Tyranitar's Power Claw ignores Poke-Powers, Poke-Bodies, and any other effects on the defending Pokemon. Do Abilities fall under "effects?" Does Power Claw get through Samurott's ability?

There's lots of threads with this topic somewhere in it but let's keep it here. Sableye is not any more broken under BW rules. It automatically gives you the first turn, but if anything that HELPS other decks even more... Sableye will be a viable starter in any deck if anything to give you...

At States on Saturday, my a player diagonally from me tried to use Super Connectivity, then checked his discard and saw that he had no energies. The judge ruled that he still used the Power since you can use a power for no effect. Is that correct? I understand using a power for no effect and the...

I've been thinking about this for weeks. When playing against an SP deck, some people say "go ahead" when you play a Poke Power to indicate they are not using Spray, and some people simply remain silent to indicate you may use the Power. If I announce a "choice" Poke-Power (Kingdra Prime...

Hoorah! For those of us who didn't go to worlds and get an awesome 2nd place, the end season break is finally almost over! It was long and boring, but we made it. So burn your Claydols, wear your Machamp repellent, and prep for a blind format at these Fall Virginia Battle Roads! From the...

http://pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?t=126923 IIRC, the 30 card prof format rules say no promos.

Today at a BR, in someone's pack, there was a blank, purple slip of paper between 2 cards. Anyone seen this before/know why it happens?

Winner's path http://www.pokemongoldsilver.com/us/#/news/winner-path New Winner's Path, has Pokemon with moves they don't usually learn: Beldum w/Shuca Berry - Zen Headbutt Bronzor w/Wacan Berry - Trick Room Duskull w/Reaper Cloth - Imprison Horsea w/Dragon Scale - Muddy Water Magikarp w/Occa...

How many cards total have been printed ever, total? Has anybody done a recent estimate?

Picked up an HGSS binder at Target, and it had a cardlist in it for HGSS. Oh, and our trainers AREN'T being renamed to Goods. :thumb: --------------------------- HOLO 1 Arcanine 2 Azumarill 3 Clefable 4 Gyarados 5 Hitmontop 6 Jumpluff 7 Ninetales 8 Noctowl 9 Quagsire 10 Raichu 11...

I was unclear, I apologize. I have a Switch that is not just a foreign card, but also an older version of the foreign card, from Base Set. It does NOT have a text change. Do I use the most RECENT English printing as a translation, or the Base Set Switch card as a translation?

My grandma, who saw my Facebook status asking if anybody had any Double Colorless Energy from their old cards, thought it would be cute to get me some for my birthday, but they're in Japanese. What is the rule for providing translations for reprints? Would I provide the old Double Colorless...

http://pokegym.net/forums/showthread.php?t=117306 The way I have read the rules, Energy CARD means an actual basic energy that provides Fighting... is the ruling above correct? If so, why?

I played a REAAALLY notable player at Regionals last year (I'm talking one of the first names you think of when you think of elite players), and he did this little trick in almost every game just as a luck thing: He would take the bottom 7 cards of the newly shuffled deck and put them on top...

So what ever happened with Trapinch SW's attack and how there was an issue between how it worked here and how it did in Japan? Did the rule stay that if the benched OR active have Unown G, they can't be switched?

http://pokebeach.com/2009/08/next-english-set-platinum-arceus What a simple name! It's so weird compared to the other, strange names they have. For once, they aren't delaying the "big legendary" because of a movie! Good move! A lotttt of promo stuff is coming out with the set as well, with...

This is almost a week late... 6 days in fact, but I am shocked that nobody made a "RIP Les Paul" thread. Les Paul was of course the iconic guitar player who crafted the Les Paul guitar, a rock icon. He was STILL playing live at 94.

I watched the Junior Finals video... and I noticed that the Junior who lost had only 5 Pokemon... was this because one was deemed an illegal Pokemon, or did he do this out of choice for some odd reason?

Arceus has been revealed to English-speaking audiences on Pokemon.com. This could actually mean that we WILL get Arceus in our Fall set... it is possible.
