ALL 'XY' Scans [1/24]

RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

Ugh, those darn monkeys are rares again.

And darn they made Tauros into a rare. It's gonna be tough winning the pre-release now. :p

Looks like Swallow does not need to be active but he cannot choose the benched Pokémon to become active. could still be nice as a tech in Darkness decks and Yeti.

Wonder why Rhydon is a rare?
Anyways I like the artwork for the Xerneas/Yveltal half decks that have been seen ^^
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

I will express my opinion again, once the scans will be complete, but I only want to comment Aegislash now. It seems, that the ability is actually better then it was expected, because if I read it correctly, you can change the forms without “putting the newer one on the older”, you just take the one and change it with another, which sounds a lot better then if you have to put it onto that one that already is in play. ;-)
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

Rhydon's probably Rare because it can be a deck focus of its own. And really, it is actually good enough to take a Rare slot. (And is even one of the better non-holo Rares in the set at that.)

...And yup, Max Revive is terrible. Yay. I don't think knowing the top card of your Deck (unless it's an energy) actually helps with anything in-format. It's only even remotely good in combination with cards like Musharna that can then immediately add the card to your hand, giving you a worse Pokemon Rescue.

I wonder if there will be Secret rares in this set.... guess not because the japanese set didnt have them either :(
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

There are so many good cards in this set! I can't wait for the prerelease tomorrow!

Also, what's up with all the 5ban?

I also just noticed that a bunch of Pokémon's attacks read your opponent's Active Pokémon and not Defending Pokémon. What's up with that?

PCL must have hired them for cheap or something. I hope it ends soon...5ban is the worst thing to happen to the TCG's art.
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

Just finished mine 2 hours ago.. I got Yveltal EX for my first 6 booster and Xerneas EX for my 2 consolation booster.Unfortunately I only got 1 trainer from the 6 booster. The lack of trainer really did effect my deck performance since I lack of any other help rather than the attacking and waiting to draw my cards

Rhydon/Rhyperior/Celebi/Victini should make a good bad deck monday deck.

Max Revive is better than I thought it would be. From the looks of things, it looked like a worse super rod, but putting it on top of your deck is better. Could combo with Empoleon to get it into your hand instantly.
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

I'm so excited for this set. I'll be going to my first sealed tournament the weekend after its release (still have yet to attend a prerelease though), and will be getting a booster box in the mail shortly after the launch.
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

go to prerelease, getting the elite trainer box, and I ordered a regular box, the only thing that can kill my hype is if I either get no trevenants whatsoever, or if all my EX's are Emolga, actually if any of my EXs are Emolga that would suck

almost gave me a scare there, much less annoying If I get to pick the switch, basically a one sided escape rope.
 
RE: 120+ 'XY' Scans [1/24]

Has anyone paid attention to Vivillion? In my area we've got two confirmed patterns (Meadow and High Plains) and I know a while back WPM posted an image of an Elegant one. Did we really get all 18? My area is actually a High Plains area, but I can't imagine them being specific enough to place Vivillions by geographic location.

EDIT: Also, holo rares are REALLY HARD TO GET. Out of four boxes, one Greninja. Two Furfrous. Not good.

I believe Japanese only got 2 Vivillon patterns. So I'm going with No.
