Chandelure -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Chandelure from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 2, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 130. It has a x2 weakness to darkness type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Chandelure's Ability is called Cursed Shadow and it says that once during your turn if Chandelure is your active Pokemon you may put three damage counters on your opponent's Pokemon any way you like. Besides the Ability, Chandelure has a move called Eerie Glow which does 50 damage for three energy cards, two psychic and one colorless, plus the defending Pokemon is now Burned and Confused.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this is a great spread damage type card that should be the staple in any psychic deck. The way I would use this card is to use its Ability every turn and do damage to the opponent's benched Pokemon, then I would use Eerie Glow and do 50 damage and burn and confuse the defending Pokemon. I would keep doing this until Chandelure is knocked out or you retreat it.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 5 out of 5 rating. This card really is amazing, it does 80 damage every turn and not only inflicts one special condition on the defending Pokemon but two. So as soon as you get this card set up on your bench, put it into play and prepare for your opponent to cry in agony.

Beheeyem -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Beheeyem from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 1, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 80. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Beheeyem doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Synchronoise and for one psychic energy card it does 20 damage plus 20 more damage to each of your opponent's Pokemon that is the same type as your opponent's active Pokemon. Beheeyem's other move is called Psyshot which does 40 damage for two energy cards, one each of psychic and colorless.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Synchronoise can do some spread damage I would suggest putting this card in a spread damage type deck. I would use Synchronoise every turn if your opponent's active Pokemon's type matched most of its benched Pokemon, if not I would use Psyshot every turn.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. There really isn't anything too special about this card unless your opponent has a single type deck than this card can do a fair amount of damage. Other than that, Beheeyem's hp is low and 40 damage isn't very much for a move, especially for a stage 1 card.

Reuniclus #52/101 -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Reuniclus from the Noble Victories set. This is the first of two Reuniclus cards I'll be reviewing from this set. This is a stage 2, psychic type Pokemon, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost. Reuniclus doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Future Sight and for one colorless energy card you may look at the top 5 cards of your deck and arrange them in any order you like and put them back on the top of your deck. Reuniclus' second move is called Net Force and for one psychic energy card this move does 40 damage times the number of Reuniclus cards you have in play.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, you'll definitely want to have more than one Reuniclus cards in your deck so you can put more than one into play so Net Force will do more than 40 damage. Other than that, you can use Future Sight to level up Pokemon if you have a lot of Stage 2 Pokemon in your deck, you can move the evolutions to the top of the deck. If I were to use this card, I would stick with Net Force the entire time.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 1 out of 5 rating. This is probably the worst card I've reviewed so far from the Noble Victories set, this card is a stage 2 card, yet it has an extremely low hp, and can't do much damage unless you have a lot of other Reuniclus in play which if you're forced to put this card into your active Pokemon spot you won't have much time to get other Reuniclus into play before this card is knocked out.

Cofagrigus #46/101 -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Cofagrigus from the Noble Victories set. This is the second of two Cofagrigus cards I'll be reviewing from this set. This is a stage 1, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to darkness type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Cofagrigus doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Damagriigus and for two energy cards, one each of psychic and colorless you may move all damage counters from 1 of your benched Pokemon to the defending Pokemon. Cofagrigus' other move is called Perplex and for three energy cards, two colorless and one psychic, it does 30 damage and confuses the defending Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, you'll definitely want to put this card into a deck that has a lot of Pokemon that either has free or low retreat costs. That way you can play whatever card you like until it is close to getting knocked out, retreat it, put Cofagrigus into play and use Damagriigus and remove all the damage from the Pokemon you just retreated and put that damage onto your opponent's active Pokemon. So I would search for the Pokemon with free retreat costs and the highest hp. If you don't have any benched Pokemon with much damage on them, use Perplex and hope that your opponent is confused when trying to attack.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. This card is above average in some aspects and below average in others. It has an average hp, and has the potential to not only do a lot of damage but heal your Pokemon at the same time. This card would be extremely powerful if you could retreat it cheaply instead of having to put 3 energy cards on it to retreat it, and you'll want to retreat Cofagrigus so you can use Damagriigus numerous times without getting knocked out.

