Really? A Zekrom/Reshiram coin? Aren't we long past the Black and White generation? Anyway, I've always liked 3 pack blisters, but having no actual XY coins is just silly.
Having Toxcicroak EX and Magnezone EX in Wild Fire and Hawlucha EX in Rising Fist, does that mean we'll get some non-mega stage 1/2 EXes every set? I'm totally down for those! Please give us a Zoroark EX (Full Art) and I'll probably be playing this for the rest of my life :'D
However the meta isn't going to be that black and white (no pun intended). As I see it TPCi is forcing a meta with threeway of Grass-Water-Fire (With their respective Gen 1 Mega evolutions to hopefully go along with it) while Dark and Fairy also having a pressence.
It won't stop people to play...
Still, Scarmory EX is bad. Tooldrop isn't nearly as popular as it used to be: it has kinda lost its hype. Therefore considering this card soley for the purpose of countering tooldrop doesn't seem like a very smart choice. Skarmory doesn't even have a clear win against Tool Drop since it only...
Well actually, N being a high number promo doesn't really mean much since they'll probably rotate the remaining promos all in one go anyway. That is pretty likely since the last regular set version of N was printed back in Dark Explorers.
I've heard some rumours about Beach getting rotated...
Shadow Circle is worth the place of Virbank when playing some sort of Yveltal EX deck. Because a TDK matchup with a Thundurus EX and a couple Deoxys EX benched is a pretty scary situation. Then again a single counter stadium would work against that but hey, still a valid option.
And don't...
After getting Tornadus EX last pre-release, I had hoped on something a little better than just a semi-playable card. Maybe if they'd gave out playable EXes as pre-release promos, it'd be something worth going to a pre-release for.
But what can you do, I'll guess Aegislash is okay since it was...
I thought of something alike myself only it'd go with something like this. "The player who goes first can attack, but their attack won't do any damage to the Opponent's defending or benched Pokémon."
You do have a point, and I'd like to see how this all works out when the X&Y sets are actually...
Now we're doing best out of three in tournaments these days, isn't that actually an option?
I would've love to see another PONT-like card. But I'm pretty sure that would nullify N entirely. I do think we need some different drawing-supporterst hough. I feel that the just combination of...
Exactly. Pokémon TCG needs some form of board-control. Now the only that form of board-control we had is nerfed to be luck based. Like someone stated before in this thread, PTCG has the appearance of being entirely luck-based, and this isn't doing that any favours.
Next thing you know cards...
I think Catcher is great for the mindset that Bench-sitters are never safe. Just the thought of that alone, made the game so much more interesting. Also seeing your opponent set up the perfect combo without any ability to prevent that from happening is the worst. I really think TPCi should've...
If you read more carefully you'll see that this affects only the Japanese TCG starting November. So unless you live in Japan, this won't affect any of us here.
Though it makes me wonder if this has anything to do with the fac that they might be planning to even up the releases of the Japanese...
Anyone got a word on how common Pokémon Catcher is in this set? I know it's ridiculously hard to find any in EP and hopefully it's a little bit easier to get your hands on them through Plasma Blast. (@PB I don't mean PB when saying P B)
