11 Snorlax art: Ken Sugimori

Ooh! The set has finally arrived!

I'm loving what I see so far. Can't wait for more!

Not certain, but shouldn't there be another "1" before the second "of your opponent's Pokemon" in Dark Metagross' Poke-Power?

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn

Do you know how long I sat there debating with myself as to whether I should put the "1" in or not? Seriously Thanks Akinator

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn

I like it but I have one question. Have you have made this before and your remaking it, or this is new?

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn

This is a new set - so all the cards you see here have been made in the last couple of weeks, and more are to come

 

[Shadic]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn

Okay, good luck.

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Zorua and Zoroark!)

Thanks

Here's two cards, both with artwork by the amazing Xous!

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Zorua and Zoroark!)

I think Dark Blade should say, "If either of them is heads, this attack does 20 damage plus 30 more damage." Cause of Darkrai's Endless Darkness attack.

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Zorua and Zoroark!)

Hmmm... I'm sure I remember seeing the "1 or both of them" wording around back in the EX days but my memory ain't the best

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Shinx, Dark Luxio and Dark Luxray!)

You folks want more cards?

I went a bit abstract on the Luxio art here (because I don't think it's been done before... that art is actually the DP sprite ) although the Shinx and Luxray use Cascade's and Sugimori art respectively.

Nice as always, Flameh. And let's be real -- the Shinx line should've been Electric/Dark anyway!

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Shinx, Dark Luxio and Dark Luxray!)

Come to think of it, you have a point - although it is nice to see some pure type 'mon here and there Thanks

Seeker+SSU+Luxray's Pokebody=win!

I really like the cards FC and the artwork isn't too bad either!

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Shinx, Dark Luxio and Dark Luxray!)

Seeker?

SSU?

Sorry I haven't played the TCG in a while, but thanks for the comment

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Rocket's Zapdos!)

Bumpage!

Here's the first 'other rare' card (which are standing in for where the EX/*/energies would go) Art is obviously by the one and only Cascade Gonpory

 

[Shiny Shinx]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Shinx, Dark Luxio and Dark Luxray!)

Both cards that return your Benched Pokémon to your hand. Loving the Shinx.

The Dark Luxray looks really good, but I swear I've seen it already on a card once before, but I can't find it in my collection, o well. The Zapdoes is the best one in the set. Finally Team Rocket is back.

 

[Flame Claw]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Rocket's Zapdos!)

Thank you both
@MrGatr You won't have seen a Dark Luxray - the Dark Pokémon were around before DP

 

[MrGatr]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Rocket's Zapdos!)

Ya I know, but I mean the pic for the card, it looks awfully familiar.

 

[CMP]

RE: EX: Darkness Reborn (NEW: Rocket's Zapdos!)

It's the Sugimori art, MrGatr, so it's probably been on cards and other promotional items.
