Hold up we might get two Chikorita lines in this block,since you know,Chikorita is gonna be one of the starters in ZA

Terrible rn

Instantly doubling Hydrapple's damage output is pretty nice actually. Having to run multiple different stage 2 lines is rough, especially with all the itemlock stopping rare candy, but maybe ogerpon gives you the draw power to make it work out? It also makes ogerpon ex a threat in its own right if you really want.

A Teal Mask Ogerpon/Hydrapple ex deck could hit hard with this line.

Ogerpon loves this

Yanmega suddenly attaches 6 energies with this one on the field... but indeed, it's a stage 2 in a world of Budew with a useless Stage 1.

Ogerpon loves this

I was actually confused by the wording of Ogerpon's attack, but I double-checked with the judges of my locals, and they agreed that it would work. Could be a fun way to make Ogerpon a primary attacker, as although it's certainly possible now, it can be a bit fiddly to get it dealing notable damage.

I doubt it'll see any play, but fun to think about.

Just the same effect as Venusaur, nice! People can play the Celebi ex Deck from Pocket now in Real Life too. Together with Brambleghast

 

[GekkougaTime]

This has potential… unfortunate that it’s a stage 2 but it does have potential. There might be a chance we get baby Emboar and Gatr too in this set if they do all of the starters.

[Kangaflora]

The BEST Meganium card to date. The TCG has succeeded where the games have failed.

Meganium art kind of reminds me of the Neo Genesis art. Now, if only the holo rare could look good, though. I hate the SWSH/SV holo pattern.

I would love to see a full art Super Rare/Special Art for Meganium. Very possible art rare, though, since some Holo Rares tend to get one.

 

[BlazeKnight7]

Ah bummer it's average was hoping we'd have all 3 Johto starters with great single prize decks, but sadly Meganium still trails behind Gatr and Typhlosion

 

[smoothieshake]

This is an improvement over Venusaur in GLC. It also can double as an extender in Mega Venusaur decks with as little as a 1-0-1 line (since you'd likely already play Rare Candy).

 

[Alex Hesketh]

Really nice to have this for whenever the other Chikorita line drops. And the art of the pre evos just adorable

Close enough, welcome back shiny legends venusaur

the tcg > the games
same thing to why fan games and rom hacks are far superior to what gamefreak spews out of their HQ
