So SR trainers are out? I would have preferred them over Mewtwo #9 and #10. I'm not a fan of having multiple Pokemon on a FA, which is a shame because Mewtwo itself on the SRs looks much better than the art on the other FAs.

I tried out Sceptile. At first it was with Trevnant EX but changed to a Lugia EX focused deck. It functions and is fun to play, but it's missing that hard hitting non EX attacker. Virizion is too unreliable. Maybe the new Pinsir will work well. The issue is that the healing rarely means...

Maybe not a reprint, but a card similar to Steven's Advice. Besides Lysandre stalling, there is little reason not to just fill up a bench without thinking much of it. A card like Steven's Advice would make players think twice about benching and all those Shaymin sitting there would provide a...

Due to the similarities of the two, Shauna vs. Birch has been a discussion ever since Birch was revealed. Discussion of this has gone fairly deep and while deck choice can make one or the other a bit more favorable, a players main reason for running one over the other has simply been preference...

An absolutely tear-able card. As in, if I pull this in a pack, I'm going to tear it. Assuming they shove it into XY Break Through.

Smeargle is interesting. Nothing notable really pops out for its use though. I guess you could run it with Rayquaza EX DRX to switch between lightning/fire in Rayeels/Rayboar/Rayzone? Seems really niche, but I'm sure there will be some deck that makes use of it.

I have wanted to see 2-in-1 Trainer cards and Giovanni's Plans certainly fits the bill! I hope the amount is as least up to 6.

I have been running this combo as well. There are a lot of cards that fit in this deck so good builds can vary or focus more on a few matchups. I don't like Flash Energy here. It's nice, but makes you vulnerable to the hammer. Fighting decks run Korina anyway, so it's not too difficult for them...

I was an active member on another Pokemon TCG forum, but when they decided to change the whole structure of their forum I lost interest. I really didn't like the changes the made so I came here. The forum structure here is great! I still check out the other forum from time to time, but the vast...

Misty's Spirit is huge for Vileplume decks. It can help set up, can thin out the deck of useless set up items mid-late game, and can dig for special energy.

Yet another BLW-era trainer reprint. Good thing Hypnotoxic Laser is a Team Plasma card, or they would reprint that too!

I always wanted gym leader's Pokemon to have a little bit of a unique flair to them. This would be great to see the main Pokemon of a gym leader have traits and features of the leader. Special Pokemon you see but can not own, but it's only a cosmetic change. It would liven up the Pokemon world.

With 2 Florges, Xerneas EX is doing 140 for a DCE or 60/30 for a DCE. The colorless cost in the attacks won't be affected. Xerneas XY could also use Geomacy for free and potentially deal 100 for a single energy.

If Mewtwo is Pokemon's Freiza, Zygarde is Pokemon's Cell.

Why bring Mr. Mime back to standard so soon? I really don't like this. I thought splash damage was going to have a chance to breathe. Of course people have to run Mime to get the benefit, but the option is there now. If they were going to print another way to protect the bench from damage I...

Hmm, let's see Mamoswine have a CCCCCCCCCCCC retreat cost.

Bouffalant PRC is a bit pricey at CCC but with it's Sap Sipper ability can OHKO Vespiquen as a non-EX basic. Which decks does Vespiquen have the hardest time with?

I wonder if Pokemon TCG Online had anything to do with the quick ban. There has been no expanded tournaments to show results, but PTCGO has been rife with Shiftry, completely souring the expanded format leaving many players unhappy.

Looks like banning is a thing now in the Pokemon Trading Card Game. They had a good run.

I was just thinking about how Houndoom is also affected by the less talked about side to Parallel City. Maybe a deck puts the -20 damage on Houndoom and uses the bench reduction to take prizes off the board. At -20 M Houndoom EX can't OHKO EX even with a Muscle Band. It's going to be interesting...
