Kofu Supporter Card

The Kofu Supporter card can only be played if you have at least 2 cards in hand. Put 2 cards from your hand to the bottom of the deck in any order you like. Afterwards you draw 4 cards.

Supporter cards like Nemona only let you draw 3 cards and are considered bad in the competitive sense. This Kofu card lets you draw 4 with the drawback of putting 2 cards to the bottom of the deck before drawing 4. In terms of card advantage this is +2 card advantage which is not great. This card could be okay in Stage 2 evolution decks. I want to think this card could be okay in certain decks but I cannot see this being popular.

 

Veluza

Here is another Veluza card. This one is a 130 HP Basic Water Pokemon with two retreat cost and Lightning weakness. The ability of Prep Work makes the attack used by this Veluza cost one Colourless Energy less for each Kofu card in your discard pile.

Veluza's attack of Sonic edge costs four Courless Energy with an attack of 110 damage. The Sonic Edge attack is not affected by any effects on the opponent's Active Pokemon.

If you are able to get multiple Kofus in the discard pile then Veluza is a decent attacker. My issue is that the setup and Energy costs are a bit much to get multiple attacks going.

 

Crabrawler & Crabominable


Crabrawler

Crabrawler is a 90HP Fighting Basic Pokemon with three retreat cost, Psychic Energy. The attacks on it are very bad as the energy costs are high given the damage output. You only need this to evolve into Crabominable.

 

Crabominable

Crabominable is a Stage 1 Water Pokemon that evolves from Crabrawler. Its ability of Prep Work is the same as the Veluza ability. For each Kofu card in your discard pile attacks by Crabominable cost 1 Colourless Energy less.

The Haymaker attack costs one Water Energy and four Courless Energy which is really expensive. This attack does do 250 damage which knockouts almost any Basic Pokemon (single prize and two prize). The drawback is that you cannot use the Haymaker attack during the next turn unless you use something like Switch.

Because Crabominable is a non-rule Box Pokemon you can use Reversal Energy if you are behind in prizes to get 3 of any Energy type.

There is also an illustration rare for Crabominable. For me I don't know about this one. What are your thoughts on the art version of this card?

 

Thank you for reading.
