YES YES YES YES YES YES!!!! OMG I can't believe how perfect this is!!! I was hoping for HS-on, but being able to have that before Nationals is absolutely AMAZING!!! All the decks that I've been building recently have been HS-on (except for the starters, which I'll have to rethink...), and I'm overjoyed now that I can play them with no threat of Sabledonk for Nats xD YAY!!!

Why did you go through all that effort knowing that SP's were
going to rotate out of the format? That's just silly.

I"m actually really glad for the HGSS-on format change. A lot of the deck building and planning that I've been doing has been based around that. It may take some adjusting for a lot of players, but it's looking to me a really fun format.

How do you know they "just stuck it there"? It's definitely a cushion that makes there be a chance it won't happen. Why wait until June? Because they want to wait for results which are not in yet. Let's not make assumptions here.
dmaster out.

Lol asides from the fact I probably just lost around 700$ worth of card, this rotation is OK I guess. It is taking a lot of getting used to, I keep trying to think of combos and I find myself saying, "with E-Belt" or, with Landmin in play and things like that.

I came back in January and I saw this coming. When I told people at my league that this would happen they scoffed and now that it is imminent it makes me laugh. As they all said it was not possible at all. So all those naysayers we where right and you where wrong. = D

Think that's a simile.
Anyway, this is both good news and bad news, assuming that it happens. Good for obvious reasons, but bad because there was finally a one-stop way out of the game that made everything obsolete and gave you immense satisfaction. Oh well, there's always Redshark.
...And in other unrelated news, TPCi uploaded DP episodes to their website. What happened to 3 every Friday, in chronological order? >_>

I'd actually been predicting the HGSS-on rotation for ages now - it was a totally likely idea back then, and it was just as likely to happen a few months later.
An HGSS-on format is actually probably the best thing we could get right now. All the DP era cards are gone completely (which is just as well - SPs have overstayed their welcome) and now we're starting afresh with a new card bloc.
Granted, Arceus-on format was just as likely, and the one set won't make too much of a difference, but at the same time we could go without it.
For those who are wondering, Nationals happens on July 8th-10th. That means, if they do the mid-season rotation, it will be right before Nationals. (I'm only sad that, if this actually does happen, I'll miss out the chance to run RegiAwesome at Nationals, but I'll live.)
