ooo, now THAT is a fun attack. Can be used with that Stadium to put whatever you want on top.

 

[Yaginku]

This is a really fun line. The Basic has a relatively useful attack in a slower game. And for the Slowking's attack, there's a bunch of Stage 2s with impressive but prohibitively costed attacks. People are going to make fun decks on this.

 

[MarlinRimes]

I wish we could get another attack like the slowbro from unbroken bonds

 

[Nyora]

reprint yveltal or ur gay

 

[Clekx]

Zorobox part 2

 

[Hella_TCG]

like it's unique but that's it, card sucks unless it's backed up with more consistent support

 

[Gother]

This Slowking is broken.

Pair it with Kyurem for 330 damage

Tri-Frost トライフロスト

Discard all Energy from this Pokémon. This attack does 110 damage to 3 of your opponent's Pokémon. (Don't apply Weakness and Resistance for Benched Pokémon.)

With Night Time Stretcher this is awesome

[Kangaflora]

Interesting and a nice and powerful Slowking. It may not be a Water type, but the powerful attacks on this Slowking has won me over.

You could even say it's an... *glasses* inspirational challenge.

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

 

[Marcia Demme]

Reminds me of one of my top favorite cards from Unified Minds - Alolan Marowak - whose first attack did this:

"Discard the top card of your opponent's deck. If the card you discarded is a Pokémon, this attack does damage equal to that Pokémon's HP to your opponent's Active Pokémon."

I'm very excited to play this Slowbro! So many fun things you can do with it. Especially since we have cards that help it such as Ciphermaniac and the Night Academy stadium card. It's better than Marowak was in my opinion.

 

[bwyattvirtue13]

So is this our big Friday reveal? I hope more is coming today.

 

[SnowSoul]

Alright everyone, it’s Ciphermaniac time

 

[BabyShaq]

Loll imagine this with the new kyurem

 

[Bewear The TERRIBLE]

A way better replacement for transformation zoroark, since it gets to use any stage pokemon's attacks. Except, zoraoark got to transform into an ex I guess.

Eh, not really, since a big appeal of Zoroark is hitting for weakness. This can only hit for Psychic weakness, which isn't that great.

Still a cool and fun card design, though.
