Another great set from TPCi. Congrats!

If we end up getting these cards here in North America what magazine would pick them up since Nintendo Power is gone in less than 2 months XD? Smile

I'm running Eelektabuzz. BDIF right here.

But seriously, this set is looking pretty nice. I'm not sure why they added those lines on Rocky Helmet, but whatever. Can't wait to see the rest of the set. This should be interesting.

And the streak of good sets in November is now...over.

Very disappointed that the rumors turned out to be true as it now makes this set one of the worst in the recent months IMO.

dmaster out.

Grumpig actually looks kinda fun with Hugh letting you hit 120 T2 with a {P} and a DCE.
I can't believe we actually lost those Trainers, this set now just seems...bad.

"However, Bicycle, Escape Rope, Ether, and Virbank City Gym have been cut in favor of Poke Ball, Great Ball, Potion, Switch, and Energy Search."

WHAT? They cut four great trainers in place of reprints of unused trainers? Unused trainers which are all still in format? Save for Switch of course.

At least we get some new supporters that will be useful. Skyla may not be as popular as the hype is though because people like the 100% consistency of draw support with random reciever. Im just glad it opens up options insteat of 4 N 4 Juniper and 1-4 Cheren/Bianca in nearly every deck.

Broken Pokemon EX · 10-20-2012 09:31 PM

Horrible. Totally horrible.

-several random, incomplete evolution lines
-3 FA Supporters (now the next set will only have 1)
-all of the playable trainers and the more playable stadium were cut for unnecessary reprints
-TWENTY FRIGGIN THREE Ultra Rares with 6 normal EXes, 6 Full Art EXes, 3 FA Supporters, 4 Ace Specs, and 4 Shinies

This set is a total nightmare for collectors and players alike since the only worthwhile cards are the ultra rares and blastoise. Congratz TPCi, this is probably the worst way you have handled any set since BW/EPO.

Unfezant reminds me of base pidgeot.

So about that Ditto. I thought it sounded useless before, but the wording made me wonder. Does this allow you to use Transform, then evolve that new Basic Pokemon (either Stage 1's or 2's)? It says Transform doesn't count as playing that new Basic Pokemon. If so, are you able to do that on the same turn Ditto is played? (Meaning in the same turn, play Ditto, use Transform, then evolve.) If you can do that, that's pretty nice. Maybe a little difficult to pull off, but still.

Please correct me if I'm wrong. lol I think I'm just making stuff up, either because of wishful thinking or just trying to find a reason for that Ditto's exsistance, let alone being holo.

Also, Full Art Bianca AND Skyla in the same set?! Ermahgerd! Do want.

I'm not sure what to think of this set, both as a collector and a player. First off, 150+ cards is a big set--a BIG set. And 23 ultra rares is rediculous! (I'm assuming Broken Pokemon EX's count is correct. Ha ha. And that TPCi didn't leave out any.) Second, assuming my luck isn't crappy (like it usually is) with this set and I DO get some ultra rares, fat chance they're going to be what I want for either my collection or especially for any decks. There's just too many. Also, I'm not too concerned about the 4 Trainers that were left out. (The one I wanted the most of the 4 was Virbank, but I think it fits in better with the next set.) However, it's totally not okay that they were replaced by reprints that no one uses (aside from Switch).

All that being said, I'm still looking forward to this set (somehow). Ha ha.

Turns in play carry over from Ditto to the new Pokemon, so If you played Ditto T1 and then played Deino on it T2, you could evolve that turn. it is the same as having deino in play in the first place.

Hey, I was right about that part! Spooky. That could have its uses, though. Either surprise factor, like going from a Ditto to a Stage 2, or playing it safe, like using it for Tynamos. So I assume playing Ditto, Transforming, then evolving in the same turn is a no go? (That's the only part I really wasn't sure about.)
