so its ok if i use a jungle pikachu and a ex raichu card

 

[Po-Po-Pocchama]

Nope. Raichu has been modified. ALL your cards must be from those sets

Let me give you the full explanation.

In official tournaments, you have to use cards from the list bonsly1994 posted. Add the POP4 and 5 sets and you're set. You may use cards from older sets ONLY IF THEY HAVE BEEN REPRINTED IN ONE OF THE NEWER SETS.

For example, Pluspower is reprinted in Diamond/Pearl, so its legal again. Raichu, on the other hand, has not been reprinted.



Liga's or Leagues are different. They DO allow you to run every card available. You can always ask the League leader about which cards are reprinted and which ones are not.
