    “Palafin ex Box” Revealed for June with Three Brand New Cards!

    That's... probably correct yeah didn't think about that. Either way, this is still the next best card to switch for moving the stuff around, so that'll be needed for a consistency buff in getting up Palafin. We'll see what the rest of Twilight Masquerade could hold.

    “Palafin ex Box” Revealed for June with Three Brand New Cards!

    And the Dudunsparce engine, which is already putting in solid work for Roaring Moon as of late. That I think would come greatly into play for Palafin ex to what we know right now. Abra and Dudunsparce achieve the same goal in letting Palafin go to the bench and back to the active in 1 turn...

    Volbeat, Illumise from “Mask of Change”

    This is very matchup dependent. It's not a full write-off, but it is rather oportunistic to go second, get a hand that can play this, and for the opponent to have a board where you massively profit from removing one of their pieces and that not be a knockout. From there, you'd need to figure...

    Lana’s Assistance Special Illustration Rare from “Crimson Haze!”

    Wooper cannot believe what he just heard.

    All 66 “Crimson Haze” Main Set Cards Revealed!

    Bleh, the last supporter is Lucian. It's Ilima, but both players shuffle their hands to the bottom instead of back into the deck.

    “Twilight Masquerade” Pokemon TCG Set Officially Revealed for May!

    This would have been a solid deal for acceleration + switching if the attacks weren’t mostly underwhelming and, more particularly, low damage. After all is said and done, you have a play to deal with small Pokémon in 2-prize waves, you can OHKO Charizard and Arceus VStar, and you can have...

    Boomerang Energy from “Crimson Haze!”

    There aren’t gonna be many Pokémon that both can use Boomerang Energy’s effect and live a hit so that they can show some profit from it. From a quick search so far, the only Pokémon that jumped out at me were Garchomp ex and Golisopod ex. There’s gotta be something better, right?

    Survival Cast from “Crimson Haze!”

    There will eventually be someone who picks up a control deck that aims to get rid of the opponent's tool removal early, probably using Eri; and then try to finish the game on looping a way of continually healing a pokemon and attaching Survival Cast to it, checkmating certain decks. Ursaluna...

    Arceus VSTAR: Was It Secretly Good This Whole Time?

    Don’t forget that with Charizard being a centerpiece of the metagame, this is one of the answers to Zard that does not care about Charizard using Maximum Belt itself. Arceus has other things to worry about, but it never has to worry about Charizard thwarting its setup or intended prize race that...

    “Temporal Forces” Prerelease Promos Listed!

    Also confirmed now, the Metang's deck core features Metagross as its attacker. Feraligatr/Metang still looks really, really rough to pull as a combination due to lack of synergy overall and setup time needed, but if you can somehow build a deck featuring only one of those you get a good pool of...

    “Pokemon TCG Pocket” Immersive Collecting App Coming in 2024!

    If anything, this is kinda the way they should have handled Pokemon TCG Classic to begin with.

    “Pokemon TCG Pocket” Immersive Collecting App Coming in 2024!

    They won't. It seems pretty clear that this is designed with its own card pool in mind.

    Love Ball Revealed from “Crimson Haze!”

    “It would be better if we stayed friends.” “What? Why?!” “So I could search by the type of your Pokémon instead of the name.”

    Iron Leaves and Walking Wake from Crimson Haze!

    Radiant Ninja covered a much more significant role when devoted water energy: Knocking out 2 pokemon at once. That was something Roaring Moon ex could not do at all. Chaining together 2 1-prizers that only take 2 prizes cumulative is risky as heck in a dedicated Roaring Moon ex deck because you...

    Iron Leaves and Walking Wake from Crimson Haze!

    Realistically, everything you said would have probably been fine in most regards given Koraidon hits those numbers too. Losing health doing so is a bit of a downside when bulking out hits with Ancient Booster can be important depending on the matchup. The 3 energy cost is what really kills...

    Iron Leaves and Walking Wake from Crimson Haze!

    Walking Wake somehow doesn't fit in a deck well rn. It does too low of damage to be run over Kyogre in Bax/Pao, but also has too high of an attack cost to be run effectively in Dino Box. Iron Leaves is interesting enough given that one power-up from Booster Capsule or Crown ex lets it OHKO...

    First “Crimson Haze” Cards Revealed, Including Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex!

    Unless you put Hero's Cape on your first Toedscruel and it doesn't get blown off by Lost Vacuum, you are losing that prize trade after you pop Forretress. If you don't have the Hero's cape and the Charizard player knows what they are doing, you are rolling dice of if the Charizard player has...

    First “Crimson Haze” Cards Revealed, Including Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex!

    The cards that definitely show more interest are Blood Moon, Iron Thorns, Enhanced Hammer's reprint, and Unfair Stamp. Enhanced Hammer is pretty straightforward in that you run it to get rid of Gift Energy or Mist Energy mainly. This will likely replace Temple of Sinnoh in any deck that was...

    First “Crimson Haze” Cards Revealed, Including Bloodmoon Ursaluna ex!

    It's more Thorn is the new Empoleon V... but with a chance of a format with no escape rope.

    “Temporal Forces” Prerelease Promos Listed!

    Miraidon definitely feels like the best of the 4 overall. Future Box has a few really solid attackers for that card pool, and Miradon is compact enough that even if you wanted to expand upon a pulled Pokémon, you could just toss a few miradon and energy in as an engine and build your deck around...
