Shame Pecharunt ex’s ability only works on dark benched, might’ve been some fun to have with clawf shenanigans, though it’ll love the item still. Might still be worth teching a pecharunt ex into any dark deck for a free switch effect though.

Why is it that Japan gets all the neat art and the rest of the world gets crap sugimori stock art?

I mean they were all trash in the videogames as well, so it fits I guess?

Will probably pick one up if it’s real. I own the red pikachu one, though after all these years it’s actually splitting at the seams from holding so many old cards over the many many years that’ve passed.

Dipplin could be interesting, wasn’t there some Pokémon or item that let you use prior stage attacks? If so, once Hydrapple hits the scene and gives it a more sturdy body, you can drag up annoying stuff with Dipplin’s attack and just wreck havoc on lost box stuff, or cycle in Pokemon with high...

I hope they stick Hydrapple in the set, even if it’s technically the next dlc it’s still awkward (and even in the games themselves at the time) of having a random stage 1 in there. Of the EXs, not too impressed with any besides Iron Thorns, fit it into an Iron Valiant deck and you can pretty...

It’s a shame Melmetal ex sucks. Love Melmetal, one of my favorite Pokémon to come out of last gen, but its stupid “mythical” status meant I could never run it in VGC, and the tcg can’t give a good one to build with. Sigh…

Is there a list of which cards these are by chance?

Looks awkward as heck. I like the skyline background, but plastering it with stock Pokémon images in the foreground just looks weird.

Is it odd I’m more interested in the accessories more than any of the cards (that aren’t legal anyways)?

Maybe in like Alakazam decks? Yeah Mimikyu is a thing, but you’re still using rare candy in Alakazam decks anyways, could use one on a beefier body that won’t just die to radiant greninja or something.

If we ever get a good Gengar ex in an upcoming future set, this will be pretty nice to throw in as a 1 of for the free Switch effect.

Geez that was fast, I figured I’d have at least a bit of time to decide (I love the original great wave print, but wasn’t 100% sure I loved this as much). Plus had a friend get me the Yokohama worlds one so it was like do I need another…I guess that answers that question. Now for the rayquaza...

My two guess as to why the donphans came out early are: 1. They’re the first ones encountered in the video game as part of Arven’s story dealing with the 5 titan pokemon. 3 now have an ex (the donphans, Klawf, and Bombirdier), so we may get an ex of Tatsugiri and Orthworm down the line. 2...

Still looks like a dude to me tbh. Really don’t get why some people have certain characters as husbandos, I mean waifus…
