SM7a 'Fairy Rise' Announced!

[FlashRayquaza]

More Buzzwole support, Stakataka reduces damage done to Buzzwole. Please stop that!

 

[MegaPod_781]

Not really, actually no, not at all.

Well, for me it is

 

[Mr. Rhyperior]

220 HP? Wailord, period. Since it was a Hoenn-themed set, it make sense

 

[Lord Goomy]

If we get a 220HP Goodra, we could totally use the Flail Goomy from FLI. That'd be nice...
As long as we're dreaming.

 

[Nistua]

It's hype talk. They're trying to convince store owners the commons/uncommons won't be crapola. There will probably be one regular Pokemon with 220 HP, not all of them will be that high.

It's probably going to be a Wailord...
And for Wailord that would only be 20 hp more than 10 (!) years ago.

So the teasers are that there's significantly more power creep? What the hell dude, this is what is making Pokemon less fun. I'm pretty pissed about this

We already had a 200hp regular pokemon 10 years ago.

 

[Victor Freitas]

That's nice, specially the new supporter with the Computer Search effect, we need something like that in Standard. And finally Ultra Beasts are now definitely becoming a huge thing on their own, after two sets of strong support.

 

[AFEX]

Well, for me it is

I just don't see anything exciting about 2 mediocre sounding GX's and a 99 cent holo Sceptile.

 

[Eltyr]

I hate cards like this Sceptile that alone completely counter a deck.

 

[GamePhoenix]

That set sounds like the best possible news. Very excited. Post September? I forget when this comes out.

It comes out in August

 

[GamePhoenix]

I'm really hoping that the stadium will work for all types

 

[MegaPod_781]

I just don't see anything exciting about 2 mediocre sounding GX's and a 99 cent holo Sceptile.

I just happen to think they’re cool Pokémon, and they could be useful yet. Also, the 220 HP non-GX is what we’re speculating to be Wailord.

 

[Nick Tornell]

Sceptile rep, just need attack info now!

 

[Nyora]

stronger common and uncommon cards than usual

Does this mean that ill finally get a Magikarp that hits 200 for [W] 0:

 

[Weavile04]

Don't mind me. I'm just here for full art rayquaza.

 

[Memeses]

There should be a lake guardian GX, a Togekiss GX, or a Florges GX.

 

[John InCENAroar]

Is this a sign of the average hp of pokemon are going up

This is a Hoenn set. What pokemon was born in Hoenn and has a history of ridiculosly high HP? Oh yeah, that's right. Wailord.

 

[Merovingian]

I hope we get more RR boss Prism supporters. We are due for Maxie, Archie, Ghetsis, and Giovanni

 

[GM DracLord]

This is a Hoenn set. What pokemon was born in Hoenn and has a history of ridiculosly high HP? Oh yeah, that's right. Wailord.

I forgot that Whale exist for a second.

 

[Sethy79]

It's hard to say until we actually know the text of the cards, but I like some of the ideas out there. My son and I liked playing with the old Rayquazza EX battle deck. It was an interesting mechanic and could be quite explosive. We'll see how it competes with ultra necrozma/malamar though.

 

[Sethy79]

It's cool to see a new dimension valley-esque stadium. Especially if it can help out a typing that struggles because of attachment requirements. Still making it a prism star definitely limits its utility. One field blower and your deck would fall apart. Too bad.
