Pokemon TCG: EX Hidden Legends Theme Deck Review

The new theme decks for the EX Hidden Legends set are Wish Maker and Forest Guardian. Here's the breakdown on each deck.

Wish Maker - Metal/Psychic/Water Pokemon Theme Deck

With three types of Pokemon in this deck, it can get tricky to get the energy you need to power your attacks. If you get the right energy though, you can cause a lot of damage - up to 120 points in one attack with Metagross! There are also lots of Pokemon that reduce the damage they take, so they'll stick around in a battle. Watch out for Lightning and Psychic Pokemon though.

Wish Maker Theme Deck Thumbs Up:

Tricky to get the energy you need.

Forest Guardian - Grass/Dark Pokemon Theme Deck

This deck is a little light on the attack power but has some powerful tricks to mess up your opponent's Pokemon and to heal your own critters. Forest Guardian is mostly a Grass Pokemon deck but has a splash of Dark added in to boost its low attacks. Watch out for decks with Fire Pokemon and you'll be all set.

Forest Guardian Theme Deck Thumbs Up:

Useful Pokemon powers.

Some healing powers.

Forest Guardian Theme Deck Thumbs Down:

Not much attack power.
