Machamp's Take-out attack kills any non-Evolved Pokemon, AFAIK.

Guess this throws 'legendaries are one-of-a-kind' out of the window. Unless they tell us the Latios Takuto uses is the same one from the movie >_> Maybe he has a Groudon, or Dialga, or even Arceus. There goes the fiction.

I'm not so sure if this is a matter of opinion rather than simply right and wrong? Rogue, which means one who goes against authority / the norm.

Most importantly Combee is dispensable, similar to Jumpluff. It gets killed, then you can rather effortlessly bring out another one. Landmin X is only necessary for longer games, otherwise there's no reason why you can't set up a Stage 1 by T1 or T2 latest and dealing 90 every turn.

I'll be rogue and running Steelix Prime, the rotation really hurt me though. With Steelix/Blissey/Weavile/Claydol, I've beaten almost all the current metagame: Jumpluff, Luxchomp, Gengar, Sablelock, Gyarados and most other tanks. I only auto-lose against BlazeRays which aren't that common...

EX era had the most balanced gameplay IMO. Lv. X era is intuitive and strategic but had some broken cards that spoilt the fun (SP domination still going) Prime era sounds like it's gonna be fast paced but rather plain and boring.

Metagross is one of the best designs IMO. Rhyperior, cause it looks nothing like Rhydon. Doofy, fat and immobile apperance with a completely different colour scheme. Don't like most of the humanoid Pokemon like Hitmonchan. Born wearing boxers and boxing gloves, really? It's not a bad idea (a...

Any of the not so popular Pokemon. I'm tired of the same few Pokemon getting the spotlight of each set (starter pokemon, pseudo-legendaries). How about Marowak? Venomoth? Tentacruel? Only stating some examples from 1st Gen, cause I'm not so familiar with the later generations.

Good thread is good. Hopefully these cards get printed in English, looks like a couple I'm already interested in.

In 2005 I retired from Pokemon because my whole deck got rotated out, and in 2006, organized play in Singapore collapsed entirely. 4 years later, Pokemon TCG is back, and so am I, starting entirely from scratch and having a ton of fun, except when facing a SP deck. Don't be sad that your...

Worse rotation ever. The EX era was by far the best IMO, there's a reason it lasted 15 sets. It was just the right speed, and plenty of diversity. This, however, is just plain messed up. SP engine is so overpowered it's not even funny. If not for my love of the game, I wouldn't have even...
