SM9 'Tag Volt,' Japan's December Set!

[The PokeMan 11]

Why does Brock look soooo young?

 

[Dusk Form Lycanroc]

Why does Brock look soooo young?

Yeah, i know, maybe he drank some sort of youth potion

 

[Ashblaze]

BROCK’S POWER LEVEL IS OVER 9000!!!!!!

 

[TincanRiolu]

Thank you Kanye, very cool

Erika's Hospitality is far better than Hau, with the potential to pull 6 cards in Standard and even more in Expanded.

Its not much better than lass, at the most you maybe able to draw 1-3 cards, most opponnents are conservative enough to not put a ton of pokemon at once, reducing the effectiveness. better of using copycat, cynthia, or some other draw rather than this. Some types of decks this is useful against is zoroarks.

They could be conservative, but good luck trying to do that without hurting your own playing, and a lot of decks do need a full or near full bench to function like aforementioned Zoroark or Malamar or decks with the new LT Naganadel.

Brock's Grit reprint! Plus new arts of Aqua Patch, Choice Band, Field Blower, Volkner.

Ooh this set looks nice for saving some cards from rotation, for sure.

Sabrina's Suggestion looks interesting. If I'm not mistaken, it's something like, "Look at your opponent's hand. Chose a supporter card you find there and use the effect of that card as the effect of this card."

its like smeargles effect, unfortunately its not like slyveons superior effect which will discard it.

 

[Volkner123]

Better or worse art from evolutions?

I think they both look good.

 

[Volkner123]

I actually really like the new regular art better than all the others! I'll be fishing for them reverse rares~

Agreed the normal art for Brock's grit is pretty nice.

 

[KeoKeo]

ME: that art is epic.

Hey look another supporter that would only truly be useful with vs seeker in the format

It was legal with vs seeker for nearly a year

 

[AuraJackle]

It was legal with vs seeker for nearly a year

Yes and was more usable during that time which is why it was in bulu and mega gardevoir decks. But now its early game ultra ball fodder

 

[Cybno]

1) We talking from much deference cards (Good ability one price attacker yes is stage 2 i know)
2)if you run good (Ninetails can help to get the rare candy) can trade much better than Necrozma (with 3 energy can hit 210(ultra malamar malamar ninetails and nidoqueen). And even if we have only 3 Necrozma have only 190 HP so i can OHKO necrozma Anyway you give 2 give 1 and i am not ever descard energy to attack,ok iam stage 2 you are basic but i can take extra pokemon every turn!

Ok i need many evolution line but you need extra metal energy and 2 malamar on beanch to OHKO me!

Who wins?

But I wasn't talking about regular Necrozma at all...? I'd still argue that Ultra Necrozma is better due to multipliers. Ultra Necrozma hits better numbers, for less and with more HP. It's 100% better than Necrozma and Latias and Latios, who cares about the Metal? If you're that desperate then use Rainbow Brush.

 

[Spring Sun Warrior]

Does anyone else think Brock looks like he’s six in this art?

i thought the same he looks young. his arms look thin, he looks short and the shirt is reminisent of what ive seen young boys wear in my mangaz/animus :/

 

[Spring Sun Warrior]

Why does Brock look soooo young?

i think its because Pokémon is aimed at children in japan so they probly decided that he should look younger so kids could identify and look up to or be impressed by him more. "look brocks so cool hes like me! and has a gym! i wanna be like that! (so i'll beg my mom to buy me more Pokémon stuff)" and so on etc

 

[Spring Sun Warrior]

Very cute and useful card
those eyes tho...shes got a look in em, mhmm i do declare this perty lil thang to be a bit mischeivious

 

[Blinkehyo]

dude's straight up going super saiyan, find out what happens next in the next expansion of pokemonTCG

He'll go even further beyond

 

[GamePhoenix]

Beedrill/Shedninja is the new meta

 

[JimiCobain27]

In the wise words of my 6 year old niece when she first watched Pokemon: "Why doesn't the brown boy have any eyes?"
