Pokemon League Season News

BTS matches their usual promo design of promos being metagame important cards _they no longer sell_. If it's on the currently-printed list they will not put out a promo for it.

Note that this does mean Pokemon Collector is now fair game, as the print run for HGSS ended a while ago. BTS however is almost a guarantee. I suspect Collector will show up next year, along with Seeker, and possibly Twins.
 
What if promo green isn't Snivy? What if it's just a promo grass energy? Not seriously thinking this -just what if, submitted for your approval.

Was collector a rarer card or is it just being out of print all together that makes it difficult to get? I got my hands on a lot of these cards when they came began coming out. It looks like I can go back to trading supporters at my league this week since they'll be a hot item.
 
they're kinda rare. A little harder to come by than double colorless energy. It's "rare" because some people hoard them to sell at their peak. Because the card is really, really good. And the people that don't hoard them, use them. I say you should hold onto 8, so you have enough for 2, maybe 3 decks. Collector is better than: dual ball, great ball, pokeball, stantler, quick ball, and dusk ball. It's 50/50 compared to dragonaire, but then again it's an attack, so collector is still better

I have received word that the patches did not arrive on schedule and Snivy orders will be delayed as a result. The patches should arrive in the next day or so and all orders will be shipped the moment they arrive.
This should explain why you may not have the new supplies yet.
 
I didn't have mine last week. I have league both tomorrow and Sunday. If I get them in on one of those dates, I will let you know.~Mark
 
I ordered mine and I'm like..Argh XD thankfully my players are kids so I'm still rationing out houndoom cards just to keep them happy lol
 
I've begun crediting my players since the new season has begun. So I'll have a bunch of players who get like two copies of BTS when I actually get the stuff since they've played so many matches :/

I've been doing the same thing. I hope we actually get the supplies before we have to start ordering for the next season.
 
Long story short, this delay has been due to a perfect storm of issues involving everything from manufacturing delays (the initial issue) to too much product needing to go out the door at the same time, and a shipping freeze due to a complete inventorying of the warehouse which ending up being scheduled just as we were getting our supplies in.
I had to choose between shipping international league materials and shipping domestic league materials before I left town late last week, and I chose to ship international orders first so that the players globally would receive their materials at about the same time.

Domestic league orders are being shipped today and tomorrow and should start arriving before the end of the week. We understand the kind of pressure this has put on you as players are demanding information, and we appreciate everything you are doing to keep their minds at ease and assure them that the materials will arrive.
Just to keep everyone informed.
 
I have submitted my order for Tepig (before getting Snivy I might add :/ )

The promos for Tepig Season are "Red Starter" and Copycat.
 
I did my ordering just the other day also. I was not too happy when I went to my league location today since I was in the area. Only the BTS showed up. I didn't get the Snivy Promo, scorecards, or the poster.:smashcomp
 
what is up with pokémon's shipping department?? First they switched to medals instead off trophies because they're easier to ship.. Yet they weren't on site for states or regionals. Super long delay on the league supplies, and the 2 BR's this weekend in so cal, had no prizes. The TO's had to provide the boosters themselves and will mail out the victory medals once they're in. Anyone else go to a BR that didn't have the prizes available?

We got the complete opposite. Only Snivy, the scorecards/poster/patches showed up. :F At least BTS is playable...ARGH

dmaster out.
 
I'm going to suggest using the support portal. That's what I'm doing now.
 
I read on the Forums that they're shipping the BTS that weren't given out because of some error. It seems this isn't an uncommon occurrence.

dmaster out.
