    Where to buy in USA?

    RE: How to use Pokemon Shopping sites, and where to go. Wow, I didn't know Professor Oak had that kind of service. That's interesting. I should take a look to see, since while it's not enough to make it unplayable, it is kind of annoying. And all right then--the fact that there are fewer...

    (2) Battle Strength Deck Keldeo, Announcement in 'CoroCoro' Next Month [2/16]

    There's also Bug/Grass. Paras and Parasect, and Sewaddle, Swadloon, and Leavanny, will always be represented as a Grass-type in the TCG.

    Metagame Spotlight #2 - Scizor

    I'll get something in. Could you extend it at least a day further so I have time to make something? I forgot about this. EDIT: Done.

    Lack of Input From PTCG Creators?

    This actually comes down to the differences in how American businesses and Japanese businesses are run. American businesses tend to be very involved with their customer base. That's because customer loyalty in America is low (compared to other wealthy parts of the world), meaning people will...

    Future EXs

    That last attack would be broken. It'd be 160 damage for 3 Energy with no drawbacks for any Pokémon with a weakness. Reshiram EX doesn't get a break like that.

    Where to buy in USA?

    RE: How to use Pokemon Shopping sites, and where to go. All right then. I occasionally go to Collectors Cache--because they sell primarily for collectors, they only ship in absolute top mint condition. I got some cards from Troll and Toad yesterday and saw that on some of them, the holofoil...

    Pokemon What can I say?

    Yeah, if you made top cut, then that means you can actually make a profit out of this if you go to enough of these tournaments. Granted, it's something very few people can do, but from personal experience, if you can make money off of it, and it's not illegal, parents will be in full support of it.

    (1) Keldeo's Artwork Revealed in 'CoroCoro' [2/12]

    Darn, I would've liked to know if it would've been Keldeo EX.

    Ruling Victory Star and Confusion and Other Effects

    Victini's "Victory Star" reads: Once during your turn, after you flip any coins for an attack, you may ignore all effects of those coin flips and begin flipping those coins again. You can't use more than 1 Victory Star Ability each turn. Can "Victory Star" also apply for the coin flip...

    Do you play to win, or do you play to have fun?

    It IS petty, and the odds are far against you due to so many other people being there, which is why I consider it a stupid thing to do. You ask me to name one person, and I will: I can recall this guy I faced in the third round in the Pasadena States in 2009. (I won't say what his name was for...

    Cheap Decks That Work

    Well, except for Pokémon Catcher, which goes for $9 to $10. That card is annoying to get. Sometimes, it feels like I might be better off getting Vileplume as it's cheaper and eliminates the need for Pokémon Catcher.

    TCG Discussion - Please Read Before Posting in this Forum!

    RE: TCG Discussion- Please Read Before Posting in this Forum! Ah, I see. I have a few of those. Thanks for the explanation. I was always wondering what they were called. Maybe I'll keep a few in there and point them in opposite directions of curling and see what they're like after a week or so...

    English Card Quality

    Is that really how much they cost in Japan? And here I thought that everything was more expensive there. (I mean, they have to pay $130 for a year's worth of Shonen Jump, and Carl chips cost twice as much as Lay's or Poore Brothers here.)

    BW/BW2 The Simple 5th Gen VG Questions and Answers Thread

    RE: The B/W Questions and Answers Thread The answer is no, you can't bring Rock Climb over. I tried that with my PickUp Munchlax and the game didn't allow it.

    Vanilluxe ND Slip Strats?

    Well, I tell you what--it can one-hit KO Donphan, Reshiram (assuming no Eviolite), Typhlosion, and Emboar. If you can get Vanilluxe fully Energied up (which will definitely be the hard part), then it's going to be trouble for someone using a Reshiram deck.

    Do you play to win, or do you play to have fun?

    Some people are in it for the prize money. Their attitudes are ridiculous. They don't even say hello or shake hands or anything. They're just there to win, get the money, and get out. (They usually don't win and just leave when they get enough losses that they can't get the top cut.) I rarely...

    English Card Quality

    I never saw any of my Next Destinies cards have holographic errors. That was certainly a bad batch.

    (1) Keldeo's Artwork Revealed in 'CoroCoro' [2/12]

    Oh yeah, and if Keldeo is going to be released in a way that you can name him, I hope people name him something other than D'Artagnan.

    Future EXs

    it's too bad there will most likely only be Legendary Pokémon getting the EX status. If there's any one I'd appreciate seeing though, it's Latias EX. it's my favorite Legendary Pokémon, and someone at Nintendo seems to like Latias and Latios as well, as the two of them have been printed a...

    TCG Discussion - Please Read Before Posting in this Forum!

    RE: TCG Discussion- Please Read Before Posting in this Forum! Sounds pretty typical of what I'd get. I'd get 1 Trainer/Item/Stadium/Supporter about once every 2 to 3 packs unless it's common like Switch or Potion, in which case I only NOT get one in every 2 to 3 packs. I dread to think about...
