Few things to note:
- Despite Strong Style/Agile Style being in Legends, the "Styles" in TCG were dropped in Brilliant Stars. That gives it a very low likelihood of returning.
- "Star Birth" Pokemon selection seems to very closely follow Legends, or at least Legends + BDSP (lmao Charizard), acting like it's a new gen or at least a soft-gen.
- oh god not lord formes please no
 
Hey i'm new to the chat i've been using pokebeach for a while but couldn't chat now i can. just putting it out there i like the tcg and seeing the format grow and palying. I also make my own custom cards and are working on custom vmaxs and vstars

I keep imagining a room full of people, then one of them shows the design for horse Palkia. None of them were brave enough to just go like "I'm sorry, that's absolute flamin' dog shit"? There has been so many fan made "origin" Palkia and Dialga forms for so long, I wonder if that's the problem. They go like "ok, fans used up all the actually cool ideas, we have to improvise, Bob". It's mind boggling to me how stupid both designs look. My only hope is that the TCG has managed to make stupid looking pokémon look half decent in cards in the past. They just pick the right angle and make it CGI, and then all of a sudden the totality of the design's stupidity is no longer visible, so there's that.
 
This is the dumbest set name I have ever heard, but I know that all the little kids will buy it because it is astral

I never liked their original designs and I happen to like their new forms because they resemble something and not random shapes with a very lose theme.

Yeah that's definitely part of it; fans have speculated on alternate Dialga/Palkia forms for so long that it was probably hard not to copy any of them. HOWEVER, even seeing how they were trying to make them resemble Arceus, there are still so many bad design aspects about both of them that easily could've been fixed (the GRADIENTS are the worst parts imo), it's just embarrassing?

I agree though, sometimes I hate a design so much until I actually see it in card form LOL so we'll see what happens

I'd take their original random shape forms over their ugly imitation forms any day haha
