Pokemon Reversal

Modified - 4/5 If it wasn't for the flip, it will be the good old Gust of Wind - the most broken card ever.
Anyways, it's still incredibly good. It can win a lot of games. (can lose a lot too...)

Limited - 5/5 It's even more valuable here. Sometimes, this card makes the game 50/50 for you to win, instead of zero. 

 
Thundachu Pokemon Reversal

Overview: So it seems they changed the text again. Oh well. Like all my trainer reviews, this one will be short. This one lets you flip a coin, and if heads, choose one of your opponent's benched and switch it with the defending. Your opponent gets to pick the defending pokemon(but who really plays with more than 1 defending anyways ;/)

Unlimited: I suggest Gust of Wind here instead. No coin flip needed, and does the exact same thing. 2/5

Modified: 3/5

Draft: 2.5/5

Pokemon Reversal – You no longer have to choose which Pokemon before the flip so just flip away with this card and hope for a heads. Really we have seen this card in about 3 other sets now and make its way into fewer decks. I think that this card will see more play once the Wotc sets get rotated out. Some people say you need 4 in your deck to be effective others say it is a waste of space. You decide.

The damage counter is placed for each energy that you Rain. Note that the Power lets you place one energy card at a time. You don't get to place a whole bunch of cards in one step, bypassing the damage. People may wind up placing the energy in one step, but that's a shortcut, not how the power works.

Unlimited: 1/5 – Gust of Win(d) is so much better. No choice here.

Modified: 3/5 – Really the only trainer in this format to provide a Gust of Win(d) effect. Sure there are Powers or attacks that do so but this is the only trainer that does so on a heads flip.

Limited: 3/5 – I’m giving it a 3 here because sometimes it will win you the game. When the strategy in draft is to retreat an injured Poke Reversal can win you those games sometimes.
