RE: Back to Basics Project: Complete!
That's unfortunate...but then again, Lost Legends has many viable Trainers.

Good thing this project hasn't died out yet! Spread the word!

Oops, when I was setting up the new patch for people to download, I mixed an old text file with the most recent image files. It gets pretty confusing when you have 5 different folders with the same name saved in various places on your computer. You'll probably notice a few other minor errors on the cards' text with that version. For example, Electivire's power is probably messed up. Anyway, everything should be fixed now and the new patch is available for download.

Shouldn't Gallade be dual type like Metagross?

Geez, Celebi, I thought you wanted to cut down on hyper-efficient draw/search supporters? Wasn't that the reason you started this project? That and getting rid of extremely overpowered EX creatures. This doesn't look very different from the real sets.

Uh, the supporters I've released so far are the exact same ones we worked on.
Consistency is a good thing. Cards like these have been in the game since base set, and they have been for a reason. Players like being able to get the cards they want to play with out in a reasonable time frame every game.
And actually, Venusaur-EX is significantly less powerful than the regular Sceptile we had worked on that you liked so much.
I started this project to create a more balanced format with less big-basic dominance, not a more luck-based format.

Dammit, my program isn't downloading properly! This seems like its so much fun!
Well, it really isn't hyper-efficient supporters because for example, Skyla, which is like Pokemon Collector, except that you only get two Basics, and not three. Also, to be honest, about 90% of all the cards are competitively viable in some way. In the real sets, only about 5-15% are viable, and they're mostly Supporters and Trainers (and Skyarrow Bridge). Finally, do you see any Basic with more than 80 HP? Exactly.

Frillish says:
"Once during your turn (before your attack) if this pokemon has no React Energy attatched to it, you may search your discard pile for a React Energy and attatch it to this pokemon. Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if this pokemon is affacted by a special condition."
So which is it? Do you search the deck or discard with this ability?
If it's deck then my deck idea falls apart...
