Single Strike hate confirmed, you heard it here first. Poor Single Strikes =( But hot damn that Noivern art is amazing. "I AM THE NIGHT! I AM VENGEANCE!" "I AM BAT(Noivern)MAN!"

Volcarona squad reporting in! Happy to see Jumpluff and Cloyster here too, and they gave them an interesting concept to work with. My Single Strikes got the short end of the stick again, really hoping to see them get just one solid all-rounder so they can finally knock the competition out of...

Suicune makes for a strong one-two punch combo with Ice Rider. You smack them for 260 then switch into this, get your draw and take the three prize knockout. If the opponent benches carelessly (or if you use Echoing Horn) you can repeatedly knock out Crobats with Suicune and not even need...

Wonder how the Fusion style will pan out. Kinda sad that thus far Rapid Strike has gotten all the attention but Single Strike really only has Houndoom as a good card. I'm glad they aren't ditching the mechanic yet when there's still so much they can expand on.

Things only really have value if someone wants to buy them. The last thing someone would want is to have paid big money for one of these then TPCi starts printing these exact promos again and suddenly your purchase is next to worthless.

What exactly is with the aggressiveness? Why do you need to "flip the bird" to players just over what decks they use? It isn't like they are the ones who made Tag Teams the way they are, TPC did and they fully intended them to be used the way they are and the power creep they created. Some...

It's just that the thing is, will even future V-Unions (even if they're better than this) see any play? It's already too easy with our present card pool to search your deck and then realise "Wow! I've already lost the game because important cards #1, #2 and #3 are all prized!" As you and others...

Woo! I'm hyped! I'm really looking forward to the sets with tons of V-Unions so I'll have to collect 800+ cards to complete a set! Thanks TPC!

DDE would honestly be disgusting in Standard if it got the reprint. While Ray doesn't have a use for it Noivern V gets to use it to hit 180 for 1 and the requirement to match hand sizes is easily attained. Dragonite V does 250 for 2 attachments (including DDE), which is the same amount as Ice...

Well it does say "new" Special Energy rather than one. It could be that TPC plans to simply reprint DDE rather than give Dragon a whole new Energy card, we will see soon enough.

TPC: "But..... But.... VMAX's are evolved Pokemon, we definitely support them! Oh wait, you mean the non-rule box ones? Yeah, they aren't flashy and in your face enough and don't have BIG #'s, so we pretend they don't exist."

So the real question is, which Rayquaza will it be? We've only really seen 2 Big Basic Ray concepts used since BW, so will it be.... (insert drum roll here) #1: Stack 2 different types of Energy (and maybe discard them) to do big damage Rayquaza ooooooooorrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr #2: Make...

It kind of pains me to see that Single Strike ultimately goes down the route of 'Many energy big hit' but of course not big enough to matter in a meta with massive HP numbers, which is made worse when SS mons seem to rely way too hard on support. Then you have Rapid Strike which tries to be the...

By paying for Pokemon Home, of course. But for real it depends on whether they take Platinum into account, which had wild Magmar and Electabuzz.

Well it seems none of my predictions stuck. Ah well. D/P remakes.... So it is likely the reason S/S ended up going in the direction it did was because they were working on these at the same time. If they do that and it turns out that these go the same way then they'll have divided their...

My predictions, hopefully I get some right: Minute 1-5: Showcase of Pokemon Day Concert Minute 5-7: New jumbo plush that everyone will want but too bad because the Pokemon Center site will crash 0.5 seconds before release. Don't worry though, because in that time scalpers will have bought...

I hope TPCi powercreeps this game so hard they have to just ban all the cards so we can start fresh with cards with manageable HP and damage

So, about that article on Game Freak wanting to put priority on other games.... To be honest if GF wants to sit out from making these games for a few years I would welcome it. Every once in a while we get these great features like Hyper Training, Battle Frontier, new types of Evolution. Then...

I'd like this if I didn't have Smash as one of my main reasons to consider a Switch, gotta have a Tv for that. The portable option is nice though as long as this is decently small, price point isn't bad. Is it just me or does the yellow one look the best? Turquoise ain't no slouch either.

Just so-so. Wish they didn't put back in the Rotom Dex but they can do what they want I guess. All I have to say is, if there isn't a good amount of endgame content they're not getting my money. Pretty bored of doing the same Champion story grind and then having nothing to do. The last 2 Gens...
