A week until the Atom Bomb of 2010/2011 is released. Dang.

Seriously, makes me wonder what the game will become like. New Primes? Maybe a decent dark Pokemon...or not.
 
Well... historically when one deck has become dominant to a large degree mid-format, Nintendo has been pretty good about releasing hard and soft counters to the deck (remember Battle Frontier, for example?), but lately they've been slipping with this (sup gallade).

We'll see what happens soon enough... rather disappointing, though.
 
And you know that... how?

They did say we would get new primes, but "new" could mean artwork... All of the cards we've seen are released in Japan somewhere...
 
Says who? A dutch shop that might misinterpret infos / get wrong infos / whatever? We dont know anything, I certainly dont believe the rest is ALL reprints, this would be TOO lame :/
 
apparently on the beach it says that a children's magazine writer was the one that went to guardian...... and all of the reprints are crappy starters and eeveelutions. (and lost world's confirmed :)

does anyone else think this tells us it'll be hgss-on?
 
what the hell is wrong with pokemon. this is is freakin crap. thank you pokemon for being the dumb you know whats you have ever been since gg
 
not true we get other cards that we dont have yet and exclusive english primes

Hasn't that just been speculation?

This set not being a legend block set is supposed to mean NO primes... ._.

Not saying it for sure, I just thought things like THIS were disproven a long time ago...
 
I think this deck WILL be a threat at 1st, but with a lot of testing, I see there are a lot of weaknesses here.

This deck in my view is a very decent deck at best now. Trust me, feel free to play this, but not only are you going to look silly, but you are going to open the door for even MORE garbage by playing this. There are 3 decks out there that auto beat this deck, and they are the most hated decks of all time, here they are;

Fan Rotom Speed
Shuppet Donk
Uxie Donk
 
Fulop's a great player, so my bit of a rant is in no way discounting that. I'll have to work on my own list and see how testing goes, but I have a hard time seeing how SP, a series of decks wholly known for their ability to outspeed and out-tech any deck in the format (including Machamp, which OHKO's everything in SP for 1 energy), simply cannot deal with a Stage 2 that "OHKO's" stuff for 1 energy..


Because it's a faster mechanic than SP as it takes 2+ "prizes" per turn.
 
Pokebeach backs it up on the front page. So we have multiple sources confirming the same things. Lost World is no longer speculation, it's about as sure as you can be without actually seeing the picture.

This is the most hype in a while, but can I remind you:

Blaze is winning worlds
Rock lock is unbeatable
Donphan is broken
Infernape does 90 for a DRE, the game is over!
Gardevoir ex is broken
etc...
 
I hate how people think that the skill of deck building is the same as the skill of playing...

I hate how people think that the skill of playing is the same as the skill of deckbuilding. They're both important skills to have (deckbuilding is especially if you want to stay ahead of the curve).
 
You can netdeck lists all the time. You can't netdeck a brain, tho. Question is whether you need a brain for Lost World-Decks or not...
