Dark Sylveon wasn't a dual-type Dark Pokémon as in the TRR style, but went with the TR/ND approach of it. This is a translation problem of sorts, but it's somewhat preserved in the English TCG – when we talk about Dark Pokémon, it's different from talking about Darkness-type Pokémon.

Buried Fossil can evolve into Kabuto, Omanyte, and Aerodactyl, all of which have been printed as Stage 1 cards.

Normies can keep out of my hobby. reeee

I mean, not really. The bed they made is the language they're currently using, which works fine

set logo looks like a 90s direct-to-VHS movie title

No, it really wasn't? You're kind of the only person I've seen to keep bringing this up and you're off by several degrees.

We've seen Pokémon bring in politics into itself over the years – their vocal support of movements like BLM, some kind of confusing (confused?) show of support for Ukraine in a war between Russia, etc. and there's this sort of passive-aggressive edge to it where it knows people will disagree but...

I've always understood these to be fanmade terms and often confused with one another. It's a strange hill to try and die on unless it can be "objectively" proven that the terms actually come from internal names for the foil.

I don't actually care for reverse holos. To be completely open, I'm at a point in life where I'm not interested in buying Pokémon cards anymore – looking at pictures of them are fine and I'd rather just play the game virtually through alternate forms – but nothing about this announcement has...

I like the tropius art. I wish tropius was in PLA. I am bothered it isnt ___________ ? SEX PESTS / WEIRD PEOPLE PLEASE DONT REPLY TO MY POSTS ?

i am not comfortable talking to weird people. so please dont talk to me. Thanks is it a sex perversion thing? i'm very uncomfortable from having to look at the post. i dont know why they did it

It'd be good for people to archive these. Japanese have a very different approach/philosophy to the internet, and just because they've put something up doesn't mean they won't take it down and keep it taken down. You're technically not allowed to share any of the art provided during last year's...

I think the purpose of the inverted color of the set symbol isn't so much ease of reading as it is implying the reverse holos – or what Japan always referred to as parallel holofoils – form a parallel set.

FAs have occasionally been printed without the texture (as an error, this has been documented by reputable sources), so that isn't necessarily a giveaway. It's the holofoil itself that makes me think it's fake – I'd want to see it in person in the off-chance this is an interesting misprint, that...

It's a bit loose, but I appreciate the Kimba reference doubt they'd want to reference a rip-off

Seems suboptimal. Why not group SV + SV1a together into a set, rather than SV1a + SV2?

It's a very bad set name!

actually, you are the soy switch owner and i am the chad gen 1 enjoyer

the ability to identify the design inspiration is tangential to the fact it's a terrible monster design

what the heck are any of those things? they look even less like pokemon than ultra beasts or anything from gen 9 did. no wonder they have to keep bringing back older cards and pokemon back
