll more than likely want to use this card with that Pokemon.  However, since I haven't reviewed that card yet, I'll just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolution.  So on its own, this card could be used on its own since it has a decent hp and can do 20 damage per turn, but I wouldn't recommend using this card without Crustle because Dwebble cannot attack its first turn, and the retreat cost for this card is too high in my opinion.  If you would choose to use this card in a deck on its own, I definitely wouldn't use more than 1 of these cards in that deck, and I would get this card into the active Pokemon spot sooner rather than later.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion, this is an average to slightly below average basic Pokemon card from the Legendary Treasures set.  Even though I wouldn't use this card in a deck on its own, it is neither terrible or an amazing card overall, it is just average.  20 damage per turn is good from a basic Pokemon card and the 60 hp is quite average at all.  There just really isn't anything that I really really like about this card that would make me want to use it in a deck on its own.
