    Target Pulls Pokemon TCG Products from All U.S. Stores Amid Attack Incident

    Can Pokemon just host a hunger games-like event where scalpers fight to the death over a pack of cards? I'd pay to see that.

    Japan's April Pokemon TCG Supplies Revealed!

    When the comparison between the quality of Pokemon products that Japan receives versus what the rest of the world receives makes you feel damn near suicidal... I mean, come on! They get sleeves, deckboxes and playmats with various beautiful art styles and we get Ken Sugimori artwork lazily...

    'Matchless Fighter' Revealed as March's Japanese Set!

    Doubt it. It wouldn't be the first time that an artist doing an assortment of card arts decided to have some fun with a few of them like this.

    With Virtually No New Covid Cases, Play! Pokemon Events Return to Australia and New Zealand!

    The thing is that the cases being recorded are people coming back from overseas and are already doing their two week quarantine stint. Almost none of the cases recorded in the last few months were community cases and in the event that it was a community case, the entire state went into lockdown...

    DP remakes and pre-quel announced!

    Chances are that they either do them by incorporating them into the story, or they won't. Remember, while they integrated Deoxys into ORAS, they didn't integrate Jirachi and in fact, only gave it out as part of the Pokemon 20th anniversary events, which include almost all legendary Pokemon...

    DP remakes and pre-quel announced!

    Highly doubt it. Remakes usually incorporate elements of the sister game while using the names of the two base games (because two games make more money than one) such as HGSS having the Suicune story line from Crystal and ORAS giving Rayquaza a more important story role like in Emerald (Rayquaza...

    DP remakes and pre-quel announced!

    Very happy about the Gen IV remakes. I find it funny how some people are unhappy with the way they look, complaining that they should like Sword and Shield, despite the fact that Pokemon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire was also done in a similar style and looked nothing like X and Y. While, I'll...

    Pokémon the Movie: Secrets of the Jungle Releasing in 2021

    As far as I can tell there are two different Zarudes. There is the normal one (which is the one we're getting and that Japan has already got) and there is Dada Zarude (the one with the pink cape) which Japan will get when the movie comes out December 25. Who wants to bet that we'll get Dada...

    Second Pokemon TCG Illustration Grandprix Announced!

    It's a pity that only that Charizard will be made into a promo card when nearly all of the top 50 illustrations could easily be made into promo cards or even normal set cards. I almost wish that the other top 50 illustrators were given $50 each for use of their illustration so that they could be...

    Galarian Slowbro Revealed, New 'Sword & Shield Expansion Pass' Trailer!

    They said that we get Galarian Slowbro in The Isle of Armor and then we get Galarian Slowking in The Frozen Tundra.

    Galarian Slowbro Revealed, New 'Sword & Shield Expansion Pass' Trailer!

    No, those are the English names. They are listed on the English Pokemon website. And besides, Gamefreak tries to make it so that Legendary Pokemon names are the same across all languages. There are very few, if any Legendary Pokemon that have a different name depending on the language. Edit...

    'Eruption Walker' Japan's Mini-Set for April!

    I remember when Tyranitar was electric type and used Shock counters. That was pretty awesome lol.

    'Pokemon HOME' to Launch with Free and Premium Features, GTS, IV Checking

    My observation of this is that it's a lot better than people are making it out to be. Transferring your Pokemon has only been free once and that was when transferring from Gen 3 to Gen 4 with a DS with a Gameboy Advance slot. Every other time after that, you needed another device or PokeBank, so...

    'Pokemon HOME' to Launch with Free and Premium Features, GTS, IV Checking

    Very nice, a significant improvement from PokeBank. Sadly, that is definitely represented by the significant increase in price and the lack of a package deal with PokeBank is disheartening. Otherwise, I'm quite pleased with Pokemon Home, even if the price leaves something to be desired. One...

    Nine Surprising Changes Announced for the PTCG: Fairy Pokemon Dropped!

    And two Water types eeveevoltions as well (Vaporeon and Glaceon). I wonder if this might break the game in some way now that Eevee has two Water and two Psychic evolutions now /S
