“Black Bolt” and “White Flare” TCG Sets Officially Revealed Featuring Every Unova Pokemon!

Some nice artworks, and the horizontal line holos is a nice touch if it's just for this set, but I think only giving one of the starters an ex is a major flaw. Imagine in 151 only one of Venusaur, Charizard and Blastoise had had an ex and a SAR.

I personally think none of the starters should have gotten an ex considering Serperior hasn’t gotten a normal card since 2016
I also dont like putting exs in my binder, they create cohesion issues
 
Yooo Emboar is Fire Baxcalibur?? That's amazing, I'm sorry for complaining about you not being an ex Mr Boar, pls forgive me 🙏
Fun fact: this isn't the first time Emboar had this ability.It had one in the Black&White expansion on his debut to the TGC.
As someone who grew up with these cards,I'm very happy about it.

With current state of the game, as nice as it is to see Inferno Fandango back, I am not convinced Emboar would be able to compete. If Inferno Fandango were reliable to set up, it does have a good toolbox of attackers right now, including Reshiram ex.

Zekrom ex is useful for a late game lightning attacker. Still might not be enough for a traditional Miraidon deck to get off the ground again, given it is strictly late game and can’t fill the full role of what Raichu and Raikou covered. Also a bit risky in Joktik Box since it doesn’t really outdo Pikachu in damage until 4 prizes in. Worth keeping an eye on nonetheless.

While it is neat seeing a pack with that many illustration rares for the artwork, I am really dreading the pull rates for specific arts.
