Victini #15/101 -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Victini from the Noble Victories set. This is the second of three Victini card reviews from this set. This is a basic, fire type Pokemon card, with an hp of 70. It has a x2 weakness to water type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Unlike yesterday's review, this card doesn't have an Ability and it only has one move called V-Create which takes two energy cards, one each of fire and colorless and does 100 damage, however this move doesn't do anything if you have 4 or fewer benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this card is absolutely worthless unless you have pretty much a full bench so you'll want to wait until very late in the game to use the card. Because of this fact, I wouldn't recommend putting very many of these cards into your deck if you do use this card. I would more than likely put this card in later in the game when one of my Pokemon gets knocked out, then use V-Create and retreat it back the next turn.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. Even though this card can do a great amount of damage I still see it as an average card. It can't do anything under most circumstances and with only 70 hp this card isn't going to last more than a turn or two when you do get it into play. If you dare you this card in your deck just make sure to load up your bench before using this card.

Victini #14/101 -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Victini from the Noble Victories set. This is the first of three Victini cards I'll be reviewing from this set. This 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. Victini's Ability is called Victory Star and says that once during your turn you may re-flip any coins you flipped during that turn. So if you didn't get very good results this Ability basically is a do-over. Besides the Ability, Victini has one move called Store Power which takes two energy cards, one each of fire and colorless and does 30 damage, after using this move you must move all energy attached to this Pokemon to one of your benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, I would definitely use this card in decks where you have a lot of cards that depend on coin flips, that way you could keep this card on your bench the whole game and get two chances every turn at doing even more damage by getting better coin flip results. Other than its Ability, this card isn't too bad of a starter Pokemon since it can do 30 damage after two turns and then the energy can be put on a Pokemon that needs the energy cards more.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. I really do like this Pokemon's Ability but since its only move makes you remove all energy cards from Victini you're going to have to spend an additional turn attaching an energy to this card to be able to retreat it. So I would definitely use this card in a fire type deck but I would keep it on my bench as long as possible.

Virizion -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Virizion from the Noble Victories set. This is a basic, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 110. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to water type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Virizion does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Double Draw and for one colorless energy card you can draw 2 cards from your deck. Virizion's second move is called Leaf Wallop which takes two energy cards, one each of grass and colorless and does 40 damage. The turn after using Leaf Wallop this attack does 80 damage instead of 40.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, I would recommend setting this card up on your bench, and as soon as you get two energy cards on it, put it into the active Pokemon spot and use Leaf Wallop twice in a row, more than likely you should be able to knock out at least one of your opponent's Pokemon. However this card can actually be used in any type deck if you want to use it has a way to get extra cards into your hand, you could actually just use Double Draw and make this card quite worthy of being in your deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. This card has good speed and hp for a basic Pokemon and can function in a grass type deck or any type of deck. It can do quite a bit of damage and also help you get the cards you need in important moments of the game. And if you have to, you can easily retreat this card for only 1 energy card and put this card back into the active Pokemon spot quickly and do damage again after only one turn.

Accelgor -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Accelgor from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 1, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a free retreat cost. Once again, this card does not have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Acid Spray and for one colorless energy card it does 20 damage plus if you get a heads when you flip a coin you may discard an energy attached to the defending Pokemon. Accelgor's second move is called Slashing Strike and for one grass energy card this move does 60 damage, however Accelgor can't use this move the next turn.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, I would try to get this card into the active Pokemon spot as fast as possible for two reasons: The first reason being that this card is extremely fast, only requiring one energy card to do either of its moves. The second reason is that this card can do 60 damage with only one energy card and if you get this card into the active Pokemon spot right away in the game you have a good shot of knocking out some of your opponent's basic, starting Pokemon. So obviously I would use Slashing Strike first and then the next turn I would be forced to use Acid Spray. I would only put this card into the active Pokemon spot against weak Pokemon with HP's less than 60.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating. This card is extremely quick and can quickly make your opponent fall behind in battle. Not only is this card quick but it can move in and out of the active Pokemon spot without having to give up any energy cards so move this card in and out of play often and use Slashing Strike to one hit KO your opponent's weak Pokemon.

Lilligant -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Lilligant from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 1, grass type Pokemon card, with an hp of 80. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to water type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Lilligant doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Aromax and for one grass energy card it can heal all damage from one of your benched Pokemon. Lilligant's second move is called Windmill and for two energy cards, one each of grass and colorless, it does 30 damage and makes you switch this card with one of your benched Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, like yesterday's review, this card could do well in any type deck as long as you have some colorless energy cards in it, that way you can use Aromax and heal any Pokemon you have in play. I would recommend using Pokemon that have high HP's and low retreat costs so you can do a lot of damage while taking in a lot of damage, once you get a lot of damage, retreat that card, hopefully for free, put Lilligant into play, use Aromax one turn to heal that Pokemon you just took out, and then use Windmill the next turn to put that freshly healed Pokemon back into the active Pokemon spot.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. The strategy for this card is solid however with only 80 HP you're not going to be able to put Lilligant into play too many times before it gets knocked out. So I would save this card for a card you desperately need healed. Because of its low HP I give this card an average score, if the HP would have been higher the score of this card would have been much higher as well.

Leavanny -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Leavanny from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 2, grass type Pokemon card with an hp of 130. It has a x2 weakness to fire type Pokemon, no resistance type and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Leavanny's Ability is called Leaf Tailor and says that each of your Pokemon that has any energy attached to it has no weakness. Besides the Ability, Leavanny has one move called Cutting Arm which takes three energy cards, two colorless and one grass and does 40 damage plus 20 more damage for each heads you get when you flip two coins.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, Leavanny's Ability makes this card quite appealing in any deck since it prevents all of your Pokemon from having any weaknesses once you get energy attached to them. This would be especially important if you use a lot of slow, basic type Pokemon in your deck (i.e. a lot of Legendary Pokemon). If you do put Leavanny into the active Pokemon spot this card is a no-brainer on strategy since it only has the one move, I would just hope for two heads so you can do 80 damage per turn.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating. Like I said above, this card has a very nice ability, but for a stage 2 Pokemon, it doesn't have the greatest HP, and it isn't guaranteed to do much damage. I wouldn't want to spend a lot of time leveling up Pokemon to get a Stage 2 card in play and then have it only be able to do 40 damage.

Tomorrow's Pokemon Card:
So thanks for reading today's Pokemon card review of Leavanny from the Noble Victories set, stay tuned for tomorrow's card review of Lilligant from the Noble Victories set.

Druddigon -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Druddigon from the Noble Victories set. This is a basic, colorless type Pokemon card with an hp of 100. It has no weakness or resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Druddigon's Ability is called Rough Skin and it says any time Druddigon is your active Pokemon and it is damaged by an opponent's attack put 2 damage counters on the attacking Pokemon. Besides the Ability, Druddigon has one move called Clutch which does the standard 60 damage for three energy, three colorless energy cards in Druddigon's case.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this is a fantastic card to start your game with, not only does it have a high hp and the potential to do a fair amount of damage but it can do damage every turn no matter what as long as your opponent attacks you. That way you can do damage every turn until you get three energy cards on it and then possibly do 100 damage every turn. I would for sure put four of these cards in any type deck and prepare to get them out into the active Pokemon spot as fast as possible and hopefully beat your opponent in record time.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating. This is one great basic Pokemon card that can be used in any deck. It can do 100 damage every turn and with 100 hp on itself this card should be able to last many weak basic Pokemon's attacks.
