My reviews
and ratings are for Modified only.
Typhlosion from Dragon Frontiers
Modified 2/5 - I think its attack and Poke-Power are okay. So
the problem lies in consistency - the risk and reward factor.
First of all, Stage 2 Pokemon needs to be more game-breaking,
and I don't think Shady Move is game-breaking. Also, 3 Energies
for 60 is average. Okay, maybe an average of 70 damage because
of Burn, but by the time you can start doing 60-70 damage per
turn, you'll almost certainly fall behind in prizes.
This is not good, because without cards such as Rocket's Admin
and POW! Hand Extension, in a 30 minute game, falling behind in
prizes will make things tough.

Typhlosion d - Dragon
Frontiers
Personally I'm not seeing anything game breaking here.
He may well see play in some Typhlosion decks, but in my
opinion the UF Typhlsion is a little superior to this
one. Shady move is quite nice with the UF Typhlosion to
move damage onto it for a bigger Rage, or just to hurt
your opponent a little more whilst healing. The attack
isn't doing anything too spectacular buts OK I guess.
Knocking out Mew ex so easily is a nice ability to have,
without it being able to knock you out in 1 hit with
weakness. Personally I just think something like Bannete
ex is a superior version of the basic structure and
attributes of this card.
Cards that could go with this well include Double
Rainbow energy, Typhlosion UF and Full Flame.
Unlimited 1/5

The 4th card from Ex
Dragon Frontier, Typhlosion.
This is a very nice looking card. Stage 2, 100HP,
psychic type, weakness to water, and one retreat cost.
Shady Move is the same Power on Banette ex. Banette's a
better choice because it's way easier to get it out.
Burning Ball is a decent attack that gets a boost with
some fire energies.
