Very good against Exeggcutor but a prepared player will
have that crucial
cesation crystal or warp point and Cloppers becomes
another Stage 1 to KO.
Still, a safeguard attack is welcome. A good alrounder
but not fantastic.
3/5

Dusclops
The Hp could have been a little higher but overall
decent scince a lot of people use special energys and ex
pokemon, so long as you have time to attach the energys
maybe using double rainbow energy or scramble.

Dusclops – Crystal

Hello there. Dusclops is a card that seems to never
quite be good enough for the format to be used much.
There are 4 Dusclops out in modified format that are
listed here; Dusclops CG 17/100 (the COTD,) Dusclops PK
14/108, Dusclops EX EM 94/106, Dusclops DX 7/107. They
all are not quite good enough to use without to much
support. It is still a good grab if you could combo the
COTD Dusclops (or another form of stall) and the EX EM
one and you could do 160 damage with 8 energies on
Dusclops EX EM (you might even want to toss in a line of
metagross DX for energy acceleration.) Hmmm… Now that I
think about it that might make a fine deck… 160
unblockable damage (drools… =P) In any case this card
falls just short of a great card (If Cursed Glare worked
on all of your opponents pokemon, then it might be a
different story.)
Pros –
Nice resistance (third only to lightning and psychic.)
Anti-EX that can’t be Latilocked
An OK weakness
Cons –
Only 70 HP
Cursed Glare doesn’t work on benched Poke’s
Psychic (lots of psychic protection going around)
Unlimited - 1/5 Not big enough for a Sneasle filled
world
Modified – 3/5 It breaks Latilock, has other good
Dusclops’ to work with, and can beat up Holon’s Poke’s.
Limited – 4/5 Makes up for in power, accessibility, and
EX crushing what it lacks in HP.
That’s it for now,
“You have to be yourself, nobody else wants the job.”
