    ALL 'Phantom Forces' Scans! [10/24]

    I'm looking at the cards for "pre-sale" on eBay and they are all using Pokébeach scans. One of the sellers took a picture of their computer screen in a poor attempt to blur out the watermark:rolleyes:. Looks like we're getting some free advertising.

    Dark Charge (Yveltal EX / Hydreigon / Darkrai EX)

    Have fun using your Rare Candy under Item lock. The only way I can see this working is if you buff the Hydreigon line to 4-3-4 and remove Rare Candy. Or you could fit in 2-4 Switch in order to get YveltalEX Active first turn with an attachment. Something like this: T1- Start Deino, Ultra Ball...

    Phantom Forces

    I just left my Phantom Forces prerelease. Got junk in my first six packs so it was hard to build a decent deck. Ended 2-1-0. I was relying on my last two packs for and ultra rare or at least some kind of good trainers. Got 2 Vs Seekers and last card of the day... AegislashEX!! Nobody pulled SR...

    Yveltal Variants: Raichu vs. Garbodor vs. Fairies

    Haha I've actually done the opposite. I've been playing with my Yvel/Garb/Seis deck less and less since Regionals happened because I hate mirror matches. It's not that I lose them very often but I feel like the decks in this format mostly just require luck to win a mirror match. I'm not a lucky...

    Xerosic

    I'm trying to incorporate at least a Lysandre's Trump or Xerosic in each of my decks. I've even thought about replacing the lone Lysandre with Xerosic in some of my tighter lists. I think it really depends on how people like to play if they will use Xerosic.

    ALL 'Phantom Forces' Scans! [10/24]

    Yay, bigger scans! I really like the AegislashEX because you can kind of see the translucent King's Shield-looking pattern in the foreground. Head Ringer is a name I much prefer to Head Noiser. Annnd maybe the most complicated card in the set: Robo Substitute! From what I've gathered by how it...

    Aromatisse Variants

    Really? Isn't it easier to just run Rainbows+VirizionEX? I mean Virizion even helps against Seismitoad a little. Sure there's 10 damage with the attachment but you just have to be smart with what you play it on.

    Yveltal Variants: Raichu vs. Garbodor vs. Fairies

    Pffft now everyone is liking Yveltal Garbodor again. Nobody believed me (at least that I know of) when I said it was good a few months ago. Anyways, Yveltal/Garbodor with a Dedenne or 2 is good. Apply pressure with an EX, get Evil Balled, return KO with Dedenne on a stacked YveltalEX. Dedenne...

    (2) Phantom Forces Set List, Pokemon TCG Illustration Collection [10/23]

    Wow I didn't even know the Flare Hyper Gear was holo. I wonder if these are going to shoot up like Lasers. Probably not, but they still look absolutely sick. Annnd Lysandre's Trump Card. Why? This is worse than Startling Megaphone, which I have actually gotten somewhat used to by now. Even worse...

    'Primal Clash' Set Description [10/23]

    Wow I totally blanked out there. I forgot Tyranitar was also Dark. :P

    'Primal Clash' Set Description [10/23]

    Did they... did they really make a rhyme at the end of the set description? This is probably going to be a good set then! Too bad one of the Megas wasn't Tyranitar, but then guess it would've had to be another Fighting type. Can't wait for 150 cards though! Maybe it will even be over 160 with...

    ORAS OR/AS Demo Gameplay Discussion

    Well, you get what you paid for. Actually, you got more than what you paid for (nothing). I'm not disagreeing with what you said about it being so bare, but at least pretend to be happy? The demo did have new features and a beach that looked like the Bahamas. I loved the graphics and think that...

    Internet Culture - What Is It?

    RE: Internet Culture-What Is It? Well just as you said, CJ, the internet is pretty much infinite, so different cultures would be infinite too. With the huge diversity of websites for different purposes and atmospheres, there is always something new to discover on the internet. This means that...

    Manectric EX

    RE: Yveltal EX / Manectric EX If you don't have a Pyroar problem, change the Beartic line to Garbodor so you can use Hypnotoxic Lasers on VG.

    Mr. $eismoneytoad and the Black Angry Bird (Yveltal EX / Yveltal / Garbodor / Seismitoad EX)

    Looks like a good list but from analyzing the results of other Regionals in the past few weeks, you will have about 50% of your games be mirror matches. In order to do better against other Yveltal/Toad/Garb decks you should include 1 or 2 Dedenne (FFI). I reccomend taking out an Yveltal for a...

    'Pokemon TCG,' 'Puzzle Challenge' Coming to Virtual Console in November; More ORAS Demo Distribution

    wtf I seriously just bought the actual TCG GBC game a week ago.

    Expanded: Gardevoir / Dimensional Valley

    These two could be a 1-1 line because you can either attach for a quick evolution, or get Espeon in your hand and attack for free. There are a lot of Psychic-weak Pokemon in the meta today, so the 40 on a Benched Pokemon+Weakness could win games. Not to mention, snipe any fresh Trubbish. I was...

    Kelga (Dialga EX / Bronzong / Keldeo EX)

    I think you might find Magnetic Storm to be a more beneficial Stadium than Steel Shelter, because KeldeoEX can already get rid of Special Conditions. With Phantom Forces comes your Dialgas, Aegislash, and Bronzongs. Unfortunately, it also comes with ManectricEX/MManectricEX, who resists Metal...

    Biting Bats (Crobat / Sableye / Yveltal EX expanded format)

    RE: Biting Bats (Crobat / Diggersby) First off, no. No, you do not need to worry about Mr.Mime because it blocks "damage" while Sneaky Bite is "placing damage counters". The only reason you would want to run a Lysandre is if you want to Laser a certain Pokemon. I think the second Megaphone is...

    (4) Some XY5 Cards Revealed, Xerneas/Yveltal Battle Arena Decks, Mega Diancie Box [10/14]

    I did a rough estimation on the cards here, so I might not be right. The Fairy deck has the two holo Xerneas promos(about $3 ea.), an Aromatisse holo(about $4), and 6 holo Fairy energy, which should be $1 ea. if this is anything like the Red Gsect Collection. That plus all of the other cards is...
