There are lots of helpful Pokemon TCG cards.


Kyurem (Noble Victories 34)

Kyurem can help damage Pokemon. With its Glaciate attack, Kyurem does 30 damage to each of your opponents Pokemon, including the active. that can knock out Pokemon such as Magikarp and Solosis



Landorus (Noble Victories 74)

If you need energy, and you have a lot of them in your Discard Pile, Landorus is helpful. When Landorus uses its Abundant Harvest attack, you can attach an energy from your discard pile to your Basic Pokemon. Also, you can still attach the energy from the, "1 Energy For Each Turn" rule.




Reshiram (Black and White 26,113, BW Promo 004)

Reshiram is helpful, for its Blue Flare attack. Though you have to discard 2 {R}, you can still use Landorus's Abundant Harvest attack to get energy back on to Reshiram to attack again. Blue Flare does 120 damage, knocking out most Basic Pokemon, some Stage 1, and some Stage 2 Pokemon.


Tornadus (Emerging Powers 89, 98)

Tornadus can help you move energy around and do damage at the same time. Energy Wheel lets you move 1 energy from 1 of your benched Pokemon to your active Pokemon. Hurricane does the opposite and also does 80 damage.



Virizion (Emerging Powers 17), Terrakion (Emerging Powers 63), and Cobalion (Emerging Powers 77)

Virizion, Terrakion, and Cobalion are useful for their Sacred Sword attack. it does 100 damage. but, you can't use Sacred Sword the next turn. This knocks out most Basic Pokemon, and a few stage1 Pokemon.



Victini (Noble Victories 15)

Victini can do really quick damage. In 2 turns, Victini can do 100 damage with V-Create, but you need to have at least 5 benched Pokemon. that means in 3 turns, Victini can do 200 damage!


Mewtwo EX (Next Destinies 54)

Mewtwo EX has a very powerful Psydrive attack. It does 120 damage, but you have to discard 1 energy from Mewtwo EX. Since you can attach 1 energy per turn, you can do 120 damage each turn! That means in 2 turns, you can knock out any Pokemon!



Blaziken (Dark Rush 12)

Blaziken has an extremely powerful attack. It's Flamethrower. you can do 130 damage for 3 energies, but you have to discard 1 energy attached to Blaziken. Since you can attach 1 energy per turn, you can knock out any Pokemon in 2 turns!



Pokemon Catcher (Emerging Powers 95, Dark Rush 76)

Pokemon Catcher is really a great card and expensive. It lets you switch your opponent's defending Pokemon with 1 of their benched Pokemon.



Emboar (Black and White 19)

Emboar is a great card because you can do 150 damage with its Flare Blitz attack. After you attack, you also have to discard all {R} from Emboar. Also, it's HP is high with 150 HP. Its high HP lets this card stay out for a lot of turns.



I hope this guide really helps you on helpful and useful cards in the Pokemon TCG.
 
This isn't much of a guide. You need to write quite a bit more and give us more reasons. You also tripped up quite a bit. Mewtwo EX isn't good because of its second attack. It is good because of its first attack and its HP. You said that the Emerging Powers musketeer trio were good... in actuality, the trio from Noble Victories is the good trio.

Supply combos! A common combo is Emboar with the Ability and Reshiram BW. That way, you can power out Blue Flare every turn.

Nice try, but big damage doesn't mean everything. Write a bit more and focus more on attacking every turn rather than just doing big damage.
 
A lot of the stuff you mentioned everybody knows. You need to go more in depth. As mentioned above, nobody cares about mewtwo's second attack. There are some other mistakes as well.
 
Don't feel bad. It's a pretty good list, but it can be improved. I wasn't trying to hate. I was just trying to give constructive criticism. A lot of the stuff people already know or can tell by looking at the cards. Damage doesn't mean everything. For reshiram, you could mention it can be combo'd with typhlosion and emboar. You could have also mentioned decks it can fit into or be teched into, such as Donphan and Dragons, 6 corners, etc. When people give you criticism, don't make them feel bad. Try to improve on it.
 
You should add in:

Kingdra Prime

Gengar Prime

Yanmega Prime

Feraligatr Prime

Typhlosion Prime

and some others! :D
 
It's great that you want to help out, but if you really want other people to benefit, you should be open to criticism.

Most of your descriptions are very weak.

Pokemon Catcher (Emerging Powers 95, Dark Rush 76)

Pokemon Catcher is really a great card and expensive. It lets you switch your opponent's defending Pokemon with 1 of their benched Pokemon.

All this says is what the card's effect is. I could go and look that up in the scans on PB's main site. You should list what cards it combos with, or what specific uses it has. This is a very broad description with very little detail. Maybe provide some decklists or strategies that capitalize on the card's potential. This makes the article much more informative. :)

It's also helpful to provide links to the cards. Instead of saying Kyurem (Noble Victories 24) (this is incorrect btw, it's Noble Victories 34), say Kyurem (NV34). Furthermore, the post is very disorganized. It would be helpful to bold the subheadings, and organize the cards by set, type, or whatever you want (specify how you're organizing them, too.) A lot of these haven't been released in English, so you should specify which ones are and which ones aren't.
