    Discussion What is the Best Way to Run Safeguard Suicune in Expanded?

    Primal Kyogre. It's useful as a wall and doesn't take that long to power up. The thing with Regice is you need to attack with it but that means it's not susceptible to Silent Lab or Hex Maniac.

    Fun If You Could implement a Metagame Format For This Game, How Would You Do it?

    1. Doesn't mean you can't combat luck by making a deck/strategy consistent. :) You, you, you and all y'all do that so saying you can't do anything about luck all the time is hypocritical. 2. I don't know which TCG you're talking about because in Pokemon, Trainer cards have been big all the time...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    Pretty impressed by this card for some odd reason. People are gonna abuse Maxie's and the Fighting support.

    Fun If You Could implement a Metagame Format For This Game, How Would You Do it?

    Because all it does is Item lock for a DCE. That's it. Forget Bats, forget Garbodor. By itself, Toad isn't an autoloss so banning it would be stupid. If you can't deal with Toad, that's your problem and bad deck building/choices. No one argues about including Toad as a starter in a Steel (not...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    I agree with the last bit about the leg but you're still not telling me your personal experience with a T1 Rare Candy. Was the game broken then? Did you have a good chance playing against VileGar (which had the original Broken Stadium as well as Rare Candy that worked T1). Apparently Rare...

    Fun If You Could implement a Metagame Format For This Game, How Would You Do it?

    Toad will never be banned since it's not broken. No offence but your opinion doesn't have much merit to me since it sounds like you struggle to play against Toad and this forms your dislike for it. Or pray to Arceus that you'll top deck everything. In the HGHS format, people ran so many...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    Rare Candy actually was not this slow until now. It actually was nerfed in its BW printing to prevent people from evolving quickly and making the game more luck based. As for the broken Shiftry combo, the problem isn't the Stadium. It's the way is it worded. If it was errat'd or in the first...

    Next Destinies Shiftry Banned!

    Like others have said banning the stadium won't do anything good. An errata would help since you would only be able to evolve grass into grass Pokemon. So far there are no broken combos with that. The Stadium is a necessary and fun stadium to play. Imagine Vileplume without that Stadium. Right...

    Next Destinies Shiftry Banned!

    Can I come to your place and we'll feast on chex mix, nachos, chili cheese corn dogs, diet pepsi, etc? I said the same thing on FaceBook group I'm part of. I'm not liking how this practice can easily be abused. This isn't Yugioh or MTG where banlists are regularly updated. Though this TCG is...

    Next Destinies Shiftry Banned!

    http://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-news/shiftry-banned-from-expanded-format/ Well this had to happen. One thing to notice is now TPCi will ban more things in the future. Do you think this is a good thing or can it be abused? Anyways, time to work on Forretress donk deck! See how TPCi reacts to...

    Discussion What Are People Actually Playing???

    For Standard probably GiraPlume maybe later if people find a way to make it work, Vanilluxe/Vileplume. Also some kind of Steel deck perhaps and Vespiquen. For Expanded, Mega Manectric/Garbodor with Ancient Trait Articuno and Regice. Another one would be Primal Kyogre with Keldeo, Suicune and...

    What's your favorite Pokemon TCG set?

    Majestic Dawn. I love that set and the Lv.Xs were awesome.

    Discussion Strategies You Will Miss Post Rotation / XY-On tactics You Are Intrigued By

    I'm not worried about the loss of BW stuff since most of what I'll play is Expanded and the Season seems to have Expanded have a bigger presence then ever before with all Regionals, some Cities and League Challenges Expanded. I'm interested in trying out GiraPlume when I aquire more Giratinas...

    'Blue Impact' / 'Red Flash' Japan's XY8 Sets, Next Set Block Titled 'XY: BREAK!'

    Man I was hoping for an Ability that let you draw until you have 6 or 7 in your hand. At least this makes discarding Lightning energy decks more viable or a great support Pokemon to speed things up. This might not even be necessary early game for some decks but late game it definitely helps.

    Fun Should Shaymin EX be tinned?

    Competitive cards can be tinned/released as promos but as I've stated on multiple occasions, Shaymin looks to be one of the cards that are of player's/collector's value meaning TPCi wants them to be TCG status items. The case with the EXs you mentioned is different then Shaymin since since...

    Fun Should Shaymin EX be tinned?

    But you have to understand this. The first tins will definitely be the EXs from XY9 or the previous set like they always do. That would be the first to release EXs not from the latest set for the Spring Tins. The Next Destinies tins contained 3 EXs from the latest set at that time. Later that...

    Discussion Electric Excadrill?

    Rotation isn't that relevant since Expanded will be the primary format for the upcoming season. http://www.pokemon.com/us/play-pokemon/pokemon-events/pokemon-tournaments/

    Fun Should Shaymin EX be tinned?

    1. K. 2. As TC said, you should be more responsible knowing more about what you want to know about. Because of that, I kept wondering why you and others had hopes for a Shaymin tin (more explained below). You obviously check this site often so why not read more news this site has to offer? I...

    Fun If You Could implement a Metagame Format For This Game, How Would You Do it?

    I was too tired to type about the Weakness. It should be variable on the type of card. And no there are auto losses that happen without Weakness. Stupid Raichu/Bats beats M Manectric unless the wolf is partnered with Garbodor which alleviates the problem a little. Night March also auto wins...

    XY8 \'BREAKthrough,\' XY8 English Products

    They wont so they have more playability than last year's ones. And you can bet your butt that Hoopa tins/promo singles will sell like hotcakes. I know I'm getting some since I didn't get any from my box and the art/tin looks sick. Reminds me of the D/P days.
