While 'Majestic Dawn' may not be the best name possible, it certainly is an improvement on 'Great Encounters' and definitely 'Secret Wonders', in my opinion. However, we must all remember that it is the content of the set that is important, and this set looks to be a nice addition to the card pool for this and next season. Being an Eevee fan myself, I can't wait to get the new family of Eeveelutions. Leafeon LV.X looks to be promising, as well as the looked forward to Garchomp LV.X.

Not to mention that blue and green (primarily blue, though) are my favorite colors, and if this next set themes Leafeon and Glaceon, the potential pack art and overall color scheme excites me.

Enjoy Garchomp X while you can, once Mewtwo X is out bye bye Garchump.

At first, I didn't know what he meant either, but now I think I got it.

Garchomp LV.X's attack "Rebirth" brings any Pokemon from your discard pile onto your Bench and allows you to attach up to three basic Energy cards to it. This means that you can potentially bring back a Stage 2 Evolution card and automatically get it back. HOWEVER, Mewtwo LV.X's Poke-Body prevents all effects of attacks, including damage, done to Mewtwo by Basic Pokemon. SO, since the Pokemon that Garchomp brought back with Rebirth is not evolved, it is basic, thereby making that potentially powerful Pokemon useless against Mewtwo LV.X. By the time Mewtwo LV.X comes, Cessation Crystal will most likely be out of the format, so this paradox will be very hard to overcome if you run into it.

As it been ruled that you treat it like a basic or will you treat it as a stage 2?
 
I think it's a Basic, but I'm not sure. There will probally be a ruling on it for this. Oh, and also Milotic KILLS Mewtwo X with Feebas under it.
 
What's in a name? That which we call a set is still as good. We will all finally be happy the day this set is released. No more 2 decks formal.

Based on similar rulings, it has been ruled it will be treated as a Basic Pokemon.

Also, if you read the wording of Garchomp Lv X and Omanyte PK, it states that the Pokemon they bring into play are to be treated as BASIC Pokemon. So it doesn't matter whats printed on the card, the attack text is going to override anything.

That's not really hard to do considering Feebas' attack.

I am so looking forward to the new set!

My friend is going to die when I open the Eeveelution's LV.Xs before him (Eevee fan)!
 
Hmm.. I wonder if our Nats will get moved from 17th to 24th May. All tournaments here have a tendency to not be run on the day they are supposed to so.. If not, it will be really dissappointing.

Dude, Milotic sucks. Enough said. OMG it can kill one card. Seriously, who uses it?

Well, at least I'll have a use for the Cresselia and Cresselia X i just pulled today(6 boosters[only 2 GE boosters though] lol) now. I can trade em for Glace/Leaf X.
