Yay first reply, um turn 2 100?.. easily, well thats all the other turn 2 decks outa the window. With a basic Mewtwo similar to the old movie promo (which I used 2 use waaay too much) but just better, and a level up that is that good, not much is going to get in Mewtwos way... except maybe a Banette or other fast psychic. Hype away!

Wow. Another Infernape. Now with less cards needed. You can T2 90 with three cards... Though getting out is harder.
Until we see Gligar and Gliscor, Gliscor may or may not be incrediably fast. Though the attack highly conuteracts it's power.

From what I can remember about PMJ's set list, his looks close to exact list so far, only I think he had the legendary birds. That's only 3 Pokémon, so it's hardly bad. The only thing I do hope for is the addition of Claydol. I still can't wait for the scans! Oh, and at the possible names for the filler set, though mainly Unseen Wonders, actually sound plausible!
Mewtwo Lv.X is just, wow. 100 for PP? OK, so you'd need an energy accelerator to do it every turn, but still, wow. Hardly a bad Poké-Body either. And the normal version from DP4 is good as well. Could end up being used quite a bit. Gliscor Lv.X isn't too shabby either, with an auto Paralyze Poké-Power. If Gliscor has a good attack, I could see it being used a lot.

Wow. Both cards are insainly broken, IMO. Gliscor will be the new Lucario. Or, just use Gliscario. 70 and send to the bench, then bring up Lucario to snipe off the weakened pokemon.
Another thing I could see is Glisade. Hit them for 70 and send them to the bench, the Teleportation Gardevoir and Bringdown (after taking 70 Damage, they will mostlikely be KO able).
Both Lv.X's seem to be great. Can anyone say "Mewcatty"?

OMG! The Lv. X are powerhouse, IMO.
Mewtwo = New Infernape without rare candy!
Gliscor = New sniper!
Possibly the next set will be called "Awesome Discoveries" Lol.

I can't believe it!!!
The 2 LV X are insane & pure broken if you ask me. T2 100 & T2 70??
It's already good enough to KO any pokemon by T2 but we need an energy accelerator for Mewtwo LV X. If not, it will be kinda useless. As for Gligar LV X, I like it. It can work with other Snipers...

You mentioned that Phione might not be in GE. Could there be space for him in the Rares, after Palkia?
I second the notion that Mewtwo Lvl X and Gliscor Lvl. X are pretty darn cool. The former would fit in well in Gardy/Gallade deck (take that, Magmortar!), and the latter comboes with Blissey, Lucario, or Empoleon.

Phione's holo. He comes after Palkia alphabetically, so since he was confirmed not holo, he won't be in the set, unless he takes Zapdos's spot... assuming he ain't in either.

Well, since the regular already has 3 broken attacks, adding in Mewtwo Lv.x with a broken attack and sweet body just makes everything better. This thing will destroy G&G once and for all hopefully.
Gliscor is tight, though his attack and Power contridict. Better have a Gliscor that locks them in.

This is sweet, the trainers are awsome. This isnt that bad as what people thought it was going to be. I really wanted phione though, anyways, this isnt that bad. I hope to see more of this coming. BTW, why is mewtwo lv.x so broken? It shouldnt have been so broken. Anyways, thanks for the news WPM.

Don't forget that Mewtwo will probably NOT be able to use DRE. The level X's are treated as being the same stage as the pokemon they are on top of so he will still count as a basic meaning no DRE, Scramble, etc. The other limiting factor will be that you can only have a 3-1 or 2-2 line. Even with Night maintanace or TSD it's still a pain to keep the level X up and attacking all the time.

Ultimately it goes back to Japan’s DP5 getting delayed. The PUI could either have a similar delay in the international product or do what they have already done ... mix and match sets a bit. They could make DP into 6 international sets by moving some Japan DP4 cards into our DP5 and then splitting Japan’s DP5 into an international DP5 & DP6. There are advantages to doing the latter both business wise (steadier cash stream, more sales, etc.) and to the buyers (no long delays between sets). Needless to say there are disadvantages too, but I’m sure that they took these into consideration as well.
My guess is that one of the reasons that the eevolutions were put into the international DP5 is that they are hugely popular and playable to boot. Cressela, Darkrai, Dialga, & Palkia are the “face” of this set. The eevolutions are popular enough to be the “face” of the next set. Japan’s DP5 (our DP6) will feature Mewtwo and some other popular cards and those probably can’t be changed, so really the eevees are one of the few things that they really could have based our next (filler) set around.

I'm glad and all we get Blaziken and all but no PHIONE!
This list doesn't seem trustworthy to me though. It marks Porygon2 at #42 when the Pre-Release Card clearly states it is #49. Is the current list 100% real?

ok, besides the T2 100, mewtwo doesnt seem THAT broken to me, because with the exception of Firestarter/Holon's castform, it takes 2 turns to do 100 after the initial, which really makes it vulnerable. the Gliscor tho is EXTREMELY good IMO. its got a nice power, Poison/paralyze. and if the nromal gliscor doesnt suck, that means that its gonna be a beast, can u say anti-blissey? seriously, these 2 cards can completely shut down the metagame. look at what won cities, a good 50% or more were GG, and a good chunk were blissey too. o and BTW, a 120hp basic?? mewtwo better have some huge weakness, but 2 retreat makes it hard to recover after a Giga burn. wonder wut Gliscor's other attack is...
