Not sure how 60 damage every turn is a OHKO. And even that only works until you fight a Sigilyph. Not to mention you need to find it in your first 8 cards to have it out T2.

Oh, they probably will release the non-shiny version, but will it be before Battle Roads? We haven't gotten any announcements of anything it could possibly be in yet.

I wouldn't say it's "NICE" to have to spend $50+ to play Rayquaza... I would have rather not got him at all.

They changed the numbering of sets to match the Japanese ordering system back in Black and White. It's now by type, then Pokedex number. EDIT: Ninja'd... By 9 minutes. Guess that's what happens when I do something else in the middle of posting a reply.

Same here... I'd pay $35 to not have to travel 4 hours for a prerelease.

"A Stage 1 that lets you look at the top 2-3 cards of your deck, adds 1 of them to your hand and discards the others." Doesn't Musharna do this already, but without discarding? And no mention of an ability like this on a basic with a prize restriction?

Good to know! Glad I always check here first :P Also, 4 poison damage between turns sounds pretty sweet!

No one said it's new. In fact, that's exactly what we're pointing out. Poison inflicting more than 1 damage between turns has been around forever in multiple forms, so to have a card that adds extra poison damage not affect those cards, makes all those super poisons nearly pointless.

And I was talking about the Scolipede *without* Venoshock.

What are you talking about? Scolipede's attack effect is "The Defending Pokémon is now Poisoned. Put 2 damage counters instead of 1 on that Pokémon between turns." Also, they've been doing different levels of that effect for a while now. Crobat Prime was 4, and I think there was something with...

Found it, Scolipede from Emerging Powers. I didn't mean something that increases poison damage, but something that already has increased poison damage.

By the time you get 2 prizes, I would think you'd be set up pretty well. Unless of course, you're running Darkrai/Tornadus or something, which doesn't really need much help anyway. For example, by the time Empoleon/Terrakion takes 2 prizes they've probably got at least one Empoleon set up...

I can't read enough Japanese to read it, but it *looks* like there's only a 2 there. I don't see a 1 or anything that means 1 in Japanese, so it would make sense for it to be 2 more. However, it could just be different wording. I also think there were some Pokemon that had a poison effect that...

What about a 60-70 HP basic with no evolution with a simple attack and an Ability that lets you draw a card if you have 5 or more prizes left? Any deck could use it, provided they have the bench space, and it's not going to help a deck that's already doing great. Example: 70 HP and 0...

No, but you can actually take prizes before your last turn. Gives you access to your prizes, takes out threats/helpful pokemon (Eelektrik). Perhaps that slows them down enough to win? I don't know, but I personally prefer Minun. I just think Dusknoir kinda works too.

I guess with Dusknoir you don't need to use Catcher as often. Just to get out the highest HP pokemon they have, and chances are, that's the pokemon they want to attack with.

I'd say Ether/EXP. Share would be the easiest Energy acceleration. You wouldn't need to get out Eelektriks and use your level balls on them. Focus your Level balls and ultra balls on setting up Raticates, grab a Lunatone and start trying to get Ether from turn one. Warp Point gets a Lunatone or...

Or Raticate and Minun? Significantly easier to set up~ Not that I'm saying it's a great idea, but it's better than Raticate+Flygon.

I started playing right after unleashed, and I played up to like, Gold/Silver stuff before that. So for me, it's weird hearing about times where there were no Defender/Pluspower together. I've always thought of them like Special metal and Special darkness, they'd never be apart. Of course, now...

Don't have a heart attack... I'm not used to Defender and Pluspower not being together. How about Potion then?
