    News Japan's SM4+ Set: 'GX Battle Boost!'

    Not ALL of them, but you're right, the max number of types on your bench is 8 (volc, galvantula, bisharp, and 2 others), which means you're hitting 80 for a DCE. This card is trash. Which is fine, since it's obviously not supposed to compare to the energy evolution Eevee in terms of usefulness...

    News Japan's SM4+ Set: 'GX Battle Boost!'

    Who would win: A fighting fury belt and an entire pokemon conservation reserve or 1 leaf blower?

    News Japan's SM4+ Set: 'GX Battle Boost!'

    Garb decks don't care. Golisopod doesn't really care. Vikabulu doesn't care. Metagross doesn't care. This guy can only be run in electric decks, which have no other amazing attackers rn. Xurkitree isn't going to warp the meta. Just like a-ninetales, most decks don't care, except in this case...

    News New USUM Trailers: Larger Pokedex, Mantine Surf, Updated Trials

    That's obviously a cutscene. In the non-cutscene gameplay portions where the trainer is walking through sudowoodo or walking around at the fire trial, there is no follower pokemon.

    News New USUM Trailers: Larger Pokedex, Mantine Surf, Updated Trials

    Why would you? It looks like the only clip of actual gameplay has the player walking through sudowoodo with no pokemon following him, so that would deconfirm followers if anything.

    Standard Shadow Hunter (Silvally GX / Necrozma GX / Dawn Wing Necrozma GX / Mimikyu / Lunala Prism Star)

    What is psychic memory helping you do? You one-shot garb without it, so it's useless unless you're specifically playing against espeon/garb and specifically hitting espeon. I would recommend adding Koko and Espeon EX so that you have the option of going for spread damage/devolve against...

    Standard Buzzwole GX Rush (Anti-Evo Deck)

    Marshadow is an extra buzzwole with much less HP. Your opponent wins after they knock out 3 buzzwoles. What are the odds that you can't find 3 buzzwoles with Brigette in the format? Marshadow is good in decks with a bunch of basic pokemon, but it's only good when those pokemon are not already...

    Discussion This Format is nuts because of Lele

    Just because the card doesn't have a literal parallel doesn't mean there aren't replacements. Octillery increases your consistency. Lele increases your consistency. They do it in different ways, and lele is stronger than shaymin, but octillery is just as much a replacement for lele as it was...

    Discussion Broken Cards...

    Yes, Konami would never print a card that lets you search your deck for 4 energy cards. Thank you for that wonderfully insightful commentary. Kiawe is limited by the fact that you need to run it in a fire deck, it's really hard to use past turn 1, and if you don't want to use it later in the...

    Discussion Broken Cards...

    Yeah, that dark hole is really gonna help when soul charge lets the mermail player discard 3 cards out of your hand before you've had a chance to play, or when they just negate your dark hole, or they have a dracossack and don't care. Lol @ the concept of ever considering Kiawe to be more...

    Soul Charge. Basically everything involving "Draco" in its name. zoodiac. Try coming up with some real arguments. Kiawe is a really fun, powerful card that leads to cool moments where you can instantly get set up. It's also not so strong as to overcentralize the metagame. Therefore, it's a...

    Discussion Silvally GX Deck Ideas?

    Steam Siege Weavile is pretty useless with Silvally. Most decks only have one relevant weakness. Just attach the right tool the first time and boom, problem solved. Silvally GX/Solgaleo GX has some potential, but I doubt it.

    Standard Necrozma GX / Garbodor / Meowstic

    You should definitely be using the promo tapu koko if you can. I would look at bumping up to 4 DCE's with 8 psychic energy, then cutting the crushing hammers, and maybe going down to 3 Altar of the Moone. Pokemon Ranger and Professor's letter don't really need to be there. You could cut 1...

    News September's SM4 Set: 'The Awoken Hero' and 'The Transdimensional Beast'

    Glad they're reprinting the SR energies to make them a bit less obscenely expensive. FA Buzzwole is the greatest card ever printed.

    News September's SM4 Set: 'The Awoken Hero' and 'The Transdimensional Beast'

    Our lord and savior Gladion actually has a decent usage. Greninja didn't just need to stream ninjas, it had to duplicates, then evolve into breaks. Being forced to search out that extra stage makes it harder to stream them. I think there's potential for the Bees. I don't think it's going to be...

    News September's SM4 Set: 'The Awoken Hero' and 'The Transdimensional Beast'

    "Let's make an energy card that can help stage 2 non-gx Pokemon be good THEN RELEASE A BUNCH OF BAD STAGE 2'S!" Bee duplicates seems cool though.

    News 'Shining Legends Special Collection: Zoroark-GX' in November!

    Doubt it. They both reference the concept of trading cards in your hand for more cards, but saying that either is a reference is unlikely.

    News September's SM4 Set: 'The Awoken Hero' and 'The Transdimensional Beast'

    Why would you? 150 isn't ohko'ing anything except marshadow, which nobody uses, and 120 can already 2hko almost everything. Choice band is useless on sylvally anyways. Being able to attach "Choice band, but instead of 30 damage it's 120" seems pretty good to me.
