    News 'Islands Waiting for You' and 'Moonlight of Alola': Japan's Next Sun and Moon TCG Set!

    Honestly it's debatable and it depends on your viewpoint on it. If you think the pros out-weigh the cons of the card.

    Are any of your evaluations an actual evaluation or just a quick twitter blurb ?

    News 'Islands Waiting for You' and 'Moonlight of Alola': Japan's Next Sun and Moon TCG Set!

    Not much of a fan of it outside decks that have 'flip a coin, if heads x happens, if tails y happens.' since improving your results from the first go round decreases with each coin you have to flip. Flipping 1 heads is 50%, flipping 2 is 25%, 3 is 16.7%(I rounded up so no complaints from...

    I know that not all supporters are playable, nor are the pokemon. But these two are terrible. Only reason anyone would ever play Mallow is if you can make a shaymin or Octillery play afterwards. Other than that, teammates is a better choice.

    News 'Legendary Battle Decks' Featuring Ho-Oh and Lugia in May!

    There is a difference, these decks are more than likely to attune to the trio bird decks than the keldeo/ray/mewtwo/darkrai decks

    News New 'Pokemon Bank' Details for Transferred RBY Pokemon, Synced Pokedexes!

    If the justification to cheating to get good 'mons is 'to have fun', then competitive pokemon is not for you. And like RealSlim said, getting rid of natures/IVs would remove the actual good part about competitive pokemon. Compared to the RNG that is used for crits, confusion, freeze, burn...

    News New 'Pokemon Bank' Details for Transferred RBY Pokemon, Synced Pokedexes!

    No offense, but this is a really stupid reason to not buy a game from the virtual console. Why not buy it for the sake of nostalgia and be able to play it so long as your 3ds is able to function? And frankly, I disagree. Gitgud at breeding or learn how synchronizing works when it comes to...

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    I don't think so, when rotation happens next August/September, there are going to be a lot more pokemon hitting the discard pile when knocked out. Except it's not meant to do either. Like Asmer said, it's going to be something of a mid to late game attacker. It'd be more of those cards to...

    Situational tech card but it's definitely worth having a card or two in one's deck for the rest of this season and next season.

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    You clearly didn't read the card at all. It says to play them straight to the bench.

    News 'Roaring Skies' Getting Another Print Run!

    I don't know how I feel about the whole 'underestimating the demand' of RoS. This set added quite a few viable cards, including probably the most sought after card of B&W and beyond EXs.

    News 'Pokemon Champions League' Tournament Promos Announced!

    Choice band is really interesting. With EXs and Fighting Fury Belt gone after this season, this will probably be the new must have tool card for standard. In expanded I think this card will see play in primarily non-EX decks like Grenina. 'toad, tina, etc like having either muscle band for 20...

    News 'Scizor-EX Box' in April!

    I can understand pokemon that have megas getting EX cards, but reprints like these make no sense. I mean sure they're not as strong as some of the other EXs out there, but they're better than most of the GXs out right now.

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    D-did either of you even read the part where I said it was a mixture of best and worst case scenario where you could get the card into play but couldn't accelerate it faster than that? Of course there are scenarios where you can get it powered up in a turn or two, but that scenario is just as...

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    Turn one, play grubbin onto bench or have as active pokemon, attach energy. Turn two, evolve into charjabug, attach energy. Turn three, evolve into Vikavolt GX, attach energy and use first attack. Turn four, attach energy, use GX attack. Of course, this is a mixed case of worst and best...

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    Again this is a situational attack, what happens to your wide lens when you play against a trevenant break or other item lock deck in an expanded deck? Guess what? No Wide Lens. Oh and lets not forget about tool scrapper, xerosic, and breakpoint yveltal. Your point on "huge deal" is only useful...

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    Your first point is moot because unless they come out in the weeks after Sun and Moon is released and say, "Sun and moon only", the format is going to still be X&Y, not to mention not every regional is standard format. Some are expanded. Your second point is also moot because you're using an...

    News 'Sun and Moon Strengthening Expansion Pack'

    There are so few decks that run more than 2 shaymin, and almost all of them accelerate faster than this would. Garbage card that nobody is going to run, unless you get something like energy switch or max elixir hits, this card is going to see no play. If it was a big basic like generic EXs, it...

    News 'M Camerupt-EX and M Sharpedo-EX Premium Collections' in April!

    Huh, for some reason I thought all the megas from the X&Y games had gotten EXs and all that was left were ORAS megas.

    News 'M Camerupt-EX and M Sharpedo-EX Premium Collections' in April!

    Is there a list of which Megas that have not gotten an EX yet? My memory isn't the best but I'm pretty sure nearly all of them got a card.
