CHANDELURE EX LEGENDARY TREASURES 77/113

     Todays post is on Chandelure EX from Legendary Treasures set. This card is the 77 card of 113, it is a ultra rare card that is a psychic type card with an HP of 170. Its week to Dark type cards and has a retreat cost of 2. Chandelures first attack is called CURSED DROP: and for one psychic energy you can put four damage counters on your opponents Pokemon any way you want. that means you can put one damage counter on four Pokemon, or you can put all four on one Pokemon, so for only one enerygy card this is a pretty decent attack. Chandelures 2nd attack is called EERIE GLOW: and for 2 psychic and one colorless energy card you do 70 damage and your opponent is now burned and confused. this is a pretty decent attack because you can do damage to your opponent without attacking due to the burn and confussion.

     So as far as Srategy goes I would use this card with with Giratina from Plasma Storm because Giratina can do an extra 50 damage when the opponent is affected by a special condition. so I would have a couple Switch Trainers in your deck so you can do Eerie Glow, burn and confuse them then next turn you can switch Chandelure with Giratina and deal another 100 damage, a KO any pokemon and most pokemon EX.

     I give this card an A because of the way you can shuffle damage around and if paired with certain card you can do alot of damage and also do damage without attacking, the hp is 170 and the retrete cost is only 2 so it didnt get a perfect score but it came really close!

Zapdos EX from Plasma Storm (48/135)

This is my first post in a long time! And as a lot of you know I'm starting over my collection! I'm starting fresh with Plasma Storm. So here is your first look at Zapdos EX from the set!
   Zapdos EX is at first glance a great looking card. It's got the blue plasma border and the Team Plasma emblem in the middle. Zapdos has an HP of 170 which is normal for an EX Pokemon. Zapdos is a basic Pokemon with a weakness to its own kind ( electric ) and has a resistance to fighting types. With a very great retreat cost of just 1 energy!
    Zapdos first move is agility, and for 1 electric and 1 colorless you do 30 damage and if you flip heads you prevent all damage and effects done to this Zapdos. The second move is powervolt and for a high energy cost of 4 ( 2  electric and 2 colorless ) this attack does 80 damage. However, if you have plasma energies attached to Zapdos you can do an extra of 40 damage, for a grand total of 120 damage that can be dealt over and over!
     So for strategy I would have maybe 2 Zapdos in your deck and maybe leave them on your bench so you can charge them up. Like all ex cards your opponent gets 2 prize cards when they knock your Pokemon EX out, so be carful in how you use Zapdos. Charge this card up on your bench with the necessary energies and don't forget  the plasma energies! So when you play your Zapdos you can be doing 120 damage at a time!
   Over all I give this card a 4 out of 5 just because of the 4 energies it takes to do powervolt. The retreat is great and the hp is also good! Like I said before I love the new plasma cards! I hope you enjoys today's review of Zapdos EX from plasma storm! Next time I will review Moltres EX from the same set!
