News Japan's SM3+ Set: 'Shining Legends!'

I loved the Zoroark from BREAKpoint so this Zoroark-GX has me stoked! Also I think this Mewtwo-GX with the combination of Shining Mew will be a very viable deck. Same goes for Raichu-GX and Raikou.
Breloom, Croconaw/Feraligatr, Liepard, Keldeo, Shining Celebi, Venusaur, Shining Volcanion, and Manaphy all get an honorable mention from me as techs or for just for fun decks.
 
Shining Jirachi is certainly an interesting card. Looking forward to seeing if anybody uses it more now that more stage 1 and 2's are popping up in the competitive scene.
 
That kingdra works with Tapu Koko promo well. I wounder if im the only one with the same idea
 
Vensaur is pretty Playable with its ability, it has some potential. It can be annoying though, Because Venusaur is a Stage 2. Maybe rare candy and Shiinotic( Illuminate) will save it?
 
Of course the Ivysaur combos with Venusaur and Shining Celebi, allowing it to swing for half the cost.
 
Just imagine this Genesect with Venusaur and the -30 damage stadium. You can also use Max potions by moving the energies with other genesects in bench
 
Genesect + Venasaur seems legit. 3 grass energy + Venasaur ability + Choice Band = 200 damage. On a basic single-prize attacker. Ridiculous :D
 
Shining Genesect looks like a solid single prize attacker in Lurantis and possibly Vikavolt decks. The Ability and attack are reminiscent of Flareon-EX, a card that saw some competitive play but Volcanion now has better partners. With the Lurantis promo and Choice Band, it's possible to hit for big numbers with this card. 130 HP is also typical for a non-GX / EX basic.
 
  • Shining Genesect - Does anyone found Venusaur's perfect partner? This is the perfect one! This is basically Grass version of GEN Flareon EX. I made up a partial deck list for this. Plus, the ability matches the card itself.4 Geodudes:

It is said that Genesect is an ancient Pokemon found and modified by Team Plasma, and a lot of people believe that Pokemon to be Kabutops. Maybe that's the reference? The dex does however say it was a bug Pokemon, which it is not a Bug-type, but it is in the Water 3 Egg Group, which is the Egg Group that aquatic invertebrates are categorized in. Neat reference.
Shining Genesect and Venusaur... Too many decks I want to make, yet so little money. >_>
