Today's Card Review is on Giratina Lv. X from the Platinum series. Giratina has an HP of 130, a x2 weakness to Dark-type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to Normal-types, and a retreat cost of 3 Colorless Energies. Giratina has 1 Poke-Body, and one Attack.
Giratina Lv. X's Pokebody is called Invisible Tentacles. It says if your opponent wants to attack, they must discard a card from their hand. I must say, this is a fantastic Poke-Body. It has the ability to make your opponent lose out on some good cards, if they discard them, and if they can't/don't want to discard any cards, they can't attack!
Giratina's attack, for 2 Psychic Energies and 2 Colorless Energies, is called Darkness Lost. This attack spreads the damage really well. Darkness Lost does 30 damage to ALL of your opponent's Pokemon, and if any Pokemon is knocked out from this damage, they are sent to the Lost Zone.
I know what you may be wondering, "What is the Lost Zone?" Well, the Lost Zone is an advanced discard pile. Once something is sent to the Lost Zone, it can't be retrieved through means of cards like Night Maintenance or Poke-Powers. Therefore, this attack is GREAT for taking out a lot of your opponent's good Pokemon, possibly ruining their strategy.
Well, that's it for today's Card Review, stay tuned for tomorrow's!
