Not all of those are BW era cards, I did a quick search and comparison and here is the list: Potion - Base set Switch - Base set Pokeball - Base set super scoop up - Neo Genesis revive - base set (different wording) full heal - base set (current wording epedition base set) energy switch -...

Looking at the cards, I would say it has to do with a possible internal design goal to make stage 2s to be less desirable or have them be a drawing point to a different type of player.(timmy johnny spike)

I felt this was needed as this is a bit of meta news. But shaymin EX on the american secondary market just about broke 50$ USD on ebay. Link for quick search: http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_sacat=0&LH_BIN=1&_nkw=pokemon+shaymin+ex+roaring+skies&_sop=15 Also here is an image for...

Most likely if it meets the same two conditions that shifty had than it would most likely get banned as well. I really like TPCi's reasons for the ban as well. Edit: I think it is a good thing, they are stepping in when certain combos make for a play environment that isn't enjoyable.

Flashfire cause it is the neglected stepchild of design team and TPCi. It is almost like they didn't want to make a fire based set.

Understand that card should only be treating coin flips during their turn as tails unfortunately it is bugged and is treating all coin flips as wells including sleep and burn checks which occur between turns.

But than it would be able to abuse strong energy and all the fighting support already in the game :p Also liking how both can be ohked by AT golurk (muscle band or strong energy needed for mewtwo Y) :D

Am I the only one who is slightly annoyed Megas are an EX only mechanic?

Just went to a pre-release to day for ancient origins and stopped by a walmart that their vendor had stocked them early and here is what I have pulled from AO so far: http://imgur.com/a/0P2US Notable cards being, vileplume, arados, vespiquen, entei, lugia ex, registeel, and gardevoir

Does float stone really need to be reprinted so soon after getting rotated out?

Sadly all they would really need to do is just make evolution better instead of having to introduce a new mechanic.

Aww, guess he is just a worse Mega Gangar EX.

This may be a fun card to play with if he is still considered a stage 1.

Honestly I feel the complete opposite way, I'm sad they are leaving format, they really made people think twice about making EX heavy decks without a non-ex backup attacker or way to work around the ability. However I am a bit biased in the fact I have a burning hatred for EX cards.

Well my wallet is going to take a hit and all new players wallets since they have to buy 5 year old cards now.

What the fudge is the purpose of standard if regionals are just going to ignored the main competitive format of the card game?

I made that argument, I would have rather they just printed the cards affect under a new hoenn or kalos gym leader.

Why should plamsa be reprinted in XY? They played no part in the XY/ORAS series.

Why?

What I meant to say is why not just do a reprint with a new character but follow the sycamore and juniper rules (didn't know it was only for them and not tierno and cheren) but you can use rotated cards as long as you have a reference of a current card that has the same affect.
