Hello Pojo

Okay. I know that everybody, including the Pojo magazine, says that this guy is really bad. I was trying to think along the lines of my philosophies on the rarity of certain cards, and why this one is a rare-holographic. The reason is because his attack (nor the rulebook, for that matter) doesn't specifically state that you do not apply weakness or resistance for his Chain Lightning attack, therefore his is one of the ultimate Raindance killers. He does 40 to the defender, and then 20 to every lightning weak Pokemon on the bench. I know that most of you are probably saying that not all Raindance Pokemon are lightning weak, and you would be very correct. Gyarados and Articuno both do not have Lightning weakness, but with the growing use of Dewgong, the Gyarados part is almost all taken care of. The Articuno, however, is not so easily taken down. He is weak to nothing, but Electrode's attack still hurts the opponent's bench. This makes it easier to take out Blastoise, since he's usually a bench-warmer. Although the Base Electrode is also awesome, he does not have the ability to weaken the opponent's bench, and has lower HP. Don't get me wrong though, I believe that he is also a great Raindance killer(100 damage to all Raindancers except for Gyarados and Articuno.).
