might work, but seems like a bit too much energy recycling is needed there IMO. if we had some simillar to yvetal small for water, then yes i could see it working really well
Maybe with the Rayquaza from GRI? Could also do something like Energy Recycler and Palkia EX

Can't wait for Golisopod's Rainbow Rare, by far the best RR so far. Not to mention the fact that it's a good card. Guzma is a meta-changing card, even before Lysandre rotates it will be included for the emergency switch as well.

I like the subtlety of the "If you do" on Guzma. It just means you can't use him as a switching card if your opponent doesn't have Benched Pokémon. Smart way of making sure the player-base use him as he was intended to be used.

Wait, so they are doing a FA and RR for Tapu Bulu in Burning Shadows?

I don't see why they woudn't Lele and Koko had both and Fini being part of a set instead of a deck (unlike say, Diancie-EX or Audino-EX in Japan entitles her to those as well. In fact, Bulu being part of the same set as Fini (In Japan) would likely mean he also would get them sooner or later. (though I admit cases like Hau and the Starters did make murky ATM)

If not Burning Shadows, then i expect that the SM 4 set would have a lot of extra room with Shining Legends being its own thing.

I just realized that Gardevoir had 230 HP. Not sure how I feel about that but it should be able to tank a hit I guess. I also see nothing good coming out of an Ability called Secret Spring on a Gardevoir card but I guess they gave us Salazzle too... Never mind, withdrawing my last statement.

That GX Attack is so good! The attack "Infinite Force" is a little risky as it mostly depends on how much Energy cards the opponent's Active Pokemon has, but nonetheless a very great card!

#93??!! @steffenka ,it is now #totallyRuined!!
My guess is Secret Fountain before Secret Spring. Don't worry, Ditto Queen. I highlighted it.
