    TCG Fakes Dumb Criminal's Text-Based Fakes (Requests: Open)

    In the spirit of XY: Evolutions, I've decided to up this a little bit with some Owner's Pokemon and some throwbacks to the Gen 1 era of the TCG. Secret Mission Plans is exactly like Psychic's Third Eye, because it has the same effect as the original Secret Mission. The reason I named it...

    TCG Fakes Rainyman123's Text-Based Fakes: Phantom Realms (Finished)!

    With Ascension, you should add "Shuffle your deck afterward." right after "(This counts as evolving this Pokemon.") Take Phantump for example: Anyways, Dedenne has an attack for [L][L] that does 90. That's pretty OP for a Dedenne. You might want to change it to [L][L][L] for 60, because...

    News 20th Anniversary Set in September + Surfing Pikachu and M Slowbro-EX!

    I find Pidgeot-EX's artwork to be better than M Pidgeot-EX. Anyone else? Brock's FA is also pretty good.

    News Rockruff Evolution and Ultra Beasts Shown in CoroCoro!

    They both look like insects. Steroid junkie cockroach and albino anorexic grasshopper. Maybe they come from an alternate universe where mammals were wiped out during the Cretaceous period and...steroid junkie cockroach is God himself. Despite my humbling sarcasm, I actually like these Pokegods...

    News 20th Anniversary Set in September + Surfing Pikachu and M Slowbro-EX!

    Same artwork, completely different cards. Just like Dewgong! This is like a more powerful version of Nightly Garbage Run (Team Rocket expansion) and Super Rod, but I don't really like the way XY12 has come out so far. They already have this and Misty's Determination, so I'm not sure if they'll...

    Discussion Raichu Circle Circuit Viable Still?

    This. Also, M Rayquaza is supposed to be Tier 1, and the fact that Raichu can hit for weakness (barring Clear Humming Altaria, which can evolve t1 due to its Ancient Trait) means that it'll be a pretty good asset, and with 5 Pokemon it can kill Altaria (without weakness), and needs only 3 with...

    Blog Iron Crushing the Format: An In-Depth Mega Scizor Review

    I'm surprised by not including Magearna. Magearna fits like a glove in this deck and can help you run less Pokemon Ranger or zero at all, though I wouldn't consider it if you're running Garbodor. Registeel (AOR 51) could also be a good alternative attacker for EX hate as you can discard any kind...

    Discussion Most Dissapointing TCG Set

    Alright, time for some good conversation about Gen 1! I should have clarified what I meant about the metagame; I considered Base Set - Gym Challenge to be the metagame, as I haven't really heard anything about the Gym expansions from you, though you mentioned Team Rocket. The reason I mention...

    Discussion Most Dissapointing TCG Set

    Fossil for sure. Fossil is the smallest main expansion set with 62 cards (Jungle had 64). While Jungle had only one Trainer (Poke Ball), it wasn't a complete waste. There were cards like Scyther (top tier as hell), Clefable, Mr. Mime and Wigglytuff. Clefable could use one of your opponent's...

    Help V-create alternative for 20th Anniversary Victini Event?

    Victini can learn Wild Charge by TM93, but I doubt that you would want to go that way due to your issue with Flare Blitz. Off of 100 Base Speed and a Scarf it hits pretty hard, and with 100 Base Attack, Adamant nature and some strong moves it should hit pretty hard. Why would you want to use...

    Standard Psychic Poison Rats

    About Bent Spoon, the Rattata in the upcoming XY12 set has an ability that when played from the Bench discards a Pokemon Tool from the opponent's Active Pokemon. It's really convenient, actually, and has 10 more HP than Rattata from Breakpoint. I'd ditch the BKP Rattatas the second they become...

    Collecting 18 Packs in Booster Box?

    I'm planning on ordering this off of Potomac Distribution and have a question regarding it. It's a Spanish-language version of the HeartGold and SoulSilver base set, but it says only 18 packs. I know Booster Boxes have had 36 packs in them for a while (although I've never opened one), but are...

    TCG Fakes Dumb Criminal's Text-Based Fakes (Requests: Open)

    I can probably argue now that the damage is pretty obscene, but my thought process revolved around it being used by Raichu more than Pikachu. Pichu Power Bond Smoochum Power Bond

    TCG Fakes Dumb Criminal's Text-Based Fakes (Requests: Open)

    Imagine using Staravia on something like Giratina. Sure, it wouldn't do much, but the thought process behind it is that Staravia can strike things that are benched. If anything like DCE or DDE is on the field, Staravia can render it useless and force them to burn more resources. Pichu Pichu...

    TCG Fakes Dumb Criminal's Text-Based Fakes (Requests: Open)

    Ah, while I was aware of moves having the same effects across the newer expansions, I didn't know Peck Off was taken :x I'll use the TCG Database from now on for that. Cherry Picking was hard to word, and I had to consult the FA Arceus promo for help on this one. If you have any further...

    Peck Off was a very unique card to word. If you have any suggestion to improve it, I'm all ears. :)

    TCG Fakes Dumb Criminal's Text-Based Fakes (Requests: Open)

    Ah, wording is always hard to figure out. I used the Baby cards from Neo as the basis for the wording, and I'll fix it up, but as per your request: Sort of resembles promo Jirachi, but I feel it's a good attack because Starly are known to eat Cherubi, so I figured why not Staravia? Plus, bird...

    News 20th Anniversary Set in September + Surfing Pikachu and M Slowbro-EX!

    Many thoughts come to mind: inb4 Hitmonchan gets a BREAK and Haymaker (somehow) becomes playable again Charizard!!!! Everyone's favorite!!!!! Doubled attack power but still a deck that might see some play at locals unless Blacksmith becomes a thing again. (oh dear.) I've been waiting for a card...

    TCG Fakes Dumb Criminal's Text-Based Fakes (Requests: Open)

    I do text-based fakes, I love the old-school cards from Base to Neo (Ecard is forgettable imo, and the cards look really tacky to me with the barcode). I want to bring back the vibe from those eras while using cards from this current era. Once I get motivated, I might decide to make cards out of...

    Articuno EX/Garbador

    Drop the HTLs and Virbanks. Add three Poke Comms or whatever you prefer as your Pokemon engine, and two Water Energies. Best of luck at States! Please include reasons for your suggestions. ~alex
