I expected the attacks to suck, though I'm surprised that Pokabu has 70 HP (as does Meguroku.) I must admit, the fact we keep the times 2 weakness is depressing.
The glittery borders are likely because these are the very first promos for BW. They'll probably go back to some yellowish border.
I kind of like that the card game seems to be toning down overall, but then we still have DP/Platinum stuff and Lost Link on the way. I just want to see the Tcg balance out a bit more. :/

The sparkly border is due to the speckle holo they're using on the cards. It was last used in the Movie 12 sub-set in '09. They'll go back to a silver/grey border more than likely for Japan, they've been well away from gold borders since 2003.
As for the cards: honestly, what do people expect? They're promos, they're basic cards, they're more for show and commemoration than general play. We can't discern how an entire era will go on a handful of promotional cards.

No levels, eh? Well, time for me to whine again...
I have several opinions on the cards. I'm frustrated that they still have x2 weakness and also that the background looks to much like hgss. I like how the format of the lower section is though, maybe because it looks like older cards.
They look like Gym sets. The final thing I like is that the title Basic is in silver, which might mean the border will be silver
On another note, Miguroko I predict, will be like this generations Hippowdon evo. Some Hippopotas cards had 70 health, with simalar attacks, and I bet it will be a stage 1 at its final stage.

ehh... They could use the old energy symbols. I hate that the HGSS cards look so fake with those symbols (and the old english text font was better too) and they will continue to use those... -.-'
offtopic: since we already know what will be our last Gen 4 set, did anyone notice that there is only 1 english card of Bonsly and Mantyke (both from DP, the 1st set) when in Japan they have a lot of them from the PCG era (owned/VS-style pokémon cards though, that being the reason we didn't get them)?

Aww I was hoping they would show some new moves on the cards
I don't really mind the look of these cards. All it will take is a little getting used too.
Man you people are hard to please >_> I think they look good.
Well it sounds like pokemon black and white tcg will still have time's two weakness or unless basics just have it.
As for the cards themselves (format and what not) they look nice. Playability wise they are the same as the 4th gen promos at he end of 3rd gen. Lame, useless, but says nothing about the set.
