Hey there, Pokegym. The (presumedly) soon to be popular, fire-weak cards Vrizion EX and Genesect EX recently translated into English for Plasma Blast. I was wondering what Fire Pokemon might be able to hold their own in decks or as techs in the upcoming, unknowable, mysterious format. So...

True. If Prism Energy were for Evolved Pokemon only, that would have been really interesting. That aside, I wonder what other Pokemon search we will have (maybe in... supporters? :3)

I'm excited about a grass deck and I'm probably going to play Grass next format. I know that Genesect and Virizion work really well together, but I wonder how Virizion might benefit on its own? Would that be somewhat viable?

If it's been ruled officially, then it's not really opinion anymore. It's a rule. I'm not sure if it has in specific reference to Plasma Pokemon. Giratina is Giratina. It is a "plasma" Pokemon much like certain cards were Delta Species Pokemon. For example, Delta/Holon (not Holon's) Jolteon...

The special energy isn't really necessary, it could be a lot of fun. But the types do need a little more balance a la VG

Recently I have seen a large spike in Magic cards at stores like Target. Where the selection was once maybe a starter deck, it is now 1/3 of the card/trading card (game) section (not counting the cards that are on shelves or otherwise not on "pegs"). I think all the success of Pokemon is...

I'm trying to be careful not to jump to any conclusions, I was confused earlier... But from what i see now thanks to more input I think in this case it wasn't bribery or anything and seems like a reasonable incentive. It's your pokemon cards, so it should be okay to give them to Cindy but not...

Thank you all for the helpful information, my friend has a store but probably will not stock the cards. We were just curious. I hope this info will also help others.

I was just wondering how Pokemon works on the retail side, and if there's any public information about it. What I am asking, more specifically, is about the method in which cards go from Pokemon to Walmart, Target, Toys-R-Us, and smaller local card stores. Many local card store locations...

The lowest I have ever seen the packs was about 2.47 USD at some card store way out in the middle of rural Tennessee (road trip!). They didn't have very many, and they were all NVI and the newest ones out (which at the time were BCR) were at a "normal" price, I don't remember. But my brother and...

Basically, if/when/whatever a rotation occurs, the BLW cards will be out for sure. EPO will probably also be out of Modified. Honestly, I would be kind of disappointed if Heavy Ball, Level Ball, and Prism Energy were all lost :/

The spirit of headhunting is wrong, but it doesn't seem terribly effective. If a player plans to scoop for their own reasons, and you bribe them to try to win, that's still wrong :/

The Keldeo are not plasma. All Pokemon are EX except Kyurem.

That would be fun, but kind of complicated. Yu-gi-oh had some sort of split typing, which could be carried over here But that is kind of complicated against the fact that some Pokemon have split typing, like Burmy in the Bug/Grass department. Maybe the card could be Bug type but just use Grass...

I think this gen's Pokemon released so far are much cooler than the ones from gen 5... personal opinion, but Gen 6 is shaping up as much more interesting... The theme is "European" in my mind and some of the Pokemon fit much more clearly... Europe makes me think of all of these Pokemon, to a...