Tomorrow's Pokemon Card:
So thanks for reading today's Pokemon card review of Cofagrigus from the Noble Victories set, stay tuned for tomorrow's card review of the first of two Reuniclus cards from the Noble Victories set.

Victini #43/101 -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Victini from the Noble Victories set. This is the third Victini card I'll be reviewing from this set. This is a basic, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 60. It has a x2 weakness to psychic type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Victini doesn't have an Ability but it does have one move called V-Blast that does 120 damage for one psychic energy card. However in order to do this move you have to flip two coins and have neither of them be tails.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, I would put this card in a dual type deck that included Fire and Psychic type Pokemon. The reason I would have these two types is because I would include another Victini card from this set in the deck, card #14/101. I would include that card in the deck so I could utilize its Ability so I'd have two chances at being able to use V-Blast instead of 1. Other than that, I would only put 1 of these cards in the deck and have it be a wild card in the deck, it could prove very beneficially or it may be a waste of space in the deck. I would probably turn to this card as a one hit wonder, I would give V-Blast a chance for a turn, and if I didn't get it, retreat Victini and not use it again.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. This card is pretty basic and the card relies entirely on luck, with that being said, other than its attack, everything else on this card is average so I will give it an average rating.

So thanks for reading today's Pokemon card review of Victini from the Noble Victories set, stay tuned for tomorrow's card review of another Cofagrigus card from the Noble Victories set.

Eelektross -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Eelektross from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 2, electric type Pokemon card, with an hp of 140. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three colorless energy card retreat cost. Eelektross doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Acid and for two colorless energy cards it does 30 damage and the defending Pokemon can't retreat during the next turn. Eelektross' other move is called Wild Charge and does 90 damage for three energy cards, two electric and one colorless, however this move does 10 damage to Eelektross.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, with such a high hp on this card I would definitely try and use Wild Charge every turn, that way you could knock out most Pokemon in two turns or less. The only time I would use Acid would be if 90 damage wouldn't knock out the defending Pokemon and I was fairly certain your opponent would retreat their active Pokemon the next turn. I would put this card in a mainly electric type deck but it wouldn't be the card the deck was built around.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. This card seems pretty average to me, especially for a stage 2 Pokemon card. There is nothing to get excited about here, if you need a line of 4-3-2 Pokemon in your electric type deck this card may fit you but it probably isn't the best line of Pokemon to put in your deck.

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

Zebstrika -- Noble Victories Pokemon Card Review

Pokemon Card Overview:
Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Zebstrika from the Noble Victories set. This is a stage 1, electric type Pokemon card, with an hp of 90. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Zebstrika doesn't have an Ability but it does have two moves, the first move is called Quick Attack which takes one colorless energy card and does 10 damage plus 20 more damage if you get a heads when you flip a coin. Zebstrika's second move is called Shock Bolt which does 90 damage for three energy cards, two electric and one colorless. However, when performing this move you have to flip a coin, if you get tails you have to discard all electric energy cards attached to this Pokemon.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, this card is extremely straightforward. Whichever move you have enough energy for, use that move. I would hope to use Shock Bolt every turn and never flip a tails. There isn't much else for strategy with this card, it is mostly a filler Pokemon in an electric type deck.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 2 out of 5 rating. Even though Zebstrika can do 90 damage in one turn, I still give this card a rating below the average. I don't like the fact you have to wait two turns for sure if you use Shock Bolt and flip a tails. I would have liked this card better if you only had to discard a set number of energy cards instead of all electric energy cards because if you only attach one type of energy to this Pokemon you are going to be able to use Shock Bolt once and then more than likely not be able to use it again because you'll get knocked out before two or three turns are over.
