(1) The Full Arts, EX's, and Shiny Pokemon of BW6 [7/10]

Landorus-EX - Fighting - HP180
Basic Pokemon

[F] Hammerhead: 30 damage. Choose one of the opponent's Benched Pokemon and this attack does 30 damage to it.
[F][F][C] Justice of the Earth: 80 damage. You may discard all Fighting Energy attached to Landorus-EX. If you do, this attack does 150 damage.
 
Too bad Junk Arm will probably be gone by the time we get PC Communication, as that combo seems incredible.

All of the EXs seem fairly mediocre (other than Kyurems). Celebi EX seems kinda cool, but I don't think it'll work out. Cresselia is okay solely because of the ability (90 for 4!!!) and Keldeo is pretty bad (110 for three isn't too bad, but you can't use DCE without weakening the attack).
 
Wait... Only one ACE SPEC per deck...?! I should read cards more goodly like. Kinda sucks for Black Kyurem and White Kyurem. But I guess they need a little balancing out, though.

Anyway, I'm not too impressed with the EXs (There stats, not there artwork). Obviously, BK and WK are really great. Landorus EX could be that fast attacker that mono fighting needs. Celebi EX is pretty bad. But I bet someone will find the perfect combo for it. Cresselia EX could be used to make 2HKOs on EXs into 3HKO, like Potion does in Quad Entei. Keldeo Is... bad. I think he's the Kyogre of the set. Without Feraligatr Prime, Water Types have no acceleration to make this attack awesome. Maybe it could be a 1-off in Klinklang (If anyone still uses it), move 6 or 7 energies on it and sweep with it. The Full art trainers look AWESOME! It makes me glad I collect full arts :D

Most of the Trainers are meh. The ACE SPECs are good. But with only 1 per game (Without Recycle or Sableye) they won't be game changing. Hugh is okay, Town Map (Celebi beat them to that one :p) is a nice card. And is the [C] next to Aspertia City a typo? Or will you need an energy to use it's effect (which doesn't make any sense but I'm still curious)? Bicycle is definitely good. But for a Draw Item, it's not overpowered in speed decks like say Poke Drawer +

And for the Shiny Reprints. Rocky Helmet... Just saying it out loud makes me laugh. Where's our Eviolite? Or Tool Scrapper. Just ANYTHING other then Rocky Helmet. Since I'm a huge fan of this Golurk, hopefully this means that it's doing well in Japan :D

Oh, and any reason you got a bigger scan of the Bianca FA compared to the others...? Don't answer that.

No. It gives the effect to [C] type Pokemon.
 
Awesome cards!

I especially like the new golden border for the UR cards:

I WANT IT SO BAD :<
Also Altaria, that's good too.
 
It makes me kind of sad that we now have an EX with the Ability of a Stage 2 (Cresselia and Serperior). Also Bicycle PC Communication are both horribly overpowered, it looks like to me.
 
If only PC Communication wasn't an Ace Spec card.

If only...

I don't care if Bianca is worse than Cheren! I'm running it for the sake of getting that Holo goodness.

Landorus-EX :D

New format in a nutshell: If you get PC Communication in the discard pile and your deck runs Sableye, you auto win.
 
These full art cards are.... so gorgeous. Definitely the best set of FAs we've seen so far overall. Seriously considering upping the amount of my preorder so I can get more of these. Ohman.
 
Full Art Bianca and Cheren are disgusting. I was hoping for Skyla.

Love the cool ACE SPEC cards. None of the EXs look good to me though.
 
The BW TCG era is ticking me off more and more with the chase cards from each set, honestly. Yay, more and more super special Trainer sparkly cards! Just what I'm not particularly interested in but still have to care about in order to collect complete sets. :/

You and your vendetta against shiny Trainer cards :p
Do Pokemon have a monopoly on being sparkly and smooth?

In the POKEMON Trading Card Game, yes, they should! :p

But the PC is the most important piece of equipment that a Trainer could ever hope to use? It does make a bit of sense that at least Computer Search is a rare card, right?

But I understand your point; that isn't something that should be common. Rocky Helmet? I don't even get why. They usually put the catch cards as shinies. I don't think decks even in Japan run Rocky Helmet often.
 
I don't mind the ACE SPECs now that I've found out they apparently have the same pull rate as a holo of a Pokemon. But Rocky Helmet is pretty inexcusable, and I could do without full art Cheren and even Bianca although her FA is cute.

It just seems silly to me to get full arts of Trainer cards when there's a lot of important people in the games who don't even have a regular card and probably won't ever get one. I mean, if they make a FA Skyla ever, when Cress, Chili, Lenora, Burgh, Elegaga, Clay, Brycen, Drayden, Iris, Roxie and Marlon all never even get one card, I'm DONE. :p
