'Alter Genesis,' 'High Class Pack 2019' Sets Announced for Japan!

HIPPIE DRAGON POGCHAMP
Also the Cynthia & Caitlyn is completely out of left field, can't wait to see what it does
Volcarona GX looks edgy as heck
 
Volcarona?! Nice! One of the best Gen 5's finally got something good! Mega Lopunny is cool too (even though lowkey, more excited for the Puff over Lopunny itself). I'm excited to see the tag team trainer full arts though. Those could end up being good.

EDIT: Lopunny+Puff could be good in Archie's Blastoise possibly?? Interested to see where this card goes.

Drampa: 67
First Colorless card in the set: 73

Looking almost certain that the Jangmo-o line is gonna be in this set, with two Jangmo-o cards because it's a three-stage evolution line as per tradition in the main SM sets. The only other Dragon Pokemon after Drampa in the National Dex are Guzzlord and Naganadel.
 
Also a cool thing to note-

With this, the Igglybuff Tag Team and the Wigglytuff GX, we now have the entire Puff line available in GX form. I might be biased since I main Puff in Melee (I know, sue me) and I love the Pokemon, but that's pretty cool if you ask me.
 
Another observation: Armaldo's presence mean it's extremely likely we'll get Lileep and Cradily for the first time since Plasma Blast. They've yet to have just one fossil line in a set in Gen 7.

Ultra Prism: Cranidos and Shieldon
Forbidden Light: Amaura and Tyrunt
Team Up: Aerodactyl, Kabuto and Omanyte
Unified Minds: Archen and Tirtouga
Cosmic Eclipse: Anorith (so far)
 
Volcarona's ability may be: discard a fire energy from your hand, place 2 damage counters on one of your opponent's pokemon

Attack: Return 2 fire energy from this pokemon to your hand

Trivia on why Cynthia & Caitlin

Back on the BW anime aka the Worst Pokemon Series in the anime, there was a competition in Unova where Ash and Friends were competing. In that arc, we see the return of Dawn and her Piplup and the debut of Cameron who smacks Ash in the Unova League. One of the battles in the tournament was Cynthia vs Caitlin. And as a Sidenote, Cynthia and Caitlin were from Sinnoh
 
that volcarona is the coolest looking card I have seen...perhaps ever. Amazing. One of my favourite pokemon finally done justice~

if it is playable, it will just be the absolute icing on the cake.
 
That Alolan Ninetales promo omo. I need it. I wish Armaldo was better, but here's hoping for Cradily (if it comes)!
 
Those tag team trainers arts are so lazy, in the name of God, WHY.

I could have used them in my decks but I won't bother because I will have to see this Photoshop abomination -no, not even that, Paint abomination- every time I play them.

I pray the playable ones get a cool FA version. They are the ugliest cards I have ever seen.

The ninth Tag Team for Cosmic Eclipse should be Naganadel & Guzzlord. My current list is assuming that the Carracosta-GX gym promo will be in our set as well, so that would leave two unknown regular GXs
