‘HS – Unleashed’ Kingdra, Steelix, and Tyranitar Prime
Last day to complete your match for the first official PokeBeach Redshark tournament is Friday! Many of you have not done so, so you better get on it or you’ll be disqualified!
We have obtained images of three Pokemon Prime from HS – Unleashed: Kingdra (#85), Steelix (#87), and Tyranitar (#88). Click the thumbnail below for a larger image. Since the set will have six Pokemon Prime, the other three possibilities range from Crobat and Ursaring (from the original LEGEND: HeartGold & SoulSilver Collection), to Lanturn, Houndoom, and Scizor (from Revived Legends), to Raichu and Slowking (LEGEND promos).
Since Crobat is on the set’s booster pack, we can assume it is in the set as card #84 before Kingdra. Ursaring from the same set will most likely be included as well (why break up the original HGSS’s Pokemon Prime across three sets?), so it is probably card #89 after Tyranitar. TPCi probably doesn’t want to hold off on releasing the original Pokemon Prime for too long, so it makes sense for them to include the two in this set now. So that’s five out of six Prime accounted for. Raichu, Lanturn, and Scizor all fit between Kingdra and Steelix as card #86, but since Raichu is a recent promo and Scizor’s Metal-type is already accounted for by Steelix, it’ll probably be Lanturn, especially since it wouldn’t make sense to only include one Pokemon Prime from Revived Legends. I’m willing to bet the full lineup will be this: Crobat (#84), Kingdra (#85), Lanturn (#86), Steelix (#87), Tyranitar (#88), and Ursaring (#89). If this turns out to be the case, we’ll only be missing the Pokemon Prime Raichu and Slowking promos as well as Houndoom and Scizor from Revived Legends (which were both a “pair” in the original set and are of types that Tyranitar and Steelix already cover for our English set).
Unleashed is a pretty large hodge-potch set, drawing from the Japanese LEGEND: HeartGold & SoulSilver Collection, Revived Legends, the Battle Starter decks, and the Expert Deck Leafeon vs. Metagross package. What will be included in the set?! We’ll find out in two weeks when the first prereleases take place, though as usual, we’ll have scans on PokeBeach before then!
