Hi. This is Chris again, this time with the <<7th!!!>> review
in my single
card series: Neo Discovery Tyrogue! Thanks to Tyranitar from X-Swift for
the
idea! Below I'll list the statistics of the card and how to fix the
problems
or abuse the privileges...
**30 HP. Just like Elekid, I normally would be embarrassed to review a card
with 30, but the Baby Rule saves it, (see below)
**Baby Rule. The evil new rule that saves all of the babies. If tails, you
don't even receive an attack! I always flip tails, so this card is bad to
play against. Combine this with a Focus Band to leave a pathetic 25% chance
of being Knocked Out!
**Bottom Stats. Just like every Baby to date, there are no bottom stats.
The
free retreat just helps to shake off the negative conditions.
**Evolves 3 Ways. The Eevee of the future. You can always evolve to any of
the 3: Hitmonchan, Hitmontop, or Hitmonlee. But, since those other 3 are
already Basic Pokemon, I would much rather place them on the Bench, not
evolve Tyrogue.
**Smash Punch. While playing against Tyranitar over the Internet, I noticed
he had some Tyrogues in play. I really hated those. This helped to inspire
me
to write an article on it. Smash Punch will do severe damage to an
Electabuzz
if heads. I couldn't even defend myself against those little devils. For
one
Colorless Energy, you have a 50/50 chance of 30 damage. I think that's
really
good.
