Hello! My question today is: when do you lay down your Prize Cards when setting up for a game? It was my understanding that Prize Cards were layed down after both players drew their hand and put a Basic Pokemon on to the field (face down). I've only ever been to two tournaments (and...

RE: Collector's Showcase - Please try to post a picture! I hope this question is relevant enough to post here: How do you protect and display your collections, specifically completed sets? A plain old binder just doesn't seem to do justice, and the Pokemon themed binders I have purchased...

RE: Dragons Exalted is out. I'll add that sometimes comic book stores sell trading cards, including Pokemon TCG cards, as well! It's worth a shot if you aren't having any luck finding packs.

I agree. I wonder how popular Garbador/Terrakion decks will be. I started testing against it a bit more tonight (I played three games which is a very small amount). To be honest I was having a terrible time. I lost the first two games and only drew one prize in the first game and zero prizes...

RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. Sounds good! I would still like to find some more boxes from which to pull a few packs from the front :P. Unfortunately I think there is only one store in my city that sells booster boxes.

RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. Thank you! :P In at least four of the seven boxes that I opened, there was an Ultra Rare in a front pack. One box actually had one FA in each of the two front packs. I think that two more boxes had an FA in the front and one had a regular EX. I don't...

RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. I would stick with what you have :P. I have opened a few DRX boxes that had a couple of EX cards in the front area of the box and that was it in terms of Ultra Rare cards in the box. Most of my boxes had an EX card in the front two packs so I went to...

I know :P. I just meant instead of running "Tool Scrapper and/or Switch" that you could just run Switch and no Tool Scrapper.

That makes sense, I wasn't thinking about Hydreigon's high retreat cost. I'd almost rather them kill the Hydreigon and potentially have to take a seventh prize in the end than waste time retreating it, especially if I feel I will be ability-locked for the rest of the game. You said to cut...

RE: Dragons Exalted is out. I have noticed that the majority of the regular EX cards and all of the FA cards that I pulled from seven booster boxes were all Mint (not Gem Mint), and had a tiny, but noticeable, amount of edge wear. Has anyone else experienced this?

Don't forget about collectors who would be happy just to own the cards! :P

What would you take out to add those cards? Have you tested much against those two decks? I haven't tested against Accelgor yet (I plan to), however it would be awesome to hear your results. I don't think that Tool Scrapper is necessary. It's such a situational card and it doesn't help the...

I totally missed seeing the NVI Hydreigon in that list! I agree with Blui129 that it should be dropped and replaced with the DRX Hydreigon (w/ Dark trance). I tested using one NVI Hydreigon and two DRX Hydreigon and found that I was never able to use the NVI Hydreigon the way I wanted to and...

No worries, it happens to everyone! I've never tested with Giratina EX but I have read about it being a possible tech in a Darkrai/Hydreigon deck. I'd be interested in hearing from someone who has tested with it. I have a feeling that it would be a seldom used situational card. It could also...

I've been posting a lot of replies to Darkrai/Hydreigon decks recently! :P I'll give you a few of my opinions about your deck list! I have been testing Darkrai/Hydreigon for the last three weeks or so and have really enjoyed it thus far. Ultra Ball and Level Ball provide a great Pokemon...

As far as I know these cards are exclusive to Japan at the moment. I believe there is some speculation that they will be released in North America in the Dragon Vault box/set in October. I'm not sure of the details though so hopefully someone else can clear that up :).

RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. I just finished opening a case of six Dragons Exalted booster boxes. Here are my results! Dragons Exalted Case – Summary Box #1: UR (5): FA Rayquaza EX, FA Mew EX, Mew EX, Registeel EX, Reuniclus Notable: 2 Garbador, 2 Garchomp, 2 Hydreigon...

I think you might be confusing Dark Patch with Dark Claw :P. Dark Patch allows you to attach a basic Dark Energy from the discard to one of your Benched Dark type Pokemon, whereas Dark Claw allows the Dark type Pokemon that it is attached to to deal 20 extra damage (before applying Weakness and...

RE: Updated! WTB: Bianca and more! I can do that :). Please send me a PM to finalize.

I don't think that Tool Scrapper will be an easy fit in most of the projected top tier decks. Decks such as Darkrai/Hydreigon, Garchomp/Altaria, Eelektrik variants, Empoleon, Accelgor, etc. are already pretty tight and adding two to three Tool Scrapper may hurt their consistency. I like...
