    'Pokemon UNITE,' Strategic Team-Battle Game, Announced

    People had expectations of Gen 4 remakes, "Let's Go Johto," or more SwSh DLC. I knew it wouldn't be any of that. I mean, really, why would it be any of those? I had no expectations, yet my disappointment was so immense as soon as they mentioned Tencent. They've finally sunk their fangs into...

    Lucario V from 'V Starter Decks' Revealed, Hints of the Other Eight Pokemon V!

    Wow. I like how Mew V is weirdly better and worse than Mewtwo EX. It does 10 more damage per energy and somehow has 10 more HP. Yet requiring 2 Psychic instead of 2 Colorless (aka attaching a DCE) is wonkier. Plus, I'm not sure, even with the increased damage, if this is all that decent these...

    'World Down' and 'Legendary Heartbeat,' Japan's Summer Sets Introducing Amazing Rares!

    Watch, there will be a new Trainer that will allow you to attach an extra energy to Amazing Rares, a special "Double Rainbow" energy that can only be attached to Amazing Rares, or an Ability that allows energy acceleration to Amazing Rares. I don't actually expect this. I just think it would be...

    Galarian Slowbro Revealed, New 'Sword & Shield Expansion Pass' Trailer!

    I totally forgot about that! Thank you for the correction. :) I guess in my mind, it didn't make sense to have one and not the other, but they're just splitting it. Yeah, that's how I see this as a second/third version too. And that's also a good point about not showing everything yet. It just...

    Galarian Slowbro Revealed, New 'Sword & Shield Expansion Pass' Trailer!

    Yeeeaaahh... That's kind of what I was thinking. I was interested to see what else was in store when they first announced the pass, but this just looks like what we already knew, but with Pokedex entries. Not much else is new? Cram-o-matic sounds interesting, and I guess Max Soup can solve some...

    'Eruption Walker' Japan's Mini-Set for April!

    I mean, I guess we all knew it would happen eventually, but I wasn't expecting to see a Gardevoir V and VMAX this soon. Both are... kind of underwhelming, I think mostly because Zacian V exists. Hopefully this means they're a bit on the cheaper side this time. But my goodness, that artwork on...

    'League Battle Decks' Info Revealed, Replacing Battle Arena Decks!

    While the products themselves seem good, I just wish the packaging wasn't so "Biggerer is betterer!" I get that they want to actually show the three GX's, but how much space does the packaging really need for the rest of the contents? They've been doing this for years... Anyway. Trifle over...

    2020 Holiday Set Confirmed, Includes Missing Sun & Moon Cards!

    That's fun. Lot's of full art Supporters that I'd like to get! I had to do research into what the deal was with the alternate arts for Espeon & Deoxys GX and Umbreon & Darkrai GX since I didn't see them in this list. I swore I remembered them getting an English version, but I forgot they were...

    Japan's March Set: 'Rebellion Crash,' Plus Toxtricity V, Charizard VMAX, Grimmsnarl VMAX!

    Exactly. I had to read it a few times, increasingly realizing just how restricted this was. The only way Oranguru would work with this is if you used its Ability towards the end of your turn, then you draw Nugget at the start of your next turn. But that's also only viable in a world where cards...

    Even if you're willing to get a few at a time, just to eventually get there, 4 bricks = $10. And that's very unsatisfying. I swear that's how life works. For me, I tend to feel great, get myself a treat, then oops! Major unforeseen expense. That GBA isn't the most fancy, but I still love it. I...

    Man, I feel the same about the newer UCS Millennium Falcon, rather than forking over $800. But even just the exclusive pieces total around $100, last I checked. Oh, yeah! I wanted that so much when it was out. On a very similar note, I've been wanting a special edition GBA SP for... what, well...

    'Rebel Clash' is May's English Set, Synced Worldwide Releases All But Confirmed!

    I've legitimately never seen Copperajah's Gigantimax form until seeing it today on the ETB. I just couldn't help but stare at it in bewilderment.

    'Rebel Clash' is May's English Set, Synced Worldwide Releases All But Confirmed!

    Though clearly, the article states it's Copperajah on the ETB, as someone who hasn't played Sword or Shield and hasn't really taken too hard of a look at the new Pokemon and whatever forms they have, I found myself just staring at this image wondering, "What IS that? What am I looking at?" I...

    'Sword & Shield Figure Collection' Product Image, Details!

    Oh, how neat! I've been wanting promo cards like these to make their way outside of Japan. I'm actually looking forward to this.

    Well, they ARE pretty much the most impressive and intricate sets that Lego makes regularly. (I suppose aside from the Star Wars UCS sets.) So that's totally understandable. And yeah, not just from a completion standpoint, but also in value, those older ones would've been amazing to have. But I...

    It is, but my problem is that I always end up wanting something else more than the modular buildings, so I haven't gotten around to Downtown Diner yet. The Detective's Office is really nice too! My brother in law has it.

    Yeah, they're definitely fantastic! Full disclosure, though, I don't have one, myself. (Unless you consider Ninjago City and Ninjago City Docks to at least be along the same lines.) I'd like to get Downtown Diner, though.

    Creatures Reveals TCG's New Focus on Five Weaknesses, Dragon Likely Removed

    Oh, dude. Don't even get me started on those modular buildings! We'll get even more off topic. lol But seriously, they're so good. And totally agreed. Though not entirely by choice, I've put most of my hobbies to the back burner for now, and it's been (mostly) relaxing not worrying about...

    Creatures Reveals TCG's New Focus on Five Weaknesses, Dragon Likely Removed

    No, we're simply in disagreement on how we view these costs. I'm not going to claim I'm some expert on the industry, development and advertising costs, etc. But I'm willing to bet money that they earned MORE than enough money to cover paying for SwSh, additional development costs, and enough to...

    Creatures Reveals TCG's New Focus on Five Weaknesses, Dragon Likely Removed

    Yeah, it's definitely a possibility that this won't have a huge impact. Maybe. We'll see. Ha ha. Honestly, I hadn't considered the +10, 20, or 30 weaknesses. I took a hiatus from collecting cards in the late EX era, then returned and started playing the TCG with DPPt Arceus. By then, HGSS came...
