Kind of a shame. Eelektrik for Fire could be fun, but this is a "Stage 1" Ability on a Stage 2 Pokémon. Really goes to show how far the goalposts for viable Stage 2 Abilities have moved since EX Ruby and Sapphire. Then again, it would help a ton if Blaziken had a good attack to use Firestarter...

I need to touch on Dragonite-GX's Dragonporter GX attack. Pay close attention to this text: "Put 3 [N] Pokémon from your discard pile onto your Bench." Note that it doesn't say "basic [N] Pokémon". Yes, this is like Archie and Maxie for Dragons - it lets you put evolved Dragons on your Bench...

SECRET RARE DRYING PAN HYPE

Welp, the nightmare finally happened, people. We got the dreaded Secret Rare Crushing Hammer.

This card is exactly the same as Team Rocket's Trickery, and those of us who remember that card know it isn't good.

So Prism Stars are auto-Basic, but you can only have one of each in your deck. Does anyone remember Shining Pokémon from Neo Revelation and Neo Destiny? It's like that, but with the Lost Zone thing added on. As for this Solgaleo, the first attack is interesting in Metal Decks (namely, the...

And both of these blisters come with Palkia coins for... reasons, I guess.

Are you referring to how similar it looks to the Full Art?

Marshadow's kinda "meh" to me either way, and I prefer the original Necrozma's more imposing artwork. That promo Ho-Oh, however, is absolutely gorgeous.

Why did they wait to put this out until after all three of these cards left the Standard format? That seems like some really boneheaded timing, to be perfectly frank.

Sadly, I don't see it happening, since this Chimecho is a Basic. I agree, though - the babies really need the love they haven't gotten in six years.

Eh, I don't see this card being all that good. Don't get me wrong, that Ability is good, especially since it stacks (meaning you can pile on 80 damage per Energy attachment), but I think it's too slow and clunky to get into play on a Stage 2, especially multiples. Metagross-GX and Gardevoir-GX...

Alolan Muk only shuts down Abilities belonging to Basic 'mons. Silvally itself is a Stage 1, so Muk means nothing to it.

Okay, these are actually adorable and I want all of them. :3

Uh, guys? You do realize Warp Energy was just reprinted in Japan and is likely to be this set's Special Energy, right?

@Water Pokémon Master I've made out Hoopa's Ability name to be Bandit Guard ( バンデットガード ).

Welp, now Raichu's about to be totally outclassed in Expanded.

@Water Pokémon Master I was able to make out enough of the attack's Japanese name. It's Rock Wrecker.

Another Quaking Punch, of frickin' course. Yeah, it's not a DCE attack and it's on a Stage 1, BUT STILL. Also, the GX attack's name is Boomburst. Just sayin'.

This is all that needs to be said about this Araquanid: Bad.
