Hi. I was wondering if you can help me because I've heard different things about what should happen if something like this occurs. Suppose I play Random Receiver (http://pokebeach.com/scans/dark-explorers/99-random-receiver.jpg ) and the first card I reveal with it is a Professor Juniper (or...

I can see Durant losing popularity due to Heatmor, but I don't think it'll completely wipe the deck off the map. Heatmor is great against Durant, no doubt about it, but imagine that you're building a deck and are deciding on the last few cards to include. Would you rather play a card that could...

"Deck and Cover".......now I have to build a deck with him in it now. Actually that's a point. Does anyone know how Galvantula's attack would work with Skyarrow Bridge, or has there not been any official ruling on it yet? Just thinking it might make a somewhat useful Tornadus...

Just a quick update mentioning the Battle Roads this weekend for anyone interested xD.

Forgot about those kinds of deck. I can see them doing well too, mabye not as much as the decks I've mentioned but they should hopefully see enough play to avoid being written off. It's tempting, but I probably wouldn't put it into a deck. If I remember correctly, it's ability lets you search...

In my opinion, here's what I think the 5 types of deck that will be most likely to do well in the first few weeks after Next Destinies is released are: Decks that can abuse the Pachirisu/Shaymin combo. Decks that run Mewtwo with energy acceleration. Decks that run Magnezone with energy...

Hi. This isn't really a "card" question so sorry if it's in the wrong place. I went to a city championship recently and in one game, I was left in a situation where my active Cleffa was asleep and burned at the same time. The turn after I get burned I first flip for sleep to see if I wake...

60+ Damage for a Double Colourless is nice and it has freakin' awesome artwork. That's pretty much all I can say about it just now. Can't wait for a translation xD

Last deck I played at a tournament was the truth. I think the next deck I'll try when the next set is released is Magneboar (Great Ball + Rare Candy + Magnetic Draw = Awesomeness)

Hi everyone. It’s Tragic again, this time with a city championship report for Cumbernauld Cities. After playing at Nottingham States and doing ok with TyRam, I decided I definitely wanted to attempt something new for Cities. I decided to try an item lock deck, since they weren’t usually that...

Updated the list (kinda). I've done it up until Triumphant and beyond that it's relatively unchanged but I'll check that out in the near future. Got a lot more primes and stuff for people interested, including Ampharos, Lanturn, Ursaring, Machamp and Scizor. Let me know if you're interested

Wait I'm confused. Does that mean that the theme decks will contain a pokemon EX or is there a different Reshiram/Zekrom I haven't heard of (or are they making english exclusive ones)? If it's the first one then that's amazing. I guess it probably makes a bit more sense to make regular EX's...

Hi guys. Tragicthesaddening (Scott) here and since I’ve not posted much on the beach lately, I’ve decided to do a report on my time at Nottingham States, which happened last Saturday. For the event I used a Reshiram/Typhlosion deck, which had been performing well the week before whenever I...

I don't think "Take Out 2" would be great for 2 reasons. First, it makes EX pokemon pretty much unplayable, since they provide too much risk to the people playing them. Remember how hardly any Legends got played when Machamp was out? I think a similar story will happen again if an attack which...

Hi Recently a new pokemon league started up in Edinburgh. It's one of the few leagues in Scotland ( the other being in Cumbernauld). It's been around for about 6 months now with new members constantly turning up. Recently we've moved to a new location at the Inch park, which is right next to...
