I'd find it really strange for them to get rid of BREAK's so fast...
BREAKs lasted longer than Ancient Traits

Ahem's official, I'm blind
Oh, goodness. That'd be intriguing. Ha ha.Now give us Alolan Gardevoir Game freak >:3
Not gonna lie, they should at least release the rest of the megas just so all of them can exist. Heck some of them could've been in older sets;
- Camerupt and Sharpedo in Primal Clash (their base form EXs were in the set)
- Latias in Roaring Skies (to join Latios)
- Medicham in Fates Collide
- Pinsir and Banette in Steam Siege (seeing as those two megas appeared in the movie which was the set's theme)
- Sableye and Abomasnow could've had their own collection boxes.
Lurantis GX doesn't evolve from Lurantis, but from Fomantis, so it doesn't need 3 spots. So it's still possible 'Robinroot' has 2 formes.
Does this kill the current meta?
GX stage 1 stats seem pretty powerful... as a newer player just buying into the game, am I screwed once these release?

I think they'll be like Ancient Trait Cards (maybe the holographic ones), which is very dissapointingI'm really digging that artwork! I wonder if it will be textured like regular full art cards, or be like the non-textured full arts we get in the Red & Blue Collection Boxes.
I'm more on the line of 'OK' with it if they are making normal evolutions with them. The Legends have some silly-great abilities we'll see how powerful they are at least for sets they intend with GXes on the Lunala's GX attack isn't as silly as it only knocks out basics that aren't GXes which only nets one prize. We still need to see the prices of the attacks still though which now knowing the GX attacks aren't 'free' for an energy cost with the two GX we've seen so far.
It's goofy but we'll see where it goes.
By Lunala GX's current wording, it can KO any Basic EX as well, netting you an instant 2 prizes. Regardless of its energy or retreat cost, it's going to be competitive. With it's crazy good Ability, I'm already thinking of ways to accelerate energy and have it attacking by Turn 2; Wally into Stage 1s with α Growth traits. Stream basic Psychic energy with Professor's Letter and you get two free attachments per turn, not even counting Max Elixir. Move energy freely via Psychic Transfer and you're good to go!
I never said anything about EXes of course in the current format Lunala's GX attack will knock out Basic EXes but once we get to a Standard/Draft without EXes and only GXes it will only net one prize. It's quite clear in the design of that attack they are not going to make EX Pokemon for some time.
Also why would you want to use the Lunar Fall GX attack by turn two regardless of it's cost you only get one GX attack per game? I would think you would use a field of EXP Shares to keep the energy on the field then use Lunar Fall to end the game. I don't think Whiscash or Gorebyss Alphas are worth playing for the purpose of energy flooding.
