Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Solrock from the Triumphant set. This is a basic, fighting type Pokemon card with an hp of 70, it has a x2 weakness to grass type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Solrock's Poke-Body called Heal Block says that as long as you have Lunacone in play damage counters can't be removed from any Pokemon in play, they can be moved still. Solrock's only move is called Sun Flash and this move does 20 damage for one fighting energy card and if the defending Pokemon tries to attack during their next turn they have to flip a coin and if it is tails they can't attack. As far as strategy goes it is straightforward since Solrock only has one move and if you want to use its Poke-Body you'll have to have Lunatone in play too but I wouldn't use this card at all it isn't any good except for sitting on your bench and using its Poke-Body but like I said only if you are going to use Lunatone in your deck. So I would rate this card a 1 out of 5 because especially for a rare card this isn't any good, I would keep it on my bench and use it for the Poke-Body, this card could have been good if Sun Flash would have done more damage but it doesn't. So thanks for reading today's review of Solrock from Triumphant, stay tuned for tomorrow's review of Spiritomb from Triumphant.
