the wise words speak.
Double Full Heal has to be the most unused , terrible trainer in the world.
No one plays it , not even new players. So what's the point of it? Take up one space in a set , no thanks.
3-4+4 ssu says it should be pretty likely.Lou Cypher said:Foxtrot said:Umm...new dialgia=150 every turn for 0 energy? Delcatty is just a cute little bonus.
That is, as long as you can play that Dialga down every turn.
Every card? Theres been one holo trainer in how many sets? Do you know what the card does, because the way you're speaking about it, you probably don't. It let you put a basic pokemon down from your hand and bring it active. Wait a second....I can play the pokemon and then play switch and DO THE EXACT SAME THING. As for the other card, wiggly is pretty much the only one that comes to mind off the bat, and that deck ran more then enough basics. Its a waste of card and costs you another card in a game that requires as much speed as nessicary. I'd take the extra c.s./i.f./oak/bill/whatever over that if I was to run wiggly. Problem with talkin about porygon now...it does evo. And unless we're talkin about metagame at the time (in which case rocket's persian ex takes the cake), porygon is definately more playable than any of the cards I've listed.vilebaseball said:Foxtrot said:Oh silly man, how wrong you are. Surge is a waste of card and didn't deserve to be a holo. If your going to sit here and say it was playable in ANY deck, I'll just laugh at you. The other card is basically GOW folder (ooops, I gust it back to the bench and now you discard it). Waste of a trainer. Problem with porygon is that it CAN evolve (as does carp). If we're talking about straight pokemon with all the factors included (such as evolution, etc.), then carp and porygon both place higher than Blaine's Kangaskhan. Let's face it, fliping to do 10 damage won't win you many matches.vilebaseball said:Zyflair said:Unfortunately, no. It at least does something.PokeKid Brandon said:Dialga lv.x. Beacuse it is bad. <Is that a good enough reason?
Hmm... you know many sets by the back of your hand and you think of this? It at least can stall in the first few turns (resistance).vilebaseball said:Base Set Porygon. It's nice in theory, but isn't worth the prize lost from 30 damage.
It's not the worst. Take Magikarp.Ampha-pwn77 said:I would Have to say the Darkrai with Reach Over from GE gets my pick.. there are so many other pokemon that get you more than 1 Measly energy, and who needs 100 Damage against 1 Card out of the 150 or so that are being played right now? And 3 Energy for that kind of attack? BAD.
Hmm...Drigo Toes said:Magikarp Delta Species...
30 HP... 10 for 1 Metal Energy... when only there were special energys...
Eh...Celebi23 said:Is this not obvious? Mysterious Fossil from Base Set. 10 HP, no attacks, the new ruling lets them take a prize upon KO, no Bodies or Powers, no Trainers on the 1st turn, playing it in the deck increases the chances of a T1 donk, no Resistance, so anything that can do 10 damage or put 1 damage counter on the defending Pokemon can OHKO it. And it can't retreat. No matter what you guys say, this is the worst Pokemon.

Bad switch....

Longest text in history for an absolutely nothing effect. lol oh surge...how bad you truely are.
Correct. At least with the Magikarp everyone keeps bringing up evolution is a possibility. At least when playing in the modified format of the time, this card was never able to evolve, and never able to no damage. The first Porygon2 came with Neo Revelation (and it's pretty bad too). What's the point in stalling when a Jungle Kangaskhan or Base Chansey could have just as easily been used, and do a FAR better job at it. Bottom line, even energy search allows you to pick out the one energy you need. They serve a purpose. Porygon never got the player anywhere closer to a win. Every other card mentioned so far is a mode or a stepping stone to a win or at the very least, can do more than 0 damage.
Oh, and Celebi: The Mysterious Fossil is actually from the Fossil Set. Like Clefairy Doll (from the Base Set), when these cards were played, they did not count for a prize when KO'ed. The Aerodactyl it levels up to has quite the unique and annoying ability, and if I'm not mistaken, the new ruling only counts it as a basic Pokemon when put into play, meaning it wouldn't be your only choice on turn one.
And Foxtrot: I really hope you were kidding (particularly on the first one), because you couldn't be more wrong.
Every card is a holo nowadays, so that kind of status is really meaningless in the grand scheme. How is it any less playable than "Switch", especially if your opponent had a Fossil Hitmonlee (or any of the many cards that did bench damage at the time) lurking around? As for the other one, some cards of the time gave bonus damage for more cards on the bench. Why keep it in your hands when it can be helping (and from my understanding, still used) from the bench? As I explained, in the modified format at the time, Porygon was *NOT*, again, *NOT* able to evolve. Porygon doesn't even give you the chance to flip, and only offers 30HP to boot. If it was Porygon vs. Porygon, the game wouldn't end, ever. 10 > 0.
d master342 said:Energy Link SF is actually a very good trainer for moving Energies around. Not everyone can use RegiStark, and that engine is slower than this trainer anyway. Attaching all Energies from one damaged Pokemon to another one you have is really good, unlike Double Full Heal.
dmaster out.
