    Discussion Random Underground Expedition Full Art Question

    Admittedly having not watched every Pokemon episode and/or movie, does the lady in the Underground Expedition Full Art card have a name? If not, can someone point me to where the underground expedition and the art associated with it came from?

    Help Dad needs help with 11 year-old daughter who wants to sell 1200 cards...

    I would go through and sort out all the uncommons (diamonds) and rares (stars). Out of 1200 there are likely only 300 or less not counting duplicates. Then start looking them up (make her do it on tcgplayer, if she wants to make the money), and keep an excel sheet. The rares are usually the...

    Pokemon Top 5 favorite Pokemon

    5. Squirtle - the sunglasses! 4. Zorua/Zoroark - so funny always messing with people, but a good heart (impersonating nurse joy) 3. Axew - thank you pokemon for the play on "ah-choo", when Axew's uncontrollable dragon rage attack starts out more like "dragon sneeze". 2. Buzzwole - New...

    SM7a 'Fairy Rise' Announced!

    Gardy was the first competitive deck I built for my wife. I so want it to be good again, so I'm really hoping these turn out to be good. I feel that field blower will be played less with the loss of Garbotoxin in standard, so some of these fairy charms might stick. Unfortunately, I feel that...

    Discussion (2019-On) What Supporters will we Use?

    With Sycamore gone, I'm interested in Sightseer as a potential inclusion in Malamar decks and other decks where you need to get energy in the discard. It is less costly than Sycamore because you can pick and choose what to discard and don't have to sacrifice resources, but also way less...

    Discussion "Basic" Sloppiness or not?

    Just went and looked at that Darkness Energy Special Energy Card, it even specifies "(Doesn't count as a basic Energy card.)" Thanks for the explanations, and the history lesson.

    Discussion "Basic" Sloppiness or not?

    @Otaku, awesome explanation! That seems like a good reason why Dark Patch has the "basic" language and Aqua Patch and the other energy search/retrieval cards with specific types don't.

    Discussion "Basic" Sloppiness or not?

    Thank you @PMJ That is what I was thinking. I will hold out hope that some special [L] energy will come that means you can get something more than basic [L] energy. And I guess Volkner would be broken instead of "meh" if you could use it to pull a Unit Energy [L][P][M] plus an item in a...

    Discussion "Basic" Sloppiness or not?

    Thanks, so now my question is has the distinction in language (saying "basic [L] Energy" v. just "[L] energy") ever mattered for cards allowing you to get energy from your deck or discard? Did they maybe stop saying "basic [_] energy" and just shorten it to save ink in the SM series since it...

    Discussion "Basic" Sloppiness or not?

    There may be a simple explanation, or precedent, or a that's just how it is done. Since I'm a new player I tend to notice some things only after making an AWESOME play, only to find out from my opponent that it doesn't work that way. For example, I tried to play a fun Alolan Exeggutor (ULP)...

    Ruling Mimikyu and Meteor Tempest

    @PokeMedic you said there were precedents on this issue, is that something I can search for? This is the issue we were running into disagreement over, and we now have two saying one thing and two saying another :). This comparison to abilities that allow you to use attacks so long as you...

    Ruling Mimikyu and Meteor Tempest

    At deck testing we had a discussion of the Copycat attack using when Dusk Mane Necrozma GX used Meteor Tempest. Am I right that Mimikyu could use Copycat but would have to have 3 total energy rather than just the P and C energy required for Copycat in order to comply with the discard...
