My SWSH unpopular opinions:
-Inteleon is a really good design.
-Rillaboom is just a gorilla version of chesnaught
-Boltund's colour scheme is absolutely terrible
-Galarian Stunfisk is a massive improvement on Unovian Stunfisk and one of the best regional forms
-Grimmsnarl is a lazy design...
I think this will be an attacker in the new Naganadel decks. Easy to just tech in a dark energy or two and beast ring. Might need to play an energy spinner as more decks get way to skip beast ring turns. This thing isna complete tank with great potion and gluttony. Problem is you are already...
Literally no one:
Pokemon: Let's put mustaches on our classic beloved pokemon, give a pokemon a Hangry mode, make one of your rivals look like a grandma, AnD MakE THe EvIL TEam YelL!!!
Me: (Happiness noises)
(Yes I am referring to Alolan Golem in the second line)
I'll skip cards that I've already reviewed or cards I think are not competitively viable.
The new Sneasel I think is now the optimal Sneasel in dark box. Agility can stall if you get a slow start.
Wishiwashi is a wall. 180hp and an ability that shuffles it away makes that clear. Stall will be...
Gallade is interesting. Sucks that Dce will be gone though. There is Tae but that's kinda chunky. Being both Psychic and Fighting opens you up to so much support. (Treasure, Diancie Prism, Dojo, Malamar, in standard) (Dimension Valley, Strong energy, Korrina and more in expanded!) 120 damage is...
Pikachu Gx is just weak. Very few decks will struggle to hit 160 every turn. Agility is annoying but we have better agility options than a 160 hp GX. Will exists but using your supporter for turn is really bad considering you are only stalling 1 turn with 20 damage. E power won't help 20 damage...
Xatu is pretty much a reprint of doublade. Doublade was a niche rogue deck. Xatu is in a format where tag team rule and will exists. Xatu should be better but not by a lot considering Will is your supporter for turn.
Will seems fine. Coin flip decks will be more and less consistent. It's...
I live in the land of Bibarels and Sawsbuck commonly refered to as Canada.
I did get the UNB patches without crossing a border, Not sure outside of Canada and US though. From what I hear they aren't making any this time. :(
Vileplume is a stage 2 that is weak to fire. Nuff said. This just does not hit numbers at all. It's only slightly annoying.
Empoleon is a basic wall. Seems bad but may I remind you of upr Empoleon. 20 x all pokemon ring a bell? They could make a really annoying rogue deck. But I'm more...
