    “Eevee Evolutions Premium Collection” from GameStop Revealed!

    On one hand, it's underwhelming that every single one is a reprinted Promo. But on the other hand, this means it's not some exclusive and elusive, immediately-snatched-up product that everyone wants. I'm fine with this. It's for whoever wants the Promos all in one go and 9 packs.

    Gardevoir from “Pokemon TCG Online Illustration Exhibition”

    Very nice! And the Zacian looks straight up out of Zelda in Takumi Wada's art style.

    All “Incandescent Arcana” Secret Rares Revealed!

    Both Sonia character rares? On a technicality with Boltund V since she's only known for having Yamper. But to the best of my (limited) knowledge, she has no association with Galarian Zapdos. Bugsy and Orbeetle. Also, even though Serena CAN have a Braixen in X&Y, isn't that more of an anime...

    All “Incandescent Arcana” Secret Rares Revealed!

    Yeah, I think I'm going to stick to what's officially known instead of what's definitely probably maybe possibly would-make-sense-if-it-did-happen rumored to be in a set. Which Pokebeach is great at not posting rumors or hearsay without facts to back it up. But this instance was a let down...

    Uri Geller Hints Kadabra Returning to the TCG in Upcoming Set!

    First, just wanted to say that was a good read. The history, the current state, the speculation--it was interesting! But, uh... man, comments on Pokebeach lately. Far from the only examples, but I'm looking here after the Mew VMAX and holiday calendar articles... On one hand, especially after...

    Pokemon Worlds 2023 in Yokohama, Japan!

    On one hand, it feels like it's about time that this finally happens. But on the other hand, Japan has been so strict with allowing foreigners to visit due to their COVID restrictions, to the detriment of their own economy, I wonder if things will ease up by then... It would really be a shame if...

    Pokemon Center’s TCG Accessories for September Revealed!

    I'm glad products with the Pokemon Masters 3rd year anniversary illustration are getting a wider, much more available distribution than the 2nd anniversary Lillie and Lunala playmat.

    “Pokemon ex” Return, New “Scarlet & Violet” TCG Cards Revealed at Worlds!

    I don't know how anyone living in reality could not foresee a Charizard ex.

    “Pokemon ex” Return, New “Scarlet & Violet” TCG Cards Revealed at Worlds!

    While I don't mind GX's and V's showing off more artwork/scenery, I really do like the return to a visually simpler template. It's classic while still being a bit different. And I'm loving the addition of the classic style starry holofoil. I could be wrong, but I'm hoping these cards have their...

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    Oh, Tool Scrapper was actually reprinted. I forgot about that. I was remembering it from Dragons Exalted.

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    I honestly like the idea of the mechanic being through Tool cards. But I agree with @Mimikeon and @Diego Lima. I don't know what we currently have in rotation, and who knows what's down the line, but all it would take to ruin this mechanic is a Tool Scrapper effect to discard the Tool. More...

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    I'm not saying hard work doesn't go into models and rigging or that it doesn't take time. But in the 2019 Famitsu interview regarding the cut Pokemon, Masuda said they cut Pokemon in order to prioritize working on higher quality games (basically going from working on 3DS games to the much higher...

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    Yeah, it's for the sake of being universally recognizable and understandable. But it just... doesn't look good.

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    I don't care for these silly looking things growing out of their heads either. But given the fact that this bizarre direction is what they're going with, the reason why they use the same objects is to make it visually identifiable for which type they are, which is useful if it's a different type...

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    How did they not have time to add them in SwSh when the wire frames for the Gen 1-7 models were identical to the ones in the 3DS games, aside from a small handful that had a few changes? This has been proven. It's statistically impossible for one very complex wire frame to be created and be 100%...

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    For the cartridge maybe. It depends on how cheap they want to be with the cart sizes. But when additional content can be added digitally, what excuse is there for the size to not include all Pokemon? Is anyone going to tell me with a straight face that adding the Isle of Armour and Crown Tundra...

    Terastal Phenomenon, Paldean Wooper, Fidough, Cetitan, and More from “Scarlet & Violet!”

    Geez... Look at that map. "Welcome to the Paldea Region! Don't mind the giant portal of doom in the center of our land!" Just straight up making the Legendary your multi-mode of transportation seems... odd. But fine. Not an issue, but I just wasn't expecting that. lol The Terastal Pokemon is a...

    “Incandescent Arcana” Set Featuring Alolan Vulpix VSTAR Officially Revealed!

    Really, it's the Trainer Galleries that have piqued my interest lately! So while I'm still not happy with massive sets, I've just been focusing on what I DO like and collecting those cards. The Trainer Galleries, the Amazing Rares, and even though I haven't bought any yet, the Radiant...

    “Incandescent Arcana” Set Featuring Alolan Vulpix VSTAR Officially Revealed!

    Well, I feel like a lot of these revealed cards are tailor made for me! - A character rare drawn by Naoki Saito? ✅ - A new shiny Jirachi? ✅ I don't quite know why it's one of my favorite shinies, but I just love it. - A hand drawn Alolan Vulpix V and a gorgeous Vstar? ✅ (With the potential of a...

    Special SWSH Set Releasing in Early 2023, Partial Card Lists for Future English Sets!

    Hopium... But I'm very much there with you. TPCi has dropped the ball on several things throughout the years, but not releasing those SM cards has been one of the biggest head scratchers to me.
