I've noticed a lot of talk about the format change, but it only seems like people will be missing things like Claydol, Unown G, and googleeane's Research. But I've noticed nobody has taken the liberty to talk about cards being rotated like Torterra X, Empoleon X, and other cards such as these. So what cards will you miss? Why these specific cards?

Empoleon X:
One of the greatest snipers in the DP format is going away, what a shame. This card won worlds, and at one point in time, was one of the best cards in the format.

So, what cards will you miss?
 
Wow. Gardevoir SW. A good-looking card with a good attack and an even better Poke-Power. I would use Gardy and when I was fully set up, I had nothing left to do but to just hit with 60 over and over again. I think I'll miss Infernape from DP too. Being able to Rare Candy a Chimchar, add a Double Rainbow and do a quick 80 (two formats ago) was awesome. Loved that card.
 
Obligatory Claydol mention.

Gardevoir SW. Gardevoir is my favorite Pokemon, and I'll miss it. Oh well, it had its time in the limelight.
Night Maintenance is another interesting one. I find Palmer to be adequate but still...
 
honchkrow X (good sniper to add to my honchkrow SV deck), weavile SW (always fun to make "dark" rogues), all the wormadam of SW (for mothim deck), skiploom SW (for jumpluff), unown K (for flylock), mr. mime MT (I just like this card).

Yeah. I liked this card. I wasn't playing competitively back then, but I like the card for it's misprint. And, it's a good sniper. Other cards I'll miss are:

Moonlight Stadium
Gardevoir (Great artwork, attack, and Power. There is a Grumpig in CATS with the same attack effect...)
Gardevoir Lv.X (First Lv.X I pulled in a pack)
 
Man Weavile SW, its great to do cool interesting ideas with, also Wigglytuff GE and Furret SW (Man this card is cool, I've never used it but still) Edit: Also Trapinch SW
 
Alakazam MT, Mr.Mime MT, Honchkrow Lv.X, Torterra Lv.X and most of all PLOX cards. Plox has lived on in the format for about 3 years and it is finally going to die... It still has a chance to shine at Worlds, but I'm still going to miss it. :(
 
I say goodbye to plox, I say goodbye to Infernape, Gardevoir and Gardevoir X, but out of all the cards that are going away, porbably my favorite of them all has to be good ol Speed Stadium. I don't care how much it sucks, that was possibly the most fun card ever. Getting lucky with 30 coin flips. Funnest thing ever. I will always miss you Speed Stadium

Porygon-Z was so fun with Lake Bound.
And the Garchomp from MT was kinda cool too.

That was a really fun deck to play. You could use a whole bunch of Energy and your deck sparkled if you had holo ones!

I'm gonna miss Togekiss GE too...he had great artwork and the Poke-Power made many drool. He was great in my Magmortar deck.
 
Definently Garchomp from MT....had a whole 'dragon' deck built around him. Ho-oh from SW will also be missed in that deck for the same reason.

May sound weird, but Dewgong from MT was a good one for me.

Sceptile from GE will be missed from my grass deck...and just when we got a new energy transferer (ie Meganium Prime, yea I'm kinda old school, deal with it :) )

Darkrai #4 and Darkrai Lv X will be missed from my dark deck.

At least we have another year with Energy Absoprtion Mewtwo...Too bad about Mesprit MT, my free retreater.
