RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. I ordered an HGSS booster box a few days ago and it should be coming in today. There's bound to be something worthwhile in it! I bought a few boosters yesterday and managed to pull another Fearow. Hopefully the box yields better, lol.

I was thinking about this the other day, actually. Nice idea for a thread! Back when Pokemon first hit the US, there was less information about it than there is today. Heck, that was in 1998, wasn't it? I was about 11 years old! The internet wasn't quite so ubiquitous or reliable as it is...

Years ago, when I first began playing Pokemon and other tcgs, I remember reading a lot of gaming magazines that talked strategy, card prices, etc. They were magazines like Scrye, InQuest and, most memorably, Beckett's Pokemon Collector. Scrye and InQuest have long since gone the way of the...

RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. Pulled an Ursaring Prime. Feels good, man.

Thanks for all of the suggestions, guys. I need to get ahold of another Floatzel, but I have to admit this is much faster. I playtested last night using Floatzel instead of Feraligatr, and was amazed ay how much quicker it was. I'll update the decklist in my OP when I'm through with...

RE: The "I pulled something cool" topic. Bought a pair of HGSS collection boxes- the ones with the Entei figurine. I pulled a Yanmega Prime, an Absol Prime and some other useful stuff.

I sleeve them and then stick em in a toploader. The toploader is then taped shut and stuck in a bubble envelope, whose seal is then reinforced with a strip of packing tape. I usually cover the to and from labels with a bit of packing tape as well, to make sure they don't become smudged or illegible.

That's a good point. Do you guys think that Floatzel could provide the necessary energy acceleration for Blastoise and other attackers like Alomomola, though? I suppose that if I had more than one of them in play it could work out.

Well, Floatzel would be faster. What would you run? 3-3 Floatzel? 2-3? The problem I have with Floatzel though is that he's pretty frail. His attack is no good, and with catcher, there's a good chance I'll end up having to attack with him.

You're never too old to do something you enjoy. I'm 23, married and in college. I mean, due to the social stigma, it's true that buying cards at retail stores can be a bit awkward, but in the end, it really isn't anyone's business what you spend your money on but yours. The only reason to ever...

I'm playing a Blastoise/Feraligatr deck these days and, if my opening hand/draws are decent, I can usually set up pretty quickly. They're all viable combos, though.

So long as TPCi can continue coming up with decent ideas for Pokemon, the more the better! I love how many Pokemon there are these days; the variety makes for an experience with more possibilities for personalization, I think.

Welcome to the game! I'm pretty new to it myself, though I'd played it in the past. I'd recommend buying packs and then, once you've decided what deck you want to play in particular, I'd seek out the necessary cards as singles. Theme decks are good for getting plenty of energies and there are a...

This is a deck I've been playtesting for a little while now and so far I've been pleased with the results. Any suggestions on how I could make it better, though? Rain Dance- {W} Pokemon: (22) 3-2-3 Blastoise 3-2-3 Feraligatr Prime 2 Delibird 2 Mantine 2 Alomomola...
