You are probably thinking of Power Keepers. Japan got it a bit later as World Champion Pack.

There have been a few other international-only cards over the years. Raikou GX did not have a JP print, nor did Tornadus GX or Thundurus GX. There are a few others slipping my mind, including some Gen V cards (one of the Kyurems, forget which), but generally when it occurs it doesn't seem to...

You can play it for free right now. Wow! It's so nice to finally have access to this game which I haven't been able to play in such a long time. I'm glad Nintendo has set this up on the Nintendo Switch and their finely curated online service. I'm running out the door right now to buy a Switch...

I've talked about this before but it's ridiculous that when Creatures did the Pokémon models for Pokédex 3D and 3D Pro, everyone loved them, but for some reason when they use these same/similar models for the card game they themselves create and manage, they are constantly shit on.

It's been pointed out to you before that there is no guarantee that that phrase will remain in perpetuity. This phrases already does not appear, and in fact never appeared, on the JP cards.

Has anyone here ever tried TCG One? I recently heard about it and it's interesting.

I'm very excited for the Kanto Mini Tins! I will purchase 10 tins for every complaint about the first generation of Pokémon made in this thread!

One thing that will always stick out about Kadabra's long gap in the TCG is going to be the conspicuous gap in the DPBP# cards from the Gen 4 era of the TCG. Given the theme of the set it's wildly unlikely, but I always (hopelessly) hoped the set bringing Kadabra back would have a chase card...

The fancy art Terrastral exes are undermined by the asinine hats. Reminds me of how VMAXes were undermined by the ridiculous clouds. Looking forward to the second half of this gen, kind of.

Plenty of sets did and still have cohesion, it's just getting lost in translation with the modern TCG because they haphazardly glue 5 separate sets into one megaset.

those are lower res

Here's a thought for you: you're making a complete moron out of yourself in the comments section for a news announcement about an announcement for new cards. The reality is, if these products didn't sell, they wouldn't keep making them. As much as you want to deny it, there have been fanservice...

Every generation of the TCG has had themed sets focused on previous generations but it's only the Gen I themed sets that evoke this kind of whining. Why does it upset people so much? Is it jealousy that you will never grow up under peak Pokemania?

It was innocent fun and it helps maintain a sense of cards feeling different/special from others. Remember when the Dark and Metal type cards felt special? They eventually had to drop that because the number of Pokémon that now matched that typing was too much to keep doing a gimmick with two...

ok

Unusual that there are so many instances of multiple basic Pokémon in the core set. We're used to that in the international language editions of the game, typically as a result of different sets and/or preconstructed decks being combined into single large sets, but it's not the standard for the...

That's kind of the thing for me. All the alt arts are nice but the pull rates aren't good enough for the amount that end up existing.

they're not real autographs

Could very easily end up being an exclusive holofoil style for Europe, the same way Japan has had exclusive holofoil styles, and North America has had its own exclusive holofoil styles.

Hype to boost sales. They'll say the same thing about the special set for holiday 2023, then for 2024, etc.
