Card of the Day: Milotic​

Milotic – Water – HP110
Stage 1 – Evolves from Feebas

[W] Clear Search: Choose 3 cards from your deck and put them into your hand.
[W][C][C] Water Pulse: 60 damage. The Defending Pokemon is now Asleep.

Weakness: Lightning (x2)
Resistance: none
Retreat: 1
 
Awesome starting card if you can spare T1. It cures supporter droughts and has a 1 retreat cost, so I'd probably use it.
 
It's too counterable by N. You can search your deck for the perfect three cards, but your opponent will probably N them away. Also, it's probably not worth wasting an attack on a Stage 1 just to get cards out of your deck, which can be accomplished by draw supporters, or Roserade.
 
Milotic has a good first move, which helps set up your bench faster allowing you to draw any 3 cards from your deck. However, the trouble of this is once you draw out the 3 cards you need, it becomes your opponents turn, giving you opponent plenty of opportunities to either discard or shuffle the cards back into your deck. Second attack is pretty bad, w/ 3 energy dealing 60 damage while making it fall asleep. This card's HP is reasonable for a stage 1. The downfall with this card also is it's weakness to lightning, while having no resistance at the same time. The best counter for this card is the infamous deck ZekEels, which is still commonly used (for now). Overall, the card isn't completely useless, while being not too great either.

5/10
