I mean, ideally this would actually be better than getting the boxes, since you could spend the €20 the box would cost on other Pokémon products and get the promos thrown in. But with only 25 sets of promos being distributed per retailer, I take it the distribution won't go so smoothly?

I just realized why the Giovanni battle in Pokémon Origins makes sense. You know, the one where Rhyhorn sweeps most of Red's team (even KOing Victreebel with Thunder Fang)? Red was literally that one kid who trained his starter Pokémon and nothing else, just like the rest of us. Just look at...

*Weeps.* You have no idea how much I loved Burning Shadows' set abbreviation ("BUS") being an actual word. Not calling the set "SUS" was a missed opportunity.

If you're not making it to play in an event, you could build a Drifloon/Zoroark deck as an ode to Dark Weezing/Brock's Ninetales.

Fortunately, this Ledian is at least good enough to justify using in casual play if you just want to play a Ledian for once. It's outclassed by Boss's Orders, sure, but it's still a useful Ability, and it's attack conveniently OHKOs most Pokémon in the range of it's Ability, and for a flexible...

Everyone Explode Now looks like it could be a terror in prerelease. It's the sort of efficient attacker you've probably always wanted, and it benefits about as much from the "you can now run as many cards with the same name as you want" clause as you could ask for, meaning it's ability to set up...

I mean, I suppose the argument in favor is probably "more flexibility out-setting up your opponent in the late game if you manage to get a Magneton set up?" I'm guessing setup can be a little spotty in these formats, so you might get lucky and catch your opponent without a Pokémon to continue...

"Be careful what you wish fo--" *Unlimited Tag Bolt GX's intensify.*

Fortunately you'll probably be able to buy the playmat separate sale.

And designing games professionally, right? Speaking of which, what games have you been involved in designing? Or do you not want to leave a trail of bread crumbs that some stalker could identify you from?

Out of curiosity, since your profile describes you as a "bird trainer," are there any other birds you would be happy seeing if Pokémon decided making Pidgeot one of the best engines around was enough attention to give it? I always enjoy seeing Skarmory get attention, for example, and Swellow and...

The tradeoff is that Trainer's Pokémon often have trainer cards associated with them, just like Dark Pokémon, Pokémon SP, and any tagged card from Plasma Freeze through the last set to feature Paradox Pokémon. So, like with Dark Pokémon and Pokémon SP, even competitive decks can end up...

Well, as for Ethan's Pikachu and Ethan's Raichu (ex?), no baby Pokémon has evolved into its respective basic since the end of the Diamond and Pearl era, so I don't see why Pokémon should need to print Ethan's Pikachu and Ethan's Raichu. Also, N's Purloin was a notable Pokémon of his, but not one...
