    List of Promo Card release dates [Updated 2017-01-21]

    Thank you, and sorry for the confusion this caused! As stated in the disclaimer, this list is merely repeating information from the sources quoted above, and I hope the additional disclaimers are making this absolutely clear. I've been waiting for confirmation from Organized Play on Giratina...

    List of Promo Card release dates [Updated 2017-01-21]

    Updated with Mythical Pokémon Collection–Meloetta, also added missing Coll.#s. The Autumn 2016 Collector Chest has been confirmed twice by a TPCi Organized Play representative to have a US release date of November 18. Considering the homepage still states this date, I'm inclined to trust my...

    List of Promo Card release dates [Updated 2017-01-21]

    It's on my list of things to clarify :)

    List of Promo Card release dates [Updated 2017-01-21]

    Since double-checking this exact question with TPCi was answered with "release date", and the US homepage now also lists a launch date of Nov 18, it seems like this is actually the day we should treat as the US release date. I agree, however, that it is unusual - still, this date is the only...

    List of Promo Card release dates [Updated 2017-01-21]

    Since it keeps coming up, I've decided to sift through the TCG product gallery and compile a list of promo cards released in 2016 including their US release dates, provided it is listed, for an overview and a quick way of looking them up (press Ctrl+F in order to search within this page). I'll...

    Pokémon-BREAK & Ancient Traits, Unlimited

    Since Pokémon Lv.X still have access to Abilites etc., do Pokémon-BREAK work accordingly and keep all the text that's below the previous card's picture (Poké-Powers, printed-on Items etc.)? What about if the previous card has an Ancient Trait (that would be covered up by the BREAK card)?

    Re: Beedrill's Allergic Shock

    Well I keep encountering people who seem a little confused by the wording change, resulting in questions like "If I switch to a Pokémon that does 10 damage to each opponent's Pokémon, will each Defending Pokémon be KO'd?" It's quite obvious that this isn't intended, but I was hoping for an...

    Beedrill's Allergic Shock

    Just to be sure, is Beedrill PRC's Allergic Shock meant to target the opponent's Active Pokémon rather than (all) Defending Pokémon, similar to how the Fighting Stadium was using an old template? Thank you very much :)

    Re: Modified Legal Reprints

    Thanks for the list, I was in fact not aware it existed. Everything else was covered except for Max Revive - how about that one?

    Modified Legal Reprints

    Since the Modified Legal Reprints list is kinda outdated, I've just been compiling a list. However, I wanted to check whether the ones with text changes are too different or could be played with a reference: 1. Devolution Spray (Base Set) - not legal (since Hyper DS = new DS)? 2. Great Ball -...

    Swellow's Drive Off

    This is the English version of Swellow (XY 103). In German, there's an additional phrase: "if this Pokémon is your Active Pokémon". Which one is correct? Does it have to be Active or would Drive Off work from the bench?

    Xerneas' Geomancy

    Just making sure again: "Choose 2 of your Benched Pokémon. For each of those Pokémon, search your deck for a Fairy Energy card and attach it to that Pokémon. Shuffle your deck afterward." If I had just one benched Pokémon, I could use it and just "do as much as you can", right? Choosing the...

    Mega-Evo Deck restrictions

    Just to make sure, the M is considered part of the name, so you could play 4 Blastoise EX and 4 M-Blastoise EX in the same deck, right? As always, thanks for your help!

    A few Team play questions

    Hello, I'm trying to figure out a few questions since I'll be judging a fun tournament using team play, and because I can't find rulings similar enough to some specific cards, I'd be very grateful for some advice :) 1. If I go first, is my team partner allowed to evolve (basically "can't...

    Crobat PLS + Virbank City Gym

    A question came up regarding Crobat PLS + Virbank City Gym and whether Poison damage counters are "set" at 4 counters or will be affected by the Stadium, so I'd like to check whether I've got the underlying mechanic right: Are the "4 damage counters instead of 1" considered sort of "modified...
