Mewtwo is inarguably the most powerful Pokémon from the first generation – or at least that’s what Pokémon: The First Movie proposes. So then why is his first-gen Pokemon cardso puny? 60 HP and a first attack with a base of 10 (before some additions) is not befitting of Nintendo’s genetically engineered monstrosity. What is fitting for Mewtow, howe...
Coming along relatively late into the game for the first generation of Pokémon cards, Magmar(of the Fossil set) has never really gotten the respect he deserves. Sure, he’s not as good as a certain powerful trio crucial to the Haymaker deck archetype (more on them later…obviously), but he is way closer than he has any right to be. 70 HP is great for...
Here’s another curveball for you. Lickitung was never highly thought of during his initial run in the card game. Sure, his 90 HP is great for a Basic Pokémon but his attacks aren’t overwhelming enough to justify including him over a Chansey. But as YouTuber JWittz recently discovered, Lickitung’s attacks are more than enough to take down retro Poké...
In every card game with a big enough playbase, a certain meta of successful deck archetypes usually pops up. One of those archetypes in retro Pokémon is “Rain Dance,” so named for Blastoise’s absolutely insane Pokémon Power ability. Make no mistake, Blastoise is a beast on his own. 100 HP and a 40 attack that can be powered up via energy are incred...
Before Mr. Mime’s jester-shoed feet lie the graves of many empires. Mr. Mimewas put on Earth for one purpose and one purpose only: to exploit the hubris of the powerful. Mr. Mime is of course extremely puny in terms of HP and attack. But his Pokémon Power, “Invisible Wall,” makes him one of the game’s all-time greatest irritants. Unless Mr. Mime is...
Energy Removalis the kind of overpowered card that gets added to a card game early on its life – before the creators realize the monster that they’ve created. Energy Removal simply…removes energy. No frills beyond that. And it doesn’t need them. Losing a hard-earned energy at any point in the game is devastating. Not including at least three energy...
