Pokemon Card of the Day: Mesprit (Legends Awakened)

Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Mesprit from the Legends Awakened set. This is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 70. It has a +20 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Its Poke-Power is called Psychic Bind and says that when you put Mesprit from your hand to your bench your opponent can't use any Poke-Powers against your Pokemon the next turn. Mesprit's only move is called Extrasensory which takes two psychic energy cards and does 20 damage plus 50 more damage if you have the same number of cards in your hand as your opponent. As far as strategy goes this card could be vital against stopping your opponent if they're using Poke-Powers within their deck. But this card can't really do too much about it since this Poke-Power can only be used once unless you want to use a trainer card to move it back to your hand. Mesprit's move can do a lot of damage for only two energy cards but it could take a while until you do have the same amount of cards as your opponent. So with luck this card can be quite good but this card requires too much luck for me that is why I am giving this card a two out of five because it isn't anything special, this card is only good if your opponent falls right into its moves, otherwise if your opponent doesn't use Poke-Powers or at least ones that do some damage, or they have cards that allow them to get their hand large or small Mesprit it a very dismal card.
