It just occurred to me that Palafin ex could be them testing the waters for how to re-implement Mega Evolution into the TCG for the inevitable PL:Z-A themed sets next year. (Pseudo-evolving from a single prizer kinda like Lv.X/BREAK? Extra HP and a busted attack in exchange for the awkwardness?)

These are some nice looking renders. Should've been the poses the Pokemon used for their official stock/"main" artwork.

Love it. Would've been cool if they snuck in the shiny forms in there. I wonder if there is some internal rule the TCG has about Shiny Pokemon only appearing in special rarities/card variants exclusive to shinies.

I'd say Baxcalibur is also due for an ex, but then again Kalosian Goodra still has 0 chase cards after 10+ years.

The Loyal Three repping their secondary types but receiving some kind of bonus for using [D] energy is actually exactly the kind of thing I wanted to see their first cards do! Hopefully their ex cards will have some cool synergy with each other + Pecharunt ex. I think it'd be amusing if they...

First ever Dragon-type Dreepy line!

I've always felt Scizor should've been a rival to Scyther like Heracross is to Pinsir rather than an evolution. Imagine how much more love Scyther would've received over the years if that was the case.

So there hasn't even been a non-type-shifted Tera ex since the introduction of type-shifted Teras, right? (Bearing in mind that Greedent and Dragonite originated earlier than Obsidian Flames in Japan.) I'm glad because changing types is the big appeal of the Terastal mechanic (especially in the...

My prediction for Stellar Type is that it will basically be an updated Crystal Type. -it will be an Ability on the card, just like how Crystal Type was a Poke Body (wouldn't make sense to replace the Tera Pokemon rule since it's still a Tera Pokemon and adding a 3rd "rule" on the card would get...

Probably won't start appearing until the Terapagos ex which ought to be SV11, but I wonder if they'll implement Stellar Type as a subcategory of Tera Pokemon ex. Perhaps something similar to Crystal Type from way back when? Not quite how it works in the games, but when has that stopped the TCG?

Calling it: Ogerpon's other 3 forms won't get their own cards but will be featured as Ace Specs, similar to how the Hero forms of the wolves never got cards but appeared on their respective Rusted Tool cards.

Weird that they even included Tusk and Treads in the SV base set if they were just going to give them Ancient and Future ex cards less than a year later. That could've been Klawf ex and Orthworm ex in the base set instead.

The Shiny set for SWSH's first year included every Galar native species (including regional forms) minus the Shiny locked Legendaries, yeah? I'd predict the same here except also maybe no Shiny Paradoxes since they just got introduced and I don't think the reprint sets ever include cards from...

Mane and Thorns being left out of that artwork makes me suspect that they'll debut in Shiny Treasure, again paralleling the UBs (Xurk, Phero, and Celesteela debuted in that year's High Class Pack).
