    Does anybody here collect and not play?

    I like collecting, too. I don't play the game often, but that's mostly due to a lack of friends with any interest. :P Also there was a huge gap where I stopped playing, so I have a lot of old cards and a lot of new cards; there's some sets in between I've missed. I feel a bit stupid collecting...

    Ruling Misunderstandings and Mistakes.

    RE:   Misunderstandings and Mistakes. This misunderstanding comes up so often when I play with my friend. We argue every single time. Does anyone know the official ruling for this? Because each attack seems to cancel the other out! *head explodes*

    Ruling Swift vs. Metal Energies

    ooh, ok. i thought Jade meant that if the attacking pokemon was Dark/Metal type. My bad. :s thank you, btw. :)

    Ruling Swift vs. Metal Energies

    it would add the damage if you were Dark Metal, wouldn't it? if a dark pokemon with a dark energy attached used swift that usually did 30 it would do 40 instead, right?

    Ruling Swift vs. Metal Energies

    a question about metal energies... if somebody uses swift or something that says 'not affected by any other effects on that Pokémon', and the pokemon has a metal energy attached, is that counted as an effect?(i.e. the damage would not be reduced.)

    Booster Buying Tips

    yeah, I'd prefer not to let everyone know. over here it's not really that big, the only people i know of who play it other than me is my bro and my friend, and that's enough people for me. the card game and the gameboy games are the only things i like, i actually hate the anime and the games...

    Booster Buying Tips

    I know the feeling. >_< Also, as soon as I walk into a shop to get cards I seem to run into numerous people I know. How annoying.

    Booster Buying Tips

    yeah scales would make you look like a mega-dork. still, i guess we are all mega dorks. i'm getting some tomorrow, i think i'll try out the 'feel for bendiness' technique. :)

    Ruling Sorting Your Cards

    oh ok. yeah, I never bother. I should i guess. it's mainly because I have no sleeves to put them in but also because it would make it hard to play with, like shuffling and drawing and that, or if it was a prize you'd be able to tell it was an ex, etc.

    Cards that have been.... DESTROYED!

    Oh yeah... My Ninetails is peeling at the top. If i'm using it in a deck and shuffle my cards the other cards get wedged inside of it. :( So many victories with that card (when I used to use it..) :/ And Jade, I don't really mind about the condition but thatnks for telling me. :) It's pretty...

    Do you keep them in the sleeves when they're in your decks? ... wouldn't that be cheat-er-ing? :o

    Cards that have been.... DESTROYED!

    Woohoo! That's fine, condition isn't a big deal to me. Though I wouldn't like my cards cut into pieces, lol.

    Booster Buying Tips

    lol yeah i reckon. I got a Spoink the other day that was almost turned inside-out, I guess that has something to do with it. Oh ok, thanks Jade. :D But nah, I think I'll give it a miss. I don't have $50 to spend, lol!

    Succumb To The Dark Side

    RE: Hi Everyone! (Official Newbie Topic) Hi, I'm new too! lol. I've been trying to post lots on here so the forum doesn't die, it's a sad thing when forums die. Well I've been playing since the cards came out, but I gave up for a little while after the release of the neos and have only...

    Cards that have been.... DESTROYED!

    My friend's Charizard got cut up into seven pieces by a little girl, haha. Also, my mum threw out one of my brother's entire decks... however we managed to get most of the important ones back... Just wondering if anyone else has had relatively good cards destroyed... ?

    Booster Buying Tips

    Wow, guess the bendy card trick would work for Aus too since it's so damn hot. But I get enough weird looks just going in and asking for a few booster packs already, without asking if I can weigh them. :| They keep em behind the counter in a cabinet, you see. :( So even if I DID want to...

    Ruling Sorting Your Cards

    lmao, I think I did the worst trade ever, so don't worry. I don't remember all the cards I gave, but it included me giving away Mewtwo, Victreebel, Muk, Zapdos, Cloyster, Snorlax, Nidoqueen and Venomoth (among others) all for a crappy promo Mew. I don't know why I did it... :(

    Pokemon Your least favorite pokemon

    totodile etc were the best out of the starters for the neo series, i thought. Chikorita and Cyndaquil were pretty crappily designed, as was Blaziken. The originals were the best. (I liked Charizard, though not coz i thought it powerful.)
