Modified - Bind Down
isn't a great attack, it's just good for stalling if you
don't want the opponent retreating for something else. Leaf
Guard is pretty good as a finishing move. KO the Defending
Pokemon and receive 20 less damage on your next turn. It's
like having a buffer piece attached as an attack. 3/5
Limited - Good, cheap damage and reduce damage done to it by
20! The opponent will have a hard time knocking it out.
Great card here. 4/5

Hey everyone, I've been away for a little while, but I
wanted to get back with a review of a new card. Today we
have the other of the new Eeveelutions, the grass-type
Leafeon!
Name: Leafeon Lv. 42
Set: Majestic Dawn
Rarity: Rare Holo
Analysis: Leafeon would definitely be a good addition to
the Eevee family except for its fire-type Weakness. But
then you also have Vaporeon and Glaceon to help with
that. Leafeon will have a very good Lv. X and will also
benefit from the new Umbreon and Espeon's powers, which
erases weakness and retreat cost and increases maximum
HP. Now let's focus on this specific card: 90 HP is
decent for a Stage 1, and the Resistance to water-type
is good to counter the metagame counters (that's going
deep, lol). As I said before, the fire-type Weakess is
dreadful, and the Retreat Cost of 2 is expensive (both
of which improve with Umbreon). 'Bind Down' is a cheap
attack for 30 damage and lock-in. 'Leaf Guard', in my
opinion is great because it does 60 damage and
automatically guards Leafeon from 20 damage from any
attack during your opponent's next turn. The normal
Leafeon is OK, but its Level X is going to be great,
especially with Sceptile. Add that with all the other
Eeveelutions, and Leafeon will be great.
Modified: Not great by itself, but with a good
supporting cast it can be. (4/5)
Limited: Great in limited. Leaf Guard only requires 1
specific energy and protects Leafeon! Plus you might get
other Eeveelutions to help it out. (4.5/5)

Leafeon Lv.42 MD
Welcome back all you dudes and dudettes, today’s
COTD today is the new Leafeon from Mysterious Dawn.
This is a great addition to the Eevee evolution set,
not many pokemon have good evolutions, but Eevee has
7! Leafeon is good, but the introduction of Leafeon
Lv.X (Hopefully in the same set.) will make this
card awesome. Leafeon has weak attacks, 30 for (G)
is nice, but 60 for (G)(C)(C) isn’t, neither of the
attacks have good enough effects either. 90 HP is
decent for a stage 1 (Slightly sub-par but…) And the
fire weakness stinks, but Umbreon and Espeon help
the Eons get over it! (Umbreon gives +20 HP to all
Eevee evo’s and Espeon negates weakness for them.)
Pros –
Eevee Evolution
Decent first attack
Nice Lv.X
Cons –
Fire Weakness
Sub-par HP
A bit 2 much retreat
Attacks could be better.
Modified – I can’t wait for the Eeveelutions to come
out! 4/5
Limited – still good for 30 for (G) even without
Lv.X. 4/5
Oh, Mysterious Dawn, please have that Unown P I’ve
been waiting for!
