More Cards Revealed from “Black Bolt” and “White Flare,” Including New “BWR” Rarity Cards!

Garbotoxin is a mistake, Pokemon hinted at us that they'll never reprint it again with the recent release of cards, and abilities not being double-sided and mostly only works if the user is in the active spot.

Also, what's with the newer Stage 2s lately? It is now far from the goal of the SV stage 2s for having a cheaper attack cost.

Waaaaait... They actually did the thing. A lot of the Pokemon in this set so far have been directly based on BW-era cards, but just different enough that they're not a direct reprint. Eelektrik, however, is identical to the Noble Victories one, right down to the attack name. Pretty sure that is the first direct reprint of a Pokemon from a previous era in a long time. (That is legal in its current format, anyway. Classic and Celebrations don't count.)
It isn't the first, there is a Magikarp originally from HGSS which was reprinted during the SM era.
 
Absolutely stunning. Everyone who thinks 5ban graphics is a “boring CG render illustrator” good skip them, I want these cheap. But sadly these will 100% be more expensive than the originals. Duality of man for real.
 
Ugh….and here i was thinking that we would get a fire illustration for the Tao trio. And here we have this, honestly, atrocious thing.

Not dissing 5ban but i really would have liked someone like Akira Egawa (illustrator of both SV Charizards, crown zenith arceus, dialga, palkia and giratina) to do them because he does some really great connecting arts!

And then we have 5ban who just copy pasted the cover art for the gen 5 games. Cool.
 
COME ON POKEMON STOP CAPITALISING ON WOMEN WE NEED MORE MEN TRAINER/TRAINERS POKEMON SIRS IN THE TCG

WE HAVE LILLIE, SADA, CYNTHIA, LISLIA, MIRIAM, PENNY, PERRIN, ERIKA, IONO, DENDRA, CARMINE, ARIANA, BIANCA, PARASOL LADY AND THEN NOW HILDA???

By the way, here’s the list for men (may not be the full thing because its SV)
-kieran
-arven
-ethan
-n
-hop
-turo

The numbering is interesting. Based on the info we know every Pokémon will get a AR or SAR, Serperior ex sar is 169, while reshiram and zekrom are both 174. I assume at least 6 ex's per set so probably it's like 173 is the sar of them both, and 174 the bwr. So 175 should be a ex sar, or am I just confused?
 
Looks like they saw the sun-bleached Moltres and said let me give it a go. Honestly those monochrome cards look awesome.

I highly doubt that we won't get sir's for Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem, after all, supposedly every gen V pokemon will get an sir, these are probably gonna be more similar to the gold cards
