Carbink Promo in 'CoroCoro Ichiban!'

first attack is actually pretty dirty, but the safeguard ability is probably better in buzzwole decks right now given how popular mew ex has gotten as a counter
 
Car Car Binks 7/10

Meh. Wish Diamond Gate could get 2 of any trainers. Guard Press is pretty good. HP is standard.
 
Could be good once rotation happens because your opponent won't be able to disrupt your hand.

Wrong!

Ilima, the new S&M opposing hand disruptor, will still be around, but the only catch? It doesn't take prizes into account like N does, but rather, Ilima takes a flip into account: 6 cards for heads, 3 for tails...

^ Maybe there's still a possibility this Carbink will be useful: If there's no hand disruptors introduced or reprinted in time for the 2019-20 P!P season, then this card will be a foolproof one in Standard then... But until that point arrives, there are still 6 chances(2 left for this current season, plus 4 more in the season after), discounting subsets, promos, among other possible ways, for Pokemon to print a hand disruptor card to prove this Carbink as flawed when it comes to its main use during its entire time in standard. The far future has an unpredictable nature...

Sadly by the time this card is released in America Carbink Break is almost gonna be out of rotation. :(
 
Its diamond GATE though...get wouldn't have the line in it. If it did say geeeet, it would still need the tiny tsu to make the sharp "T" sound for get
Oh, you're right! I overlooked that. (And my reading for Japanese is super basic.)
I did, however, think it was strange that it used katakana for "get" when it's usually capital English letters. That explains it, though! Ha ha.

it wont be good since it leaves your carbink an easy prize card, and hand disruptions like n, red card,,,etc are still around. your wasting a turn just searching.
