“Mega Brave” and “Mega Symphonia” TCG Sets Officially Revealed Featuring Return of Mega Evolutions!
- Thread starter Water Pokémon Master
- Start date
That's why I said they'd make a stage "mega"
didn't you see what I said
Illustration rares need to stay in the Pokemon TCG FOREVER!!! The beginning of the SW&SH era was terrible before Alt Arts came back in Battle Styles. TPC renaming Alt Arts to Special Illustration Rares and then having regular illustration rares is the best decision they have EVER made. With how many Pokemon exist, there’s literally no reason for illustration rares to ever be removed. Now they just need to get rid of FA Pokemon or just completely rework how they look.
Keep the stats. Just make them 2 prizers instead of 3
I would also like to point out that rare candy’s regulation mark has been updated to I. Kinda sad about that would’ve loved to see a slower format without rare candy
Time to spread Mega Latias ex propaganda.
First attack: attach binding mochi, use PAR brute bonnet's ability, attack with strafe and promote SVP pecharunt. You do 80 damage from the initial hit, and then 60 poison damage in checkup. That's 140 damage total, and you're knocking out basically every pre-evolution except eevee ex while leaving a single prizer in active.
Second attack: use Ethan's ho-oh ex to put two basic fire energy into play, put latios into play, and then retreat into mega latias ex. from there, you just need to attach for turn with either basic psychic energy, luminous energy, or the prism energy reprint coming in black bolt & white flare to hit for 300 damage on turn 1. The binding mochi + perilous jungle combo can reach 370 damage, knocking out mega gardevoir ex during checkup.
There's an interesting glass cannon combo deck somewhere in here, but there's a bit of a conflict where playing into poison prefers secret box, while playing into setting up the second attack quickly prefers precious trolley.

INTELEON IS BACK ON THE MENU BOYS
understandable but japanese boxes are mainly for japanese people who see great value in them. Some gold items were the 2nd-3rd most expensive hits in the whole set in Japan. Seeing them in the SR slot frees up the UR slot for more interesting cards (speculating). If they did SR+UR versions, I would also be disappointed though for sure.
Just a small correction, having Mega Gardevoir evolve from stage2 Gardevoir wouldn’t necessarily make it a Stage 3. It could just be called “Mega”, the way they did in 2016 - and not calling them “Stage 1” evolutions. It’d work just like Break Pokemon worked back then and I honestly would have loved that.
People still assume the pokemon company is like “oh what is missing from an international IR dex?”.
They confirmed in interviews that the selection process of Pokemon for the sets is mostly random and based on what is popular with the creator. The same seems to apply for the IR section. I don’t think it’s to bad to have one or two per set that already have one. and even that didn’t really happen yet. We still get plenty new ones
Not ideal, but not worst thing.
should have been wailord. the tradition has died
Yeah, I know :') just a little bitter since I've got favourite Pokemon I'd be ecstatic to get art rares for. Alas...People still assume the pokemon company is like “oh what is missing from an international IR dex?”.

I was not talking about the art but the competitive use, which the 151 saw none.
Is this the first regulation I Rare Candy?
nah - inferno set will be our November set along with the greninja set
