The goofier vibe of Gen 9 designs really shines in some of these. I particularly like the Dondozo, Revavroom, and Mabosstiff arts.
“Scarlet ex and Violet ex” Cards Fully Revealed!
- Thread starter Water Pokémon Master
- Start date
Great I guess we're doing that dumb thing where we pretend Dragon doesn't exist for a year and a half, bring them back, and wonder why they suck because they don't have any support.
- Looks like lightning types are back on the menu, boys!
- This set features our first true spider Pokémon (8 legs)
- Unlike MTG, the artwork on cards keeps getting better and better
- I will definitely make a full foil Dondozo deck
All in all, Gen 9 looks like it’s off to an amazing start. Can’t wait until March!

I expected a lot of the cards to be bland honestly.It happened the same in Sword and Shield.
Also Mabosstif's artwork is hilarious
Also Mabosstif's artwork is hilarious
good
Revavroom is a pretty good (draw) engine, which I find delightful. They saw their chance and took it
Seems like our set is complete:

Lot of new cards today, it's normal a mistake like this. ^^
Lot of new cards today, it's normal a mistake like this. ^^
1. NEST BALL!!!! MY BABY
2. I really, REALLY hope one of the future sets focuses on the more feminine Pokemon like Espathra, Tinkaton and Scream Tail. This generation is filled with amazing feminine-presenting Pokemon and Tinkaton is the most beloved Pokemon in japan right now. Why not do a set based on those 3?
3. I am going to make a Gyarados EX in ptcgl as soon as this comes out. 300 HP on a stage 1 (340 with dumbbells), immune to bench damage, AND it can regularly pull off 360 damage? While I am tired of Gyarados in general, this is a wonderful card and could potentially be meta in expanded, with Inteleon, Dumbbells and DCE.
4. Is anyone else excited to see the EXes of the starter Evolutions? I hope they're all good cards- as opposed to the last few generations of starter 2-prizers...

