							Ambipom LV.36 MT 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Hello there planet earth, and any other life form 
							that may be reading this. Today’s COTD is Ambipom, 
							the new evolution to Aipom that is sure to make your 
							opponent hurt mentally more than physically. This 
							card has a slight lack of HP, 80 HP isn’t enough to 
							survive almost any powerful stage 2 attack. But this 
							card shouldn’t be paired against stage 2 pokemon, it 
							should be out stage 2 attacking basic or stage 1 
							pokemon and making your opponents hand start 
							hurting. Tail influence is Ambipom’s only attack 
							that you’d want to use late game, the ability to 
							knock off multiple energies with only one attack is 
							astounding, plus it does 30 damage. Charity tail is 
							why this guy will see play though, doing 80 damage 
							unless your opponent discards 2 cards in their hand. 
							This isn’t an attack you use to do damage, it is one 
							where your opponent must now choose whether they 
							want to discard two cards from their hand, or give 
							you a prize. If they keep discarding their hand, 
							they will soon be unable to do much due to lack of 
							cards. If they let you knock out their pokemon, go 
							to town with it and get in as many KO’s as you can 
							before they send in their big hitter. It’s also a 
							plus that if you use this when your opponent doesn’t 
							have a hand (Or only one card in it,) then you can 
							do 80 damage every turn! 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Pros – 
						
							
							80 damage for 2 © 
						
							
							Energy discard 
						
							
							Hand disruption 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Cons – 
						
							
							Low HP 
						
							
							Chance to make the attack do 10 instead of 80 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Unlimited – still not fast enough for that dang 
							Sneasle 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Modified – This could work, use the right deck and 
							you could do good with this card 4/5 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Limited – Dang, this thing rocks here, either 80 or 
							discard your opponent’s precious hand 4.75/5 
						
							
							  
						
							
							Low HP gets in the way again, 
						
							
							  
						
							
							“Birthdays are good for you - the more you have the 
							longer you live.”
