SM9 'Tag Volt,' Japan's December Set!

This could be a really fun card with a bunch of utility supporters in expanded, but you'll probably just get smashed 9/10 times.
 
  • Dragonite - Yes It can be Lance's but remember what Lance * requires, you can only use this card if 1 of your Pokémon was Knocked Out during your opponent's last turn. So this won't be a turn 1 thing unless you throw a Vulpix and sac it. Another problem for it is it needs a Lele just to search Lance then search for Dragonite. Another problem is.. Its a Stage 2 with bad RC and a bad attack. 3 Geodudes
 
Nice consistency boost in Dragonite GX for sure. I could see this possibly having an affect on the GX's viability.
 
I could see this being attractive in a non-gx deck that uses the magcargo+oranguru draw engine so you consistently get the lance <> out. But then having three benched support pokemon is not great....
 
Maybe one off in Dragonite GX decks. Not more than that until we see some much awaited support for Dragon type.
 
Similar to swampert IMO. Definitely a 1-0-1 line in stage 2 box decks, like gardy, solgaleo etc.. Ditto prism and ninetales GX have proven to be enough support for these stage 2 box decks, and this is too good not to include
 
That ability is pretty friggin good. Anything that can increase the consistency of a deck, even if it is a stage 2, always has a chance of seeing play in a deck or 2 or probably 7. Attack is meh but that doesn't really mean much.
 
Already overrated. It's ok in stage 2/A9T decks but those are not that great to begin with, except for DeciTales and that one is better off with Zoroark instead.
