Pikachu, Nidoking, Omanyte Illustration Rares and Wigglytuff ex from “Pokemon Card 151!”

[Water Pokémon Master]

The first Illustration Rares have just been revealed from Pokemon Card 151! Their card numbering means only some Pokemon will receive one. For example, Pikachu is card #173 and Nidoking is #174. This means Raichu through Nidorino won’t get an Illustrator Rare. Some fans were hoping each Kanto Pokemon would get one.

The Wigglytuff ex line was also revealed. Thanks goes to JustInBasil for the translations!
Jigglypuff – Colorless – HP70
Basic Pokemon

Oinkologne is still almost certainly better. I mean, it's already tanking hits, but with much more efficient attacks.

All of them are 10/train

That't not necc true, in Paldea Evolved we are getting the Wiggily who ramps Therapy Energy from hand onto Pokemon and seeing as it's in the same line it would make a lot of sense. It probably has a higher ceiling of potential then Oinkers with more consistent ways to ramp the damage and additional bulk. Oinkers isn't like, good enough to be a focus of a deck but I think Wiggily has more potential in damage + HP + consistent damage w/ Cheren to actually justify it. Probably a tough sell though if Chein Pao and Ting-Lu are popular though.

Okay so rigid band and V guard? Only sad thing is that attack doing poor dmg even when u used supporter

 

[Gethbert]

Ok, It not good BUT rigid band plus V-Guard plus Wigglytuff From Pladea Evolved And Judge/Lono, Pa... yeah what stadium do we lock? Collapsed?

I doubt Ting Lu is problem because he can’t ohko Wigglytuff ex and can’t shut down its ability. also Wigglytuff ex will use Dunsparce

They should've made the entire set as Illustrator Rare.

Omanyte getting a special card makes me really happy since it is maybe my favorite Pokémon and I know I might be a bit alone with this one!

 

[N's Rhyperior]

Jigglypuff/Wiggytuff ex - this is the other one I am most excited about. Forget Oinkologne, it cannot even OHKO a Basic ex. 3/4

 

[Orkymandias]

I love that Pikachu!

 

[fleshrum]

jiggly is a pretty good line. Shame it doesn't have a modernized Do The Wave, that'd be sweet.

"Am I a joke to you?"

 

[CeladonCityGym]

I hate the faces of the people in that Pikachu AR. They look really derpy.

Well yeah, this was what I was hoping for... I mean come on, it's the first time all 151 were coming together in a set.

 

[Raigetsu]

It's fine, Raichu just got an Illustration rare so i'm not as upset by the news.

 

[Shinycardboardfan]

The people in the Pikachu alt look kinds goofy not gonna lie.

 

[Platinum Espresso]

The artstyle of the Pikachu one looks familiar. Is it the same artist behind Pokémon cafe mix?
