Overview: Kricketune from the New Next Destinies Booster Set

          Overview:
                    Today's Pokemon card review is my 1st one on the new Next Destinies expansion set. This card is a Stage 1, Grass-type Pokemon with an Hp of 90, and evolves from Kriketot. This card does not have a Pok-power or Poke-body, but it does have 2 moves, the 1st one being White Noise which does 20 damage and states that the defending Pokemon is now asleep, all requiring 1 colorless energy. The 2nd move is Draining Cut which does 40 damage times the number of heads you get when you flip 2 coins. It also states to heal from this Pokemon the same amount of damage you do to the defending Pokemon. This card has a weakness to Fire-types which doubles the damage done to this card by 2. This card has no resistance and has a retreat cost of 1 colorless energy card. This card is a rare 4/99 card.

          SuperZekrom3001's Opinion:
                    My opinion on this card is to use White Noise to get the defending Pokemon asleep for a little while which gives you time to power up this Pokemon for its other moves as well as power up your benched Pokemon. If that doesn't work then hopefully you have enough time to power up its 2nd move to deal major damage and also heal yourself at the same time then retreat on your next turn and bring out a stronger Pokemon to take its place.

          Ranking:
                    I would give this card a 4/5. My reasoning for this ranking is because this card is pretty much in my opinion, a last resort card. You can use it to do major damage, then bring out a stronger Pokemon to finish off the defending Pokemon and win an easy prize card.

        For further notice, i will not be doing prices anymore except on special cards. If you would like to know the prices of the cards, then you can go to poke-order.com, professor-oak.com, or ebay.
