Spinda SV (and other bad rares)

[Ka$h Money]

yes I know 4 energy for 40 and nothing else? Arcanine G just tops that straight away and that card is pretty bad

 

[Frozendukie]

So many crappy SP that I get one and I wanna scream!

 

[deogenerate]

Let us not forget our NEO2 Houndour and Magnemite!

 

[Mr. Random]

What do you think about this? I mean, look at Hyper Beam.

 

[nabby101]

Wow, and these days some pokemon can do 50 damage for 1-2 energies!

 

[Juliacoolo]

Nothing new for PUSA:

PUSA knows that if it gives a bunch of good rares, people won't need to buy as much. We all know PUSA is grredy, so put the pieces together.

 

[ze_draeck]

Lickitung delta :/ You got to be kidding me. It saw alot of play. And Vibrava was a good option for Flygon EX.

 

[Mr. Random]

Not Exactly hard to find bad rares, huh?

I have one of these (or had, I'm not sure which).

 

[Professor Palutena]

I found a bunch, but I'm going to link to them.

Articuno SV
Camerupt G
Crawdaint G
Moltres SV
Sabelye G
Seaking SV
Spinda SV
Wailord SV
Zapdos SV
Bastiodon GL
Rampardos GL
Roserade GL
Drapion 4
Espeon 4
Heracross 4
Mamoswine GL
Mr. Mime 4
Yanmega 4

This is just from SV and RR. It now makes sense why the Elite 4 were so easy, just look at those guys. XD

 

[Hoax]

Devolution Spray and Lass from the Base Set. I have like 20 of each lol xD

 

[sceptileblade411]

i agree with spinda i got a jpn one that i pulled but i don't want an eng one

 

[Lucario_aura_wielder]

lass is a good rare play all your trainers then get rid of your oppenent`s

 

[ShineVini]

Do you guys remember the times of Emerald and that lame Relicanth? THAT was a bad rare.

 

[drtomoe123]

Devolution Spray and Lass from the Base Set. I have like 20 of each lol xD

Did you ever play Lass with Cleffa? The combo was devastating!

Now, Pokemon Center and Item Finder were nice...but it really sucked pulling those as your rares. Same goes with Special Darkness and Metal Energies before the basics were out...when else do you pray that your rare is an energy?

 

[Frozendukie]

Umm if you look above the metagross was rly good back then lol. It was actually an energy accel card....1 of like4 ever made back then xD jk

 

[YourP1MP]

I don't understand why Spinda is a bad rare. Since when is a (free) energy removal a bad card. Plus it forces your opponent to unown g their active and then you suprisingly pull out your damage counter snipers!

 

[ericmeckley]

Spinda isn't so bad at all. Slap a multi energy on him and that can be very disruptive. It also is a viable starter for any non SP Garchomp SV decks.

 

[DNA]

All you really do with Spinda SV is plop a Rainbow Energy and just discard energies with him. (Making him go well with Garchomp, yes.)
Realistically, there will always be one or two bad rares in the set. Granted, SV declined greatly in quality from RR (which was sorta bad to begin with, save for a few things), but there is always a good and effective way to use the 'bad' rares. In Spinda's case, I just named it.

 

[Norman Black]

Spinda isn't as bad as Arcanine SV.

You can't disagree.

 

[DNA]

...That's even worse than Drifblim SV. I'm shocked.
No, I can't disagree. It isn't possible.
