Based on past release schedules I think it is a safe bet to say Gen 8 will be coming in fall of next year (barring any "please understand" issues of course). This is almost a year and a half notice, so for you younger readers or anyone really who is concerned about "not having money for a...

Ugh those sleeves are beautiful, but I had to give these up when Walmart Canada started charging 59.99 for them.

God these new cards are hideous. Whomever designed them should be fired along with whatever executive or team of executives who approved them. It looks so discombobulated and cheap. Also the fact that they are purposely not showing Solagaleo and Lunala's stage pretty much confirms that they are...

I was on the fence about Decidueye based on the leaked art and datamined sprites, but that official art seals the deal for me. Rowlet is my starter. I was really hoping Tapu Lele was going to be a Fairy/Poison type. 7 Generations and still no poison type legendary. I don't care what anyone...

Ugh these cards are ugly. Why is the hexagon showing the pre-evolution asymmetrical? These cards look like bad MS Paint card blank edits. Card design reached perfection in the DPPt sets. I wish they had never changed them.

Another very feminine looking pokemon... There seems to be A LOT of those this gen. Not a complaint mind you, just an observation. Very sad to see a regular Hypno on the box. I really wanted an Alolan Hypno that was Psychic/Dark. Ah well, maybe next gen.

It is a full art card.

After begging and pleading with my mom I got a Jungle pack and a non-holo Flareon was my first rare. My first holo was a Fossil Raichu. Raichu being my favourite Pokemon I treasured that card for a long time.

It is a bit over-designed for sure, but even Gen 1 had Pokemon that were over-designed (*cough* Magmar *cough*) that are loved simply for nostalgia's sake. Pokemon really does need to take a cue for Fashion 101 and EDIT their designs. Always try and take something away. It usually looks better...

Assuming (very unfortunately) that only Gen 1 Pokemon are getting Alolan forms I'd guess we will see: Bug/Psychic Butterfree Fairy/Fighting Jigglypuff/Wigglytuff Ground/Fire Diglett/Dugtrio Dark Persian (I can see non-alolan Pokemon evolving into new forms, but not new forms into old ones...

I have had 47 Tentacool candies for over a week, in that time I have seen at least a dozen Tentacool and every single one of them has fled. Ultra Balls, berries... all wasted. I am not meant to have a Tentacruel.

So the new trailer shows a lot of Pokemon riding...

I don't get the Kiteruguma hate. One of my top 5 so far this gen. His concept is fantastic. I hope he isn't a non-evolving 'mon cause I really want to use him. Mimikkyu is another brilliant concept and I hope his evolution (should he get one) is Raichu influenced. Raichu is my favourite...

Lunaala is amazing. My favourite legendary since Lugia. Love Rowlet too, though I'm not crazy about the name. In fact all the names so far have been a little off for me. Litten? Ugh. Popplio is kinda cute, but he seems really flat. I hope he improves when he evolves. Litten is just plain ugly.

Seel & Dewgong! "It's been 84 years..."

This set has a numbering issue. In Japanese sets trainers are always grouped by type Items (including tools) then Spirit Links (in type order), then Supporters, then Stadiums and lastly Special Energy. Alakazam Spirit Link is #75. Altaria Spirit Link is probably #76, Chaos Town is #78. That...

I completely believe that Z was always intended to be made. There is too much evidence to say it wasn't, but plans change and ideas are abandoned. Sun and Moon could be XY's game three, but it really doesn't feel like it to me. For one thing it has been way too long for a game three at this...

Been calling this since Zygarde was crammed into the anime. No Z, Gen 7 instead. Really hope this turns out to be legit. It seems to be, but there is always the chance we are being completely trolled.

Z isn't happening. That is why Zygarde has been bumped to the anime (when he was clearly supposed to be in this movie based on the teaser at the end of the last one), randomly inserted in the next TCG set without being its focus. He is being completely glossed over in order to begin the Gen 7...

Time to get started on my Pokemon Cube blog. I've always wanted to do one, but never felt like there was a place I could post it where it would be seen by enough people, or the type of people who could benefit from seeing it. Time for the format that has rejuvenated a small, but very loyal group...
