I want Ninjask and Shedninja now >_<

Liking alot of the cards in this set :) I might actually buy a booster box this set :O!
Has been awhile since I got one (I think TR was the last one)

But there are alot of cards in this set that I want to use, alot less junk to get when you buy a booster box :)
And I want mew-EX because it's MEW! (That's a good enough reason for me)
 
Looks like the Hype Train is gonna be running strong with this set. Rayquaza will be the most highly sought-after EX since Mewtwo, and Mew and Terrakion aren't too bad either. The Tools in this set are going to be huge.

Between this set and any potential format rotation, things are going to be a lot different come the beginning of the 2012-13 season.

Shame Shaymin will probably be gone before this set. Otherwise, you could do some crazy energy acceleration with multiple Ho-oh in the discard.

Also, we seem to have been getting a lot of cards recently that feel like they exist specifically to hard-counter another card. Crygonal, Heatmor, and now Siligliph. (although the later has uses besides killing Mewtwo)

Wow. One other card looked good, don't remember what that was...

Evolve Nincada > Play Ninjask > Put Shedinja on the bench > Night Slash for 60 > Retreat Ninjask for Shedinja > Let Shedinja be killed (or something) > Put Ninkask back again > ????? > Profit (120 for 2).

Kinda random to have both Shedinja and Ninjask on the hand, but sounds like a nice combo if you don't get catchered. Even if the other player passes Shedinja's got free retreat.

Also, again, Milotic.

This looks like an awesome set and will be one of the most entertaining pre releases ever.
 
A few notable cards that I found.

Milotic: It and Feebas give :water: types the support they've needed for so long.

Emolga: Considering that Collector might not be coming out before the possible rotation Emolga becomes a great option having free retreat, and getting two basics.

Manectric: 20 damage for each energy your opponent has in play...need I say more?

Bofoulant: Donphan with EX counter, lower retreat, basic, and Eviolite privileges. :3 Me Gusta.

[DEL]Also lol they listed Gothitelle twice[/DEL]

i personally cant wait for this set. so many more decks will be viable imo and by this time i think that mewtwo ex wont be broken at all and EXs will be even more balanced than they are now
 
Is Devolution Spray actually Hyper Devolution Spray, or is it one of those rewrite-reprints, like Energy Retrieval and Potion?

Gothitelle:
Man, if I'm reading Gothitelle's first attack correctly...
Flip 2 coins. If both are heads, your opponent's active Pokemon is knocked out. -O_O well then

Like RS Dusclops? Only RS Dusclops did not have Victini...

Am I the only one who thinks that PCL took the fact that the previous formats were better a bit too literally?

No, you're not the only one. It is painfully obvious. If they want to reprint the cards, just reprint the cards. We'll still buy them, as evidenced by Legendary Collection, Power Keepers, and Call of Legends.

Not to mention that they're doing nothing but Basic EXs so there really is no point of playing Stage2 Pokémon. Mew EX with 120 HP but Jumpluff still in 90 HP - someone has forgotten to power creep Stage Pokémon...

Maybe Japan has decided evolving a pokemon is too hard?
