[Water Pokémon Master]

New “ex Battle Decks” featuring Greninja ex and Kangaskhan ex have been revealed! They will release on October 6th for $9.99 each.
The backs of the decks also reveal some new cards from Obsidian Flames / Ruler of the Black Flame, including Bouffalant, Zigzagoon, Linoone, and Shuckle. The Japanese set should be revealed tonight, so we’ll see their full reveals soon.

Kangkashan ex (promo #055) is an alternate art promo that hasn’t been seen in Japan...

From what I've seen here, I can safely say that Kangaskhan ex is definitely a powered up version of the Kangaskhan from the Jungle set.

 

[sonicjms]

Too bad, I was hoping for more playable ex Pokemon in these like the Chien-Pao deck

 

[Bewear The TERRIBLE]

Maybe they'll give us a Cinderace ex next!? That would be exciting. ? ?

 

[XSHiNOx]

So Greninja is the water version of Meowscarada ex? Hmmmm

Pokémon should stop making such powerful cards, I hope it gets banned

So Greninja is the water version of Meowscarada ex? Hmmmm

Yes, but unlike Meowscarada or even Samurott VStar, there’s no ability that goes with it to spread damage counters in any regard. Samurott and Meow struggle enough with putting up their significant plays, and Greninja struggles on that more in exchange for Irida support.

 

[GrayAnt213]

Are the bouffalant and shuckle cards in the kangaskahn deck new? They are in a battle deck so I'm not expecting anything groundbreaking.

 

[Rage5637]

inteleon can make use of it. However I agree its not very good until we get a way to consistently get to stage 2

 

[Bunni]

Maybe they'll give us a Cinderace ex next!? That would be exciting. ? ?

As a Cinderace fan, part of me is wondering if there's a reason they saved it

I think a Cinderace ex in the next year or two is fairly possible

 

[chapi1979]

the trainer selection in the chien pao deck was really weak, so i'm not looking forward to this at all with less playable Exs.

 

[jdubs4lief]

I love Greninja, and I think Greninja ex has potential, but it likely won't see much play, at least until standard slows back down. Honestly, until Lost Box leaves standard, it likely will stay in the 2-3 turn early game before people start dealing damage.

Can someone with the sharp eye tell me the set numbers for these new cards? Because tbh, I tried zoom in, zoom out the images, it's hard for me to see the set numbers on the bottom left.

 

[Nintenfreak]

This is why we need non-Galarian Obstagoon

Tried again, think this is correct...

Shuckle 5
Lapras 45
Froakie 56
Frogad 57
Wiglett 58
Wugtrio 59
Zigzagoon 163?
Linoone 164?
Bouffalant 174?

 

[Chimecho3000]

Yus, been so long since we had Zigzagoon and Linoone.

Weird thing about Greninja ex being cut is that there will be a random Froakie & Frogadier in OBF. Similar to Mareep & Flaaffy being in SVI.

 

[FireLizard]

Honestly these theme decks are becoming worse since the V ones,and the ex decks are no exception.

 

[Chimecho3000]

Are the bouffalant and shuckle cards in the kangaskahn deck new? They are in a battle deck so I'm not expecting anything groundbreaking.

The Shuckle and Zigzagoon line have not been seen before but should be from Ruler of the Black Flame and should be fully revealed later today.

The Bouffalant is from the ex Start Deck that featured Greedent ex:

 

[dineinunes]

There should be one more ex cut from Obsidian Flames.

 

[N's Rhyperior]

There should be one more ex cut from Obsidian Flames.

The setlist is 98% confirmed and all the ex are already revealed.
