Medicham -- Supreme Victors Pokemon Card Review

Medicham Pokemon Card Supreme Victors setPokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Medicham from the Supreme Victors set. This is a Stage 1, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a +20 weakness to pyschic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Medicham does not have a Poke-Power or Poke-Body but it does have two moves, its first move is called Channeling which does 60 damage for two energy cards, one each of colorless and psychic, however when you use this move your opponent must draw two cards. Medicham's second move is called Chakra Points and for three energy cards, two colorless and one psychic, it does 10 damage plus 10 damage for each card in your opponent's hand.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, I would suggest using Channeling a couple of times in a row and then if you are still alive using Chakra Points. By the time you use Chakra points you would hope your opponent would have at least 8 cards in their hand and you would be able to do 90 damage and be able to knock out most stage 1 and basic Pokemon cards. If I were playing this card, I would really hope for my opponent to use a card that would make sure there were six cards in their hand and then when I use Chakra Points after Tunneling, Medicham could do even more damage.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. I like how this card can do a lot of damage quickly and at the same time aid your opponent by giving them cards, but then once they get cards you can quickly dishearten their spirits by doing major damage to them. Medicham has a low retreat cost which is good because it only has 90 hp so it can't stay in the active Pokemon spot too long without getting knocked out.
