Wimpod Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Review

Wimpod Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Review


Wimpod Burning Shadows Pokemon Card
Pokemon Card Overview:
Todays Pokemon Card Review is of Wimpod from the Burning Shadows Pokemon Card Set.  Wimpod is a Basic, Grass type Pokemon card with a HP of 70.  It has a x2 weakness to Fire type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a three Colorless Energy card retreat cost.  Wimpods Ability is called Wimp Out and says that during your first turn, Wimpod does not have a Retreat Cost.  Besides the Ability, Wimpod just has the one move called Gnaw, which does 30 damage for three Energy cards, one Grass and two Colorless.

Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Wimpod is a Basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Golisopod GX, which Ill be reviewing tomorrow, youll more than likely want to use this card with that Pokemon.  However, since I havent reviewed that card yet, Ill just act as though I plan on using this card without its evolution.  So, on its own, there is absolutely no reason to use this card in a deck.  The only positive on this card is that it does have an above average HP, as a Basic Pokemon that has a Stage 1 evolution.  Ideally, youd like to be able to use a Pokemons Ability from the Bench, but Wimpods Ability is only available for one turn, making it not good at all.  So, unless you want to wait to get three Energy cards on this Pokemon and then risk not having enough Energy to retreat, I would stay as far away from this Pokemon as possible.

Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 0 out of 5 rating.  So in my opinion, on its own, without considering Golisopod, this is a terrible Basic Pokemon card from the Burning Shadows set.  This card really has nothing going for it, its Ability is pretty much useless, it is extremely slow on the attack, under-powered, and has a high retreat cost.  The only reason this card should ever be used is to get to Golisopod GX.
