Well once again i will talk about charizard.  He is a card everyone wants, but noone uses.  He's decent in sage fire but that deck is very slow.  He is usefull now and then.  The only time i would use him is when i have 2 doubs in my hand.  Spin for a ko. Equip a doub spin for a ko. nother doub nother ko. then hes just a bout dead and u got three kos. Of caurse mime, charizard and chansy and maybe fossil haunter dont die but u get the idea.  I got one on the last pack of base i bought. I bought 2 venasuars got lass and clefairy, not bad but i set out for charizard when i went to the store.  i bought a cahraizard pack next  and a scoop up appeared.  The prices were high ($5) so i left.  After i was half way down the block, i realized i had a bad pack/holo ratio.  I went in and told the cashier not to let me buy anymore packs after this next one.  i reached for a blastoise and then remembered a tip i got about checking thickness in packs.  The same blastoise i reached for was the thickest and it was Charizard.  I plan on trading it for alot of stuff cause i know some desperate for charizard kids ( i wont ripp em off but plan for a good trade).  Anyway, i really dont hate charizard that much anymore.  I normaly dodnt do stage 2's so i will never play him. He has strength but without 2 doubs in your hand, he wil  be killed prety fast. I habve nothin worth while to say anymore so this will proabably be my last big red fire lizard article unless i get a new idea or am replyin to someone else
