Japan's SM6+ Set, 'Dragon Storm,' Plus 'Champion Road' Mini-Set!

Quagsire looks to be good in those decks that run aqua patch and to itself as a card. Palkia GX is a good partner for it. But, still I don't think that will be a good competitive deck (well not tier I or II at least).

1.) Yeah okay. But Reshiram does hit 110 by its own and does instaburn (Entei GX's was 100 and insta burn for 2 fire and a colorless). Add the choice band and Infernape's ability and by that, it hits for 200 damage. I think it's a solid Number, wouldn't you agree?
2.) Vikabulu is a thing and it's pretty much the same base. Basic pokémon as a main attacker, have a stage 2 as bench-sitter.
3.) Duh.

200 isn't a solid number, you're not 1-shotting Zoroarks
 
I believe "Wash Out" was last seen on Blastoise from Unleashed.

It is actually a fairly strong card in combination with Blastoise BCR with Deluge and Promo Shuckle in the Legacy format.

If we see another Quagsire printed with some kind of Rain Dance, and another card with a similar Ability to Shuckle, it could be pretty good.

Anyone else noticed that Dragonite's energies are [L] and [W] instead of [L] and [G]?

I hate it. I love my Dragonite EX deck and wanted to put Dragonite GX in it...this ruined it. *sigh*
Anyways, what's the point of poison anymore? (pun intended) I'm feeling the burn!
EDIT: I think the sole reason behind Dragonite GX having [L] and [W] energy is to remove its synergy with Vikavolt. Which I don't get because we already have VikaBulu and VikaNite would come nowhere close to that power, mainly because of clunkiness and retreating every turn is a pain, not to mention Gardy is still kind of a threat. VikaBulu just makes more sense. On another note, did I read somewhere that a Prism Star card came out that let you inst-win if you had three Dragonite GXes out? Was that a dream?

I think that its based around 1 of 3 reasons
1. If based on coloring, the wings are a teal color, so it could go between green and blue(also dratini and dragonair are blue).
2. Dragonite's name in Japanese is Kairyu, and the kanji for "kai" CAN be translated as ocean/sea, connecting it to water more.
3. Could be due to the fact that dratinis have only ever been obtainable by fishing.

About the Prism star card, you did not dream that you read that!....But it was just a joke made by someone before the actual text was revealed. Sorry, better luck next time!
 
This seems interesting. Could be a good draw Supporter for Volcanion/Ho-Oh decks: If your bench is filled with Tapu Lele and 4 [R] Pokemon and you have another [R] Pokémon active, you'd draw 10 cards!
 
What an unbelievably good card for fire decks. Could be drawing 12 cards, which I think would put it as the best draw supporter in PTCG history not requiring your opponents help (ie Colress and Sky field).
I am a little surprised this is not a prism star card.

Yay for more fire decks...and better type advantages for my water decks.

yes some go a little back but last few weeks had better cards then this
 
I was hoping this would be connected more to fire energy acceleration for standard, but this is pretty nice! A deck with lots of hand reducing items and fire pokemon would benefit from this quite nicely.
 
  • Blaine's Explosive Battle - can be good but it can be bad in some situations. The good side is... Fire Decks like Ho-oh may benefit from this because it needs draw power other than Cynthia post-rotation. (Don't push Incineroar too hard because 1. It doesn't do 120 2. It doesn't won tournaments yet) The bad side is the requirement of being the only card in hand since the fact that we don't have some utility to discard cards in hand aside from Ultra Ball (Trade lets you increase hand size) is a problem but we can't have everything. 4 Geodudes
 
Tbh its pretty bad imo, if you look at it sycamore is still the better option , this card is useless in any situation other than an empty hand. And if you have a lele/starmie/oranguru or not a full bench you will only draw 10-8 or less even. Sycamore gets you a guaranteed 7 with an empty hand, but also with any other hand. So yeah, this wont see play probably
