Ok, lets take a look at Team Rocket's Scyther
Stats:
60 HP(decent, remember he's a basic)
1 Retreat(not AS good as the Jungle but we're not
done)
G Shadowy Image - Whenever this card takes damage,
flip a coin, if tails then Team Rocket's Scyther will take no damage(Any other
effects still apply). This effect remains until Scyther is no longer in
play.
GCC Sickle Slash 40
If you ask me this is one of the top cards in the
game. On turn 1 you use Shadowy Image and your opponent has a 50% chance
of dealing damage to Scyther. Then on turn 2 start dishing it out.
I play 3 of these in my all japanese deck. And since he has the
"Team Rocket's" part in front of his name, you can add the Jungle
Scyther with him. I don't know about most people but I am really
anticipating the Gym I & II Expansions a lot more than the Team Rocket
set, Team Rocket has hardly anything to offer that Gym II has, especially
Rocket's Zapdos. Why weren't the awesome Rocket pokemon in their set,
the world may never know.
I'd rate this card an 8/10, hes got the resitance
and the attacks, but his HP isnt quite top notch.
