Here's a Christmas tree for you!

Those are some pretty pathetic attacks. Two energy for 30 plus a 50% chance of 10 damage recoil? Two retreat cost on a Basic? Don't use our little friend here for anything but a Christmas tree, unless you want to play Abomasnow (which doesn't impress)!
 
Dunno why Snover > Abomasnow. I guess it might look more tree-like with snow, but then again where I live snow is just about non-existent :(

Anyways, Snover is a typical Basic. 60 HP is standard, +10 Weakness to Fire is managable, no Resistence, but 2 Retreat Cost makes him hard to get out if you start with him. Curiosity is ok, as you can scout out your opponent's hand and determine whether or not you want to play that TGW in your hand. Snowball Fight does an ok 30 for 2 Energy, with a chance of 10 damage recoil.

Modified - 5/10 (Only option here if you want to use Abomasnow, which isn't terribly good itself)
Limited - 7/10 (I can see it being useful here with Abomasnow, splashable in a Water-oriented theme as well while offering different typing)
Unlimited - 1/10 (No business being here)
Christmas theme - 10/10 (Combine with Stantler, Jynx, and Delibird for maximum effect)
 
10 damage to itself for 30 against opp. No thanks. Just YUK it sucks as does abomasnow so dont play it unless you dont have anything else or for fun play!

1/10
 
Mod: 1/10 Would be better if Abomosnow was better.
Lim: 6/10 Good if you pulled Abomosnow.

Holiday: 9/10 Christmas tree.
 
Awww what a cute lil tree.

This card is ok. Looking at your opponents hand can be somwehat helpful. Knowing cards they have is never a bad thing, and like mentioned, maybe u should play that tgw soon.

30 damage is decent for 2 and its 50/50 chance of recoil, so u may come out of that snowball fight without a flake of snow on you ^^

All in all

mod 5/10 (Just one of those everyday basics)

Limited. 6/10 (Now just pull its bigger fluffier self and your good to go)

O christmas tree,
O christmas tree,
Where are all your branches?
It's not really a tree and making not really needed in a deck.
30 for 2 is great on any basic, recoil just kills it!

Nice joke POP
 
I will make a Christmas tree out of Snovers at Nats if people bring (or mail) me some. I'll then hold a side event to determine who wins the tree. YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST. PM me to be kept up to date on this.

(Remind anyone of the Space Weedle?)
