Wonder if we'll ever get Dragons weak to Psychic??

No, it's not being rotated, there's an F block reprint already in Japan.

This Orbeetle itself can hit for 330... even if your app has ZERO energy on their Pokémon. 3 energy *cards* means 3 DTEs - and 50xEnergy (not cards!) means 50x6=300 more damage! Obviously 3 DTEs won't always be possible, but plenty of Mew VMaxs would get hit for 330 with this setup (between...

From what’s been communicated- yes 2020 points carry over, and the point requirement is the same. All of that is easily found on Pokémon.com as is your current CP standings (which for us does include 2020 CP).

At SLC there were typical side events but not a league cup. There was a GLC I believe though (but that’s not an official thing, or at least not as far as I understand).

This is going to be huge in the Worlds meta... Drizzle has been looking for a friend to help find special energy, and here we get one! I'm sure it will be relevant after Worlds also, but with both Drizzle and Energy "search", there is way more opportunity to come back after a late knockout now...

You don't need choice belt... unless it has a big charm, anyway. 3 conditions: burn, poison, plus one "card turn" condition (sleep/paralyze/confuse) That means 30 damage plus 240 = 270, then you just need a G. Zigzagoon (or other +10 tick).

Most of side events aren't cups/challenges - most of them are quite accessible even in a no-cup format. Build and Battle events, pack challenges, small 8 player pod tournaments... I suspect there will be that kind of side event. But, we won't know the answer to this for a while I suspect...

This doesn't always happen though - look at Galarian Meowth -> Perrserker. I agree that is probably a reasonable "rule", but it's one Pokémon breaks when it feels like it. Perrserker Actually, now that I see the cards, I see what you say - in TCG *only* it works this way (since it has to...

I don't think that I'd interpret it that way. I'm sure there will be a clarification with the rules team once there is an actual English version of the card if it's still unclear, but it would be highly irregular to have a conditional shuffle with a search (without which you gain information...

Better question is why did Basculegion get it? Typically they don't give the Forme prefix for Pokémon who only appear in that one location (Galarian Mewoth, but Perrserker). Wyrdeer is initially found in Hisui, so it is just Wyrdeer. But why is Basculegion Hisuian?

Local mask mandates/etc. are irrelevant (unless they're more stringent than this in which case of course they must be followed). TPCi is saying that, *if we sanction a tournament*, you must follow our rules (just like plenty of businesses still require masks even if the locality no longer does...

I think it's also very much appreciated by the larger event hosts - they now have a policy they can point to when people inevitably complain, that isn't theirs. It will make it much easier to manage customer service - and people are well warned about it.

But then there's https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eastern_Europe ... at least three different definitions, most of which do have "Eastern Europe" starting with everything east of Germany.

There won’t be an official ruling until VStar is out, but I can’t see a scenario where they’d be considered the same. You’ll be able to use both once per game (and yes, even the same turn).
