Fingers crossed that they do this if they do decide to put them into a set, since those sets usually aren't overly competitive anyway...but it would be even better if they didn't put them in any set at all. I even think it would probably be better to not release them internationally rather than...
I hope they actually print some sort of support for Dragon types if they're going to put it in the name. Maybe make Double Dragon Energy into an Ace Spec?? ?
Love to see this line again. All the art is great and Uninori may shape up to be one of my favorite new artists - the coloring style is reminiscent of Ken Sugimori before Generation III. The Abra pleases me greatly - I love it when random evolving Basic Pokemon have good abilities, I hope they...
It is a diverse format. There are plenty of viable decks and the decks play differently from each other. I understand you hate the power level of Standard, but some of the things you say just don't ring true at all, such as this or when you say Standard isn't skillful.
This is the kind of thing I've thought about for a while...abilities that need Energy attached to the Pokemon to activate. Neat. Lots of cool cards here!
I disagree to the utmost. I hate to see Pokemon or Pokemon forms completely forgotten when a new generation comes around. It feels wasteful, in a way.
Anyway, yeah...from a competitive perspective, most of the good cards are already revealed ones. Maybe Greninja will be good, though.
At first glance, these cards don't seem competitively good...but maybe that's kinda a good thing so we don't go into too much of a big basic format? Also, they could get more support I suppose.
One thing that confuses me is that these Ogerpons are apparently intended to be played in a deck...
They better not put these in any main set. Most of these cards are even worse than the Battle Academy cards that made it into Fusion Strike. At least some of the artwork is good, but I'm always happier when good artwork is on good cards, tbh!
