It's pretty good. You don't really need without flipping a coin for Giga Thunderbolt. But very nice cards. I'm not a fan of Rival but the built in Rival's alright cuz at least you're not wasting a supporter on it. Only got 1 Q. What is their HP?

I'm wondering what would happen if out of the 5 cards you chose (with lighting Z) YOU didn't choose any lighting energy... Personally I would change the text to "any 5 diffrent cards" if you selected 3 of the same card you would be guaranteed at least one of them.

He specified that if the opponent doesn't choose a lightning energy that the opponent receives a damage counter on 1 of their Pokemon.

This is just like Rival. If 3 of the same cards or more appear, then your opponent has no choice but to choose that card. So if 3 lightning energy were to pop up, then the opponent has no choice but to give that player a lightning energy. In this case, as much as you'd hate to give the Electivire C owner lightning energy, you might want to give them 1 to spare your Pokemon from receiving a damage counter. Say if 1 of your benched Pokemon is 1 damage counter away from being knocked out. You'd better give that player a lightning energy or down goes that benched Pokemon that is 1 damage counter away from being knocked out.

That Poke-Power is requires a little more strategy than rival, cuz if you make a tactical error, it could be a fatal error. I'd probably have fun with this card if it were real. Scare my opponent's into giving me lightning energies to help me charge up Electivire C.

Lightning Z is utterly ridiculous.

It doesn't even say 5 different cards, so basically you just choose 2 each of the cards you want and something else. It's like playing 2 Poke Drawers a turn for nothing. It's Pidgeot's Quick Search X2 on a Basic LV X.

At least make it a coming-into-play Power.
