In response to C. Munk and Josh about Charizard and Chansey, Chansey is
the best card out there, and Charizard is decent too. First of all:
Chansey has 120 HP, and is BASIC!!! Basic means that you don't have to
wait dozens of turns to get it out. Now I'm not sure on this (I traded
my Chansey away this morning for many many holo cards...sigh), but I'm
pretty sure that Chansey only has a retreat cost of one. This allows it
to get it out, use the moving wall, and retreat it easy. 80 damage you
say. Not bad but it does 80 to itself too. Don't just shrug off Chansey.
You can use pokemon center, scoop up, potion or many other cards to heal
it perfectly. I know I'm a Chansey fan;). Charizard, the WoTC proclaimed
"King of Fire Pokemon" (check the rulebook!) is okay. It can do a
hundred damage, frying anything except "Chansey: the King of Pokemon"
(Yes, I proclaim it that.) and another Charizard. The real goal is to
get prizes isn't it? The answer is YES.
