    “Greninja ex Ultra-Premium Collection” Releasing in November, Includes Metal Greninja ex Promo!

    Why would anyone get this over the terapagos one? Metal cards aren't even valuable, no one wants my zard and mew one. Also, these products keep getting worse. Mew lost the metal dice & sleeves, terapagos lost the metal card and this one lost packs and good promos. Also, cost per pack is kinda...

    Tera Flygon ex, Archaludon ex, and More from “Paradise Dragona” Revealed at Worlds!

    On the other stuff, that archaludon is really good. The gholdengho is an ok single prizer for gholdengo ex, it still needs energy accel tho, otherwise it is useless, maybe gholdengo/archaludon. Ace spec is ok. Surfer is w/e. The supporter searcher is huge tho, it seems to me we are not getting...

    Tera Flygon ex, Archaludon ex, and More from “Paradise Dragona” Revealed at Worlds!

    They suck. I can't think of many decks where the card would be relevant. Only like terapagos (which has a better energy accel engine bulit inalready anyway), everything else remotely playable already has built in energy accel. Stuff like blissey or arc piles are not better off with this. So i...

    “Paradise Dragona” TCG Set Officially Revealed Featuring Latias ex, Tera Alolan Exeggutor ex, and Dragon Pokemon!

    This is a literal post hoc fallacy, ergo a BS argument. Matter of fact is that looking at cards from the top is statistically better than looking at the bottom. Bring math as of why is better to look from bottom when iono is involved

    New “ex Battle Decks” for Tapu Koko ex and Iron Leaves ex in October!

    I don't think you do, actually. Casual gameplay in leagues is plagued by meta decks. Playing these unplayable de ka will net you just defeats. That is the very definition of unplayable. Unless of course you think casual is kitchen table withyour brother only😂😂😂😂😂

    New “ex Battle Decks” for Tapu Koko ex and Iron Leaves ex in October!

    Example 1 Exclusive Holo SIR (1x for thwackey) and non league cosmo holo versions of skateboard, pal pad and poffin (1x each). With this, you have a casually competitive deck that you can upgrade by buying a second copy and rounding up your staple line. Strategy is very simple, and deck has a...

    New “ex Battle Decks” for Tapu Koko ex and Iron Leaves ex in October!

    Local leagues aren't super competitive, and yet pretty much everyone has a meta deck in hand, if you play these, you are going to be stomped to death over and over. So this thing can't even do casual play. Again, pokemon has a really big issue with card prices and accesibility but the other way...

    “Paradise Dragona” TCG Set Officially Revealed Featuring Latias ex, Tera Alolan Exeggutor ex, and Dragon Pokemon!

    Is functionally the same when the deck is randomized. However, stuff like iono make the card much worse as the card isn't even reliably hitting cards you haven't seen in such scenario. Imagine getting iono'd and having no good monsters to grab (which is often). You have a dead card whereas...

    “Paradise Dragona” TCG Set Officially Revealed Featuring Latias ex, Tera Alolan Exeggutor ex, and Dragon Pokemon!

    None of these cards are competitively viable, not even Lisia which i have a hard time justifying over boss as the whole point of gusting is to kill whatever liability was benched, so Lisia is bad boss pretty much always. Latias is bad as it needs a very specific deck to be useful, if you are...

    New “ex Battle Decks” for Tapu Koko ex and Iron Leaves ex in October!

    This. They are better off buying a battle league deck. These level 1&2 decks have almost no demand due to how unplayable they are. The only reason they produce them is because "they sell", but that is because they force them on retailers and they are often sold at a loss (the loss is 100%...

    New “ex Battle Decks” for Tapu Koko ex and Iron Leaves ex in October!

    Have you ever played casually in leagues IRL? No one uses decks as bad as this one. Is mostly meta decks with players learning the ropes, but still good decks. Is not about being "advertised", is about being desirable, they are pretty unappealing and as a LGS they force you to stock on them.

    Ho-Oh, Azumarill, Tera Orb, Perfect Mixer & Precious Carrier ACE SPECs Revealed!

    Is drastically better than aroma. While it lasts, you can Lumi > Arven > cart + stone and grab a really solid set-up. In the case of aroma, it's much less desirable to do the above, as you usually need to arven > Poffin > stone anyway

    Ho-Oh, Azumarill, Tera Orb, Perfect Mixer & Precious Carrier ACE SPECs Revealed!

    Azumarril doesn't work well with garde (80+50 recoil doesn't work), it works well with terapagos and that's pretty cool. Ace specs are both really good.

    Full Art Briar from Stellar Miracle!

    This is wrong on so many levels. 1) You cannot take all 4 sometimes, you have to take 3, ruining the tempo. 2) Most decks end up with a 2 prizer up, anyway and the turn you use briar, you can't boss, leaving you with prime catcher as the most reliable option. Regardless, this mostly affects...

    Stellar Sylveon ex and Stellar Ceruledge ex Revealed, Several Cards Teased Including Tera Orb and Ho-Oh!

    They literally have a dedicated engine and sylveon's basic is colorless, the requirement it needs for a double rainbow patch. They also get an additional ace spec that reduces energy costs. Sure, they are combo decks, so they will brick more often than stuff like raging bolt, but they aren't...

    TPCi Reveals 2025 Season to Limit Worlds Invites, Only 125 TCG Masters for North America

    Is not even true. You need multiple decks at the same time because meta evolves every week, you can't get by with just 1 if you are taking the game seriously. So, while your assessment is true, my point is that in reality, is even worse.

    TPCi Reveals 2025 Season to Limit Worlds Invites, Only 125 TCG Masters for North America

    No it shouldn't. Because America has a bajillion events, so is easier to go to them. This change also rewards people with more time and money, not necessarily the best players.

    It’s the BDIF For a Reason — Advanced Tips For Playing Charizard ex

    This is an ignorant comment. Best players in pokemon don't do well every event. There is a few that tend to do better than others, and it shows, so is partially true what you claim, but is also partially false. There are a bunch of different names topping; the most consistent players this...
