Pokemon Plasma Freeze Card Review: Cofagrigus

Cofagrigus Plasma Freeze Pokemon Card
Card Overview:
Today's card is from the plasma freeze set. Cofagrigus is a stage 1, psychic type Pokemon card, with an hp of 100.  It is x2 weak to dark type Pokemon, no resistance type, and a two colorless energy card retreat cost.  Cofagrigus's Ability, Six Feet Under says you may knock out Cofagrigus during your turn if you'd like, if you choose to do this, you may put three damage counters on each of your opponent's Pokemon.  Cofagrigus has just one move called the slap of misfortune, this move requires three energy cards, two psychic and one colorless, and does 70 damage, plus if your opponent flips a coin during their next turn you can always treat it as tails.


Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Cofagrigus is a stage 1 Pokemon card, you'll first have to get Yamask into play (I reviewed both Yamask cards from this set the past couple of days) and then evolve Yamask into Cofagrigus.  Like I mentioned earlier there are two Cofagrigus cards in the Plasma Freeze set, so please read tomorrow's review if you want to know which one I like better.  If you read my Yamask reviews, you'll know that I thought both Yamask card was about average, but if you're going to use this Cofagrigus card in your deck, you'll want to use the first Yamask card I reviewed from this set, the one that does spread damage.  That way, when you have some damage on your Pokemon, you can move Yamask into the active Pokemon spot, use its only move to get that damage off of your Pokemon, then right before Yamask is going to be knocked out, evolve it into Cofagrigus and use Cofagrigus's Ability to knock it out, and then do 30 damage to all of your opponent's benched Pokemon.  If you're building a spread damage type deck, this line of Yamask and Cofagrigus should definitely be in it.  I would suggest using a 2-2 line.

Pokemon Card Rating: 
I would give this card a 4 out of 5 rating.  In my opinion this is an above average stage 1 Pokemon card.  I really like this card for a spread damage type deck, if you use two Cofagrigus in your deck and use their Ability on each card, you could easily knock out some basic Pokemon without doing any other attacks.  So I would highly recommend this card for a spread damage type deck, even its only move does above average damage.  Overall, the line of Yamask (the first one) and Cofagrigus (the first one) from the Plasma Freeze set gets a 4 out of 5 rating, both work quite well together.
