hmm, I know it's very early to speculate this, but I think these will be the two trainers who have a sir card in Paradise Dragona, especially Lisia.

[LadyLuxury]

If Chien Pao is in this set, there's a good chance Wo Chien will be too.

 

[LadyLuxury]

The set description got updated to 18 exs total with 9 Stellar and 9 Normal.

 

[Kangaflora]

Eighteen ex's?! That is a lot of Pokémon ex cards, that's the highest number of Pokémon ex cards since they made a Triumphant return in the Scarlet and Violet Base Set!

 

[Kookaburra Kong]

The set description got updated to 18 exs total with 9 Stellar and 9 Normal.
View attachment 19740

This leaves us with 4 ACE SPEC cards, 4 Stellar ex, 2 regular ex, 20 Normal Alt Arts, 9 Special Alt Arts, and 4 Gold Cards (the 2 gold cards I do know about are Stellar Alolan Exeggutor and Stellar Pikachu based on patterns regarding gold cards in past sets).

Eighteen ex's?! That is a lot of Pokémon ex cards, that's the highest number of Pokémon ex cards since they made a Triumphant return in the Scarlet and Violet Base Set!

This isn't taking into account the 18 ex cards coming with Japanese decks releasing in December, which will likely be merged with Terastal Festival when launching them outside Japan.

We only know 3 of the regular exs

Latias, Archaludon and Flamigo

 

[Kookaburra Kong]

Latias, Archaludon and Flamigo

How do you know Flamigo's coming?

 

[dineinunes]

How do you know Flamigo's coming?

The same way we know that Pikachu and Alolan Exeggutor are likely to get gold cards, by looking at patterns from previous sets.

 

[dineinunes]

Main sets usually have 8 exs and subsets 6 exs, plus Sylveon and Ceruledge that gives us 16 exs. Since we expect 18 to be in it, they might have upped the number of exs in the subset (unlikely to be by more than one) and there should be gym promos included (since there are no other unnacounted exs) with Flamigo ex being the next in line.

 

[LittenFaffers]

Hopefully we will see a regular Hydrapple card in this set, as well as the regular versions of Gouging Fire and Iron Crown (if not released already) alongside a regular card for Terapagos. Then we will have a regular version of all 1025 Pokémon. It would also be nice to see a regular version of Eternatus; the closest we got to one was Radiant Eternatus.

I think I’m doing the same challenge as you. Collecting all the baby versions of 1025 Pokémon. 35 left for me! I’m so happy that they released the Alakazam and mantyke. I got the two versions with their number. But just when I got them for 20 bucks, NEW PNWS CAME OUT.

 

[LittenFaffers]

So apparently Eevee's ability is that it can evolve during its first turn in play (including the player's first turn) as long as it is in the Active spot.View attachment 19644

There is literally no reason for it to be banned.

 

[LittenFaffers]

There is literally no reason for it to be banned.

If it can evolve on its first turn, or can double evolve. Pokémon usually takes the path of banning

This card was developed to function this way. Why would they literally print the card with the ability to ban it? If it was too OP (which is not because there are limitations ) it would not have the ability to begin with. Pokémon rarely bans anything from the Standard format.
Show me cases when any card like this was banned and I'll believe you.
