Sooo Primal Reversion won't block Flare Tool cards? It says excluding Tools so...? Also, are we getting a new Groudon EX or a reprint? Cause the only Groudon/Kyogre EX's were in Dragons Exalted. The hype is real!

So this confirms Groudon EX? That's pretty cool. The card looks pretty cool too. I'm just afraid its gonna be cluttered with flashyness and the Mega Rule and all that. Also, yeah why is Primal Groudon a Mega?

I would also like to pint out the Latest Post in "Primal Groudon-EX in 'Hoe..."

Given that the set (it was Dark Explorers btw) is out of rotation in the current format, I'd say we'll get new Groudon/Kyogre EX cards.

Also, the art on Primal Groudon is pretty badass and detailed.

In that case, it'd make more sense, if the text next to (d)evolution states: “Devolves from Groudon EX.” It'd be confusing, if you use the Devo Spray on it… :D
Yeah, and… it block every Item (except for Tool) and Supporter played against it! Wow! No Team Flare Grunt, no Enhenaced Hammer, no Lysandre, no Startling Megaphone…

Love the artwork. I'm sure I'm not the only one who noticed the rock-like border, right?

The Barriers is kind of cool, as it blocks Lysandre, Catcher, Hammers, Flare Grunts, and Lasers. If Groudon gets a good attack, it might see some play.

On the side note, I'm sooo happy that Pokemon is keeping the same card blank design from B/W and X/Y!! It's easily the best official blank ever made, and I hope they never change it!

It is still a big card(which you can't play) hopefully it will actually get released as a card.

I am sure it is intented to keep it the same with the introduction of the extended format like mtg where all modern cards were the same as the ones in standard(that has changed a little recently but you get the point)

The border of the card is amazing, I am looking forward to Primal Kyorge, and ORAS also.

Edit: Also notice the barrier effect says Ω Barrier, will Kyogre have A Barrier? Will it be different than the Omega one?

I can think of something to say, I so wish we were seeing the Primal Kyogre box instead. I always liked Kyogre over Groudon.

That being said, Primal Groudon looks kind of neat and I was pretty sure they would handle this the same way they handled Mega Evolutions, especially since we currently only know of two Primal Pokemon. And if that Treecko card is the real thing...well in my opinion that pose is just so Treecko appropriate.

I can't quiet tell if the Hoenn pins are three seperate pins or one single pin, can anyone else?

I may be wrong but Primal Groudon-EX seems to be a Fire-type...

Also, why is it a Mega? I thought you guys would have get it by now... Primal Reversion is a glorified Mega Evolution and this card only adds more evidence to that...

The card looks really cool btw...

The only thing I don't like is... It seems we're getting the starters lines in the ORAS set... So why did they make a Blaziken in Furious Fists if they were planning to make a Blaziken for the ORAS set???

I agree, he seems to be fire.. unless that red is from the barrier text. Specially since it has a "rock/ground" border.

Anyway.. OMG! If a Mega deserves to have the Mega Rule, it's this thing right here. I'm quite sure there won't be a spirit link (or similar) for M Groudon-EX. It's like that girl you see on the street, you immediately fall in love with her, and you don't even know her xD

On a side note, as a question to anyone who might know: since Phantom Gate releases September 13, am I correct in assuming that the set should start leaking around September 11, just like Rising Fist did?

Or they didn't want to introduce yet another mechanic into Gen 6's TCG cards like that? Mega Evos are their thing for the XY series. It's the mechanic it'll focus on, even if they aren't Megas.


The art on that Primal Groudon looks beautiful. And that ability. That's interesting. No Lysandre-ing it out.