N's Rhyperior
Aspiring Trainer
Cacnea/Cacturne - srsly, when was the time this ability is useful? none. 2/2
Skiddo/Gogoat - Gen 9, still bad. 1/1
Smoliv/Dolliv/Arboliva - dreams crushed. Hope it'll got ex'd so that at least the card has some niche. This is new, 2 basics per evo line. This is like in the Block B era. Nice. 2,3/2/3
Heracross - meh. 2
Scatterbug/Spewpa/Vivillon - good abilities on pre-evos, bad Vivillon. I still need Ocean Vivi in GO. 3/3/1
Tarountula/Spidops ex - Emphasize the bold for the correct spelling. Spidops seems kinda nice. Leafeon VMAX but 2 of its key components slapped into one card. 2,3/4
Capsakid/Scovillain - nah. 2/3
Toedscool/Toedscruel - still nah. 2/3
Torkoal - 130 HP on a Torkoal seems new to me. 2-3
Charcadet/Armorouge - Quagsire but Fire type, and Fire types only got Magma Basin. Well... 2,3/4
Growlithe/Arcanine ex - like what I said before, I don't like it. 3/3
Houndour/Houndoom - meh. 2/2
Slowpoke/Slowbro - ??? Still... 2/2-3
Magikarp/Gyarados ex - OHKO everything... But for 5 energy. But it is doable, with the fact that we have Palkia, Hawlucha, and Kyurem in the format. Melony works on Vs tho, this is an ex. 3/4-5
Buizel/Floatzel - new era, still have bland cards. 2/2-3
Bruxish - 3 gens, still don't have a good card. 2
Wiglett/Wugtrio - even with Glimwood, mill still sucks. Even worse without. 2,3/3 Also, 3 energy, if I am gonna mill my opponent, it must be 1. But then again, mill still sucks.
Clauncher/Clawitzer - wth is tis? 2/2
Cetoddle/Cetitan - Steelix-like HP. 2,3/3
Dondozo/Tatsugiri - Firstly, I love this duo. Secondly, GO Articuno might have some use here (+10 dmg to basic W Pokemon). Running 2 GO Articuno could nullify the secondary effect of Double Turbo. Because, if you have 4 Tatsu in discard, that 200. Plus Comp. Band/Choice Belt, 230. Basically KO any Vs and basic exs. 4-5/3 Tatsu is useful if you have a bad start btw.
Wattrel/Kilowattrel - no words except meh. 2,3/2-3
Magnemite/Magneton/Magnezone ex - my prev argu still stands on Magnezone. 2/2/3-4
Pachirisu - if Pachi was the same as good as TEU Zapdos before... 3
Rotom - is Sableye still banned in Expanded? If it is, good. Coz, this thing meh without the ability to search tools. 3
Toxel/Toxtricity - have you ever guys see the wording "Discard X random card(s) from your opponent'd hand"? C'mon, so many times already. 2/3
Pawmi/Pawmo/Pawmot - 130 HP Stage 2 that can KO Vs/Basic exs. I have a question, what will happen to the second one after you KO it? 2,3/3/3-4
Miraidon ex - meh attacker, good support. 4 Geodudes
Drowzee/Hypno - sucks it was on a coin flip. 3/3
Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir ex - I am now slowly convinced. 2/2/4-5
Shuppet/Banette ex - this thing is a monster srsly. Sure, item lock gets less powerful, combining the fact that its second atk nooks your opponent, oh my... Do we have SS stuff that searches Single strike Pokemon, because Shuppet is a SS in CHR? 2/4-5
Flabebe/Floette/Florges - no weakness on a Stage 2, NEXT... 2/2/3
Flittle/Espathra - another one of those... 2,3/2-3
Drifloon/Drifblim - don't sleep on Drifloon, this could be a banger. 3-4/3
Dedenne - what? 2
Fidough/Dachsbun - if R are still relevant rn, in which it doesn't... 2,3/3
Klefki - this shuts off Comfey really.. I know, most basics but Comfey is the main highlight here. Lumi doesn't count, since it doesn't get affected because the ability procs when played from your hand... We need a ruling. Or @Toinelay idk. 4
Greavard/Houndstone - now I'm convinced that Greavard was a bit okay. The attack is named "Last Respects", btw. (That's why I always have multiple sources for this one.) 3-4/4
Meditite/Medicham - meh. 2/2
Mankey/Primeape/Annihilape - sucks that the brokenness in the main games doesn't reflect in the TCG. 2/2/3-4
Riolu/Lucario - I tell you, 60% of the time it doesn't work. 2/3-4
Sandile/Krokorok/Krookodile - the last time we see F type Krookodile was in 2012, iirc. 2/2/3
Hawlucha - well, it's in the set, expect a lot of these. 4-5
Silicobra/Sandaconda - meh. F types got robbed already, this adds the problem. 2/2-3
Klawf - moo sounds. 2
Great Tusk ex - better than Iron Treads altho we don't have decent energy accel rn. I don't count Koraidon btw, I don't like the second part of the ability. Not turn 1 friendly. 3-4
Koraidon ex - speaking of... 4 Geodudes
Grimer/Muk - I've seen this ability before... 3/3
Seviper - meh. 2
Croagunk/Toxicroak ex - again, the wording "during Pokemon Checkup" = "in between turns". Srsly, guys... I see it now. 2-3/3-4
Spiritomb - we've seen this on Pinsir, nah gud. We've seen this on Kleavor, nah gud. Are we expecting Spiritomb to change it? 2-3
Maschiff/Mabosstiff - cool if you switches their bench, not theirs. 2,3/3-4
Pawniard/Bisharp/Kingambit - if we only have something to cheat this out Turn 1. Also, realisitacally, this is UNB Incineroar. 2/2/4
Bombirdier - searches tools. 3
Varoom/Revavroom - not to play faves, but I kinda like this. 2,3/4
Pineco/Forretress - nah. 2/2-3
Iron Treads ex - 2-3
Chansey/Blissey - heal all special conditions? 2/3
Zangoose - more bland stuff. 2
Starly/Staravia/Staraptor - another bland stuff. 2/2/2-3
Lechonk/Oinkologne ex - 160 base for 2. That's it. Not even KO a basic 2-prizer without damage mods. 2,3/2
Skwovet/Greedent - explain this Skwovet to me and why this is a good one. 3-4/3
Indeedee - 2
Tandemaus/Maushold - srsly, again. Also, neat attack on Maushold. 1,3/3-4 Hopefully Palafin ex with Jet Punch won't come or else, this is an easy wipeout.
