Oh yeah, good point haha! Toad wasn't the only thing running through my mind, just one of the main DCE attackers that came to mind. But yeah, in my example you're right, I should've said Xerosic. Even more important not wasting a Xerosic as well, since it's a Supporter.

Yeah this has an obvious use in Yveltal with Y Cyclone. It also might change the way people play Enhanced Hammer if it actually sees play. Like take Toad, for example. Normally if you're playing a Hammer against Toad, you'd go for the Active Toad (assuming they have another set up on the Bench...

I'd have guessed that Altar of the Moone eliminates Weakness from Psychic Pokémon? Maybe not though. Sylveon-GX seems pretty decent. Only a Stage 1, one energy gets you 3 cards. Sure, you might get N'd, but you might not! It's second attack is okay with DCE, 110 isn't bad damage. As for it's GX...

Oh that playmat is gorgeous! Would be even better without the boxes on it. Oranguru is interesting, especially in decks where it can be easy to burn through your entire hand and put yourself in top-deck mode. Also makes N-to-1 less scary too. Not sure if it'll see much play though, it's HP is...

It won't affect the legality date either way, but the Snorlax GX box isn't out worldwide; it's not released in the UK (and possibly the rest of Europe) until the 10th of January.

Kukui isn't half bad! It kind of makes Giovanni's Scheme irrelevant as well. Although I've never actually played in a format without the "Discard your hand and draw 7" mechanic haha, so I'm not sure what that means for the game at large (assuming we're not getting a card like that).

200+ XY promos?? Man, iirc the promos in my binder only go up to 170-something so far, how many more are there?! A little irritated that these are league promos AND Black Star promos. I don't know how it works in the US, but here in the UK league promos arrive WAY late, so we probably won't see...

I agree that Shaymin-EX should be included in any list of "best cards" from the XY series, however I'm not positive I'd actually want it reprinting at this point (if we do get this set). I think they've left it way too long now, and since any reprint would allow it to stay in Standard for...

That artwork is gorgeous! Agreed that it's pretty unplayable without Blacksmith. Arcanine BREAK actually does have Blacksmith's effect, but that's not really helpful haha.

UK also got these early! I didn't know there were any figures for the Mythical Collections though? Although we never get them in Europe anyway.

That pin is super cute! The artwork on the Absol is... strange though. I've never heard of a 2-pack blister before? It's usually 1 or 3, isn't it?

I'm actually really liking the template for the new Trainer cards! Although the English versions will likely look slightly different as always. As for Nest Ball itself, maybe in SM-on decks (i.e. I'm thinking here when Shaymin and Hoopa rotate out) it'll see some play (although maybe not if the...

Really do hope they're released in another way. They're such beautiful cards, it would be a shame to miss out on them in English.

Yeah they have, I've never found Cubone or Marowak in my area but I've caught quite a few in the last few days. Thankfully the Drowzee encounter rate wasn't increased near me it seems; they were already v. common! And I am thankful for the extra candies - my buddy Charmeleon will hopefully get...

Yeah so the deck won the League Challenge I was at yesterday, so I guess it does have some power!

Probably not, our TRU didn't get the Generations promo cards - GAME did - so I'm doubting they'll do this. GAME might, but again, I doubt it. We'll see.

Those figures (particularly Solgaleo) are sweet! Shame we won't get them in Europe :(

If these are ever released in English I'm gonna have to get them! Such beautiful cards. I'm still not sure what warrants the price, though... particularly with 0 booster packs in the box.

Literally the day after Orlando regionals all of my Gyarados I had listed on eBay sold instantly :D I'm not too sure whether I like the deck myself. You do describe some positive match-ups there, but I'm just not seeing its strength overall for now. I guess I'll be seeing it at my league soon...

Yeah, I'd love those damage markers (assuming they're the cool glass-look ones you get in Japan and not cardboard) and poison counter... I'm guessing we won't get those in the English equivalent, we'll probably just get our normal ETB. In terms of VS Seeker being included (if this were to be...
