Lore:

During your Main Phase 2 only: You can discard this card; add 1 Level 3 or lower EARTH monster (except this card) from your Deck to your Hand. During either player's Battle Phases, if this card is in the Graveyard and your opponent activates a Monster Effect: You can banish this card; reduce that monster's ATK by 1000 until the End Phase. You can only use the effects of "Pimpin Guardian" once per turn.

Huh, this card is actually kinda neat. I like how it's MP2 only, so you can't just set up right then and there for your big push. For design's sake, it'd probabky be a good idea to put a OPT clause on him, but it's not a pressing issue that must be addressed. The other effect seems a bit annoying to play against, like it rewards you just a little too much for drawing him. Maybe lower the ATK loss?

I thought this said 'Pimpin Guardian'. I am dissapoint.

 

The discard thing sort of works, as the Battle Phase has to have happened in order for this to work. This means there are times when it could be unusable, such as drawing it first turn and the like. It also has a useful secondary effect that seems pretty balanced.

 

Maybe you should only be able to use the effect of 'Pimpin Guardian' (the name sticks) once per turn? Would that make it a little fairer? 

 

Overall, is nice.

 

Edit: Sora sort of ninja'd my point.

I think you should not allow it to search itself, as it might turn into a deck thinner, I know its only once per turn and you would need 3 turn to thin 3 cards, still he is too splashable IMO.

I can not even compare my "yugioh experience" to almost everyone on this site, though I still think it is too splashable, it is a searcher for OTK decks, limited cards, semi-limited cards and hand traps.

Flip, burn and heal as well as battle searchers is what comes to my mind first as I read the second effect, but ATK reducing resultes in nothing here. IDK maybe I am not seeing what this effect is ment for. :s

 

I hope this helped. :)

I agree with Basara, don't let it search itself, add a 'except this card' clause in there. As said, it would work in Madolches(which I find annoying, but I digress). I can't really say much that hasn't already been said. Fix up the OCG and add in that clause and I think you are golden.