Squawkabilly - 2
Cyclizar - why this thing draws 2 cards a holo rare? 3
Nest Ball - basically SM era all over again with mandatory playset of these and Ultra Ball.
Pal Pad - okay. Not seen play before
Rock Chesplate - nah. 3
Jacq - buffed Elms or basically the same, idk. 3
Penny - pretty good card. 4-5
Professor's Research - are we seeing Boss' Orders soon?
Picnic Basket - idk wth is that? 3
Rare Candy - seems a must with all these Stage 2 exs.
Rocky Helmet - why it's still there?
Katy - good, if you omit the "your turn ends" thing. 2-3
Miriam - why Miriam? Of all things? Srlsy, I love this card btw, expect the FA to be $$$, if she has one. 4
Arven - searches tools at least. 3-4
Beach Court - buffs Comfey. 4
Mesagoza - new default stadium. 3-4
Starter Decks - nothing interests me, except Quaquaval being decent Stage 2 at least, Youngster being renamed Shauna, and Vitality Band still doesn't get snapped.
Skiddo/Gogoat - Gen 9, still bad. 1/1
Smoliv/Dolliv/Arboliva - dreams crushed. Hope it'll got ex'd so that at least the card has some niche. This is new, 2 basics per evo line. This is like in the Block B era. Nice. 2,3/2/3
Heracross - meh. 2
Scatterbug/Spewpa/Vivillon - good abilities on pre-evos, bad Vivillon. I still need Ocean Vivi in GO. 3/3/1
Tarountula/Spidops ex - Emphasize the bold for the correct spelling. Spidops seems kinda nice. Leafeon VMAX but 2 of its key components slapped into one card. 2,3/4
Capsakid/Scovillain - nah. 2/3
Toedscool/Toedscruel - still nah. 2/3
Torkoal - 130 HP on a Torkoal seems new to me. 2-3
Charcadet/Armorouge - Quagsire but Fire type, and Fire types only got Magma Basin. Well... 2,3/4
Growlithe/Arcanine ex - like what I said before, I don't like it. 3/3
Houndour/Houndoom - meh. 2/2
Slowpoke/Slowbro - ??? Still... 2/2-3
Magikarp/Gyarados ex - OHKO everything... But for 5 energy. But it is doable, with the fact that we have Palkia, Hawlucha, and Kyurem in the format. Melony works on Vs tho, this is an ex. 3/4-5
Buizel/Floatzel - new era, still have bland cards. 2/2-3
Bruxish - 3 gens, still don't have a good card. 2
Wiglett/Wugtrio - even with Glimwood, mill still sucks. Even worse without. 2,3/3 Also, 3 energy, if I am gonna mill my opponent, it must be 1. But then again, mill still sucks.
Clauncher/Clawitzer - wth is tis? 2/2
Cetoddle/Cetitan - Steelix-like HP. 2,3/3
Dondozo/Tatsugiri - Firstly, I love this duo. Secondly, GO Articuno might have some use here (+10 dmg to basic W Pokemon). Running 2 GO Articuno could nullify the secondary effect of Double Turbo. Because, if you have 4 Tatsu in discard, that 200. Plus Comp. Band/Choice Belt, 230. Basically KO any Vs and basic exs. 4-5/3 Tatsu is useful if you have a bad start btw.
Wattrel/Kilowattrel - no words except meh. 2,3/2-3
Magnemite/Magneton/Magnezone ex - my prev argu still stands on Magnezone. 2/2/3-4
Pachirisu - if Pachi was the same as good as TEU Zapdos before... 3
Rotom - is Sableye still banned in Expanded? If it is, good. Coz, this thing meh without the ability to search tools. 3
Toxel/Toxtricity - have you ever guys see the wording "Discard X random card(s) from your opponent'd hand"? C'mon, so many times already. 2/3
Pawmi/Pawmo/Pawmot - 130 HP Stage 2 that can KO Vs/Basic exs. I have a question, what will happen to the second one after you KO it? 2,3/3/3-4
Miraidon ex - meh attacker, good support. 4 Geodudes
Drowzee/Hypno - sucks it was on a coin flip. 3/3
Ralts/Kirlia/Gardevoir ex - I am now slowly convinced. 2/2/4-5
Shuppet/Banette ex - this thing is a monster srsly. Sure, item lock gets less powerful, combining the fact that its second atk nooks your opponent, oh my... Do we have SS stuff that searches Single strike Pokemon, because Shuppet is a SS in CHR? 2/4-5
Flabebe/Floette/Florges - no weakness on a Stage 2, NEXT... 2/2/3
Flittle/Espathra - another one of those... 2,3/2-3
Drifloon/Drifblim - don't sleep on Drifloon, this could be a banger. 3-4/3
Dedenne - what? 2
Fidough/Dachsbun - if R are still relevant rn, in which it doesn't... 2,3/3
Klefki - this shuts off Comfey really.. I know, most basics but Comfey is the main highlight here. Lumi doesn't count, since it doesn't get affected because the ability procs when played from your hand... We need a ruling. Or @Toinelay idk. 4

Cyclizar ex should become a promo.
I really kinda shook my head when I read Gyarados ex.
Serious PTCG? I wanted the game to get away from that power gallop (it's not a creep anymore lets be honest!) but they print a card that deals 360 damage with easy to fullfill conditions.
If Lightning wasn't so prevelent and blatently pushed in this set, I'd say welcome to the new overlord.
Had high hopes to an end of those basic EX BS cards/decks/mechanics but they just put the pedal to the metal and went all in on increase in HP and damage dealt.
Back to the set:
Wugtrio looks fun! But sadly it needs way too much energies for its mill effect. :-(
I'm a sucker for alternative win cons in card games.

I'd hardly call 5 energy and having already damaged the Pokemon to be "easy to fulfill". There are many cards in SwSh that are powercreeped way more.
Scatterbug/Spewpa seems like it would be fun with the Vivillon from BREAKthrough that attaches energy on a coin flip. If you're exceedingly lucky you could get 13 energies into play on your first turn (with Scoop Up Net/Super Scoop Up/Scoop Up Cyclone).
Also they just keep printing really bad Skwovets/Greedents. Who is asking for these.
