POTENTIAL TO DO 80 DAMAEG AGAINST MEWTWO EX
omg broken/10

Today's CotD is Gothita from EP...I dunno about anyone else, but I always found this Pokemon and its evolutionary line to be kinda creepy. Statwise 60 HP is average for a Basic, x2 Weakness to sychic: is meh, no Resistance is common, and :colorless: to Retreat is cheap. Hypnotic Gaze puts a Defending to Sleep for :colorless:, and Double Slap deals 20x the number of Heads you get with 2 coins for :colorless::colorless:, so yeah...nothing special. I guess in terms of the superior Pokemon, this one is a better option than the other EP one, which has similar stats but only 1 attack for 20 for 2 Energy, at least this one offers Sleep (bad, but better than nothing) and a similar attack that averages out to 20.

Modified - 6/10 - Used to get to Gothitelle...well that's about it really

Limited - 5/10 - Ok if you have the whole evolutionary line, otherwise I wouldn't bother since it's weak as a stand-alone Basic

Unlimited - 1/10 - No use here, weak and easily KOed

Why do people always post stupid comments like this?

Anyway, it can get 2 turn sniped by Glaciate, psychic weakness is horrible with cards like Mewtwo Ex, and its second attack is luck based. Not sure why Pokegym even has cards like this for COTD -- they're not meant to be good. They're just basics to slap on the bench until you can get stage 2's out.
