Sinister Serpent is being printed in English now.
It's the end of the world.
But on the plus side, look at all that shiny bling that players are going to waste their money on.
And I do like that 'winter of discontent' phrase at the end. Nice touch.
We're bringing Dr. Doom into this now?

That's cause Plasma Freeze is a silly name. I thought the "Plasma" in Plasma Storm was just a one time deal, but I didn't know they had to have the word "Plasma" in every set with team plasma cards in them. Just like Dragon's Exalted, Plasma Freeze doesn't roll off the tongue.
Calling it, next set: Palsma Rifle
Set after that, Plasmaed at him and tried to blew him up.
What I'm saying here is, in the DP series, and even the ex series with ruby and sapphire and all, they didn't do sub-sub titles. We had Rising Rivals, Supreme Victors, Arceus as a subtitle to Platinum.
Now, what do we have? the EX pun, like nEXt Destinies, Dark EXplorers, Dragons EXalted. After that it is Plasma this, and Plasma that. I wouldn't expect a set such as Spiral Force and Thunder Knuckle to translate as Plasma Freeze. The others sort of made sense, well maybe except Boundaries Crossed.
It seems now that we sort of have a sub series per year. 2009 is the Platinum year. 2010 is the HS year. 2011 is the BW year. 2012 is the BWEX year. 2013 is the Plasma year. I'm thinking we will see another Plasma set then immediately swap to a XY set and 2014 would be the XY year, although it started at the end of 2013.
Well yeah, even the Holon stuff had different names like Delta Species, Holon Phantoms, Crystal Guardians and Dragon Frontier.
Does it really matter what the set is named anyways?
Im excited for the Latias EX

IT DOES!!!!!! I do not like the name. But, the salamence V-jump promo better be localised!
The Latias EX looks so nice. I'd say the half-art looks better than the full-art as well, I've always loved the Eon Duo!
As for the set's name... Ehhhh, they could have come up with better. Plasma Freeze just isn't too nice. I don't think our August set will be Plasma XXXX, seeing as the whole theme of it is that Team Plasma had been thwarted, which can be seen in the card's artworks (breaking down ice, etc) and so many Plasma-combatting cards. Also it all fits in with the timeline of BW2
