Pokemon Card of the Day: Regigigas (Stormfront)

Today's Pokemon Card of the Day is Regigigas from the Stormfront set. This is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 100. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a four colorless energy card retreat cost. Regigigas's Poke-Body is called Regi Form that says if you have Regirock, Regice, and Registeel in play, the attack cost of Regigigas's attacks is one colorless energy card less. Besides the Poke-Body, Regigigas has two moves, the first move is called Mega Punch, which does 30 damage for two colorless energy cards. Regigigas's second move is called Giga Power which takes four energy cards, one each of water, fighting, metal, and colorless, and does 60 damage plus 40 more damage if you do 40 damage to itself. So as far as strategy goes I would try and use this card with all the other Regi cards so you can use Regigigas's Poke-Body, also I would make sure to use some special energy cards so you could actually use Giga Power. But other than that, there isn't too much to do with this card, because of this I would give this card a 1 out of 5. It has an extremely high retreat cost, neither of its moves are great, and it requires to many different types of energy cards to be used very often. So thanks for reading today's review of Regigigas from the Stormfront set, stay tuned for tomorrow's review of Abomasnow from the same set.
