Ok, first I wasn't a Mantine fan at all and now I aren't any more. I mean really, how much can they spoil a Mantine? Only 1 attack that does 10 damage and removes a damage counter. 50 HP is something to laugh at--it's a joke. the only reason to use it: Use it's power to retreive a energy card and use vital drain to remove the damage counter it causes. Don't use it for battle.

4/10

Has potential for benefiting decks such as Camerupt ex and Tyranitar d - but the damage counter and low hp will mean this card isnt going to be around for long.
The attacks semi decent but this card wont be seeing much play soon.
3.5/10

Interesting, but not useful. There are more effective ways to get back discarded energy. 3/10

[~Solarys~]

Completely useless...
50hp is only good for feeding, cant even tank for a few turns early on.
Delcatty ex's Upstream works 10x better and does damage...

1.5/10

Absoutely sucks. If you want basic energy back just use Power tree. no explanation needed

0.1/10

It was useful in my prerelease but that's all. Since its HP is so low you can only use it for a short time - better to run Farmers or a good Stadium to retrieve energy.
