Throughout the history of the Pokemon TCG, we've gotten various levels of the Japanese Promos released, but we've never had ALL of them. I think the only promos we've had in the US that they did not receive, was the Mewtwo promo with art by Christopher Rush of Magic fame, and the Kids WB promos. Even at that, I'm pretty sure they got those cards with different art. I feel like someone may have once described it as "a glut of Japanese promos" and I can easily see the difficulty: Pokemon just isn't as huge here as it is in Japan. I'm under the impression that lately PUI has been trying to lump groups of promos in with the non-Japanese sets, and I think we all appreciate it.
I'm under the impression the Japanese get cards other than Victory Medal for winning Battle Roads now, and I'd like it if we did too. I know in an earlier thread, started by Ruiner I believe, I had mentioned that while people were upset with changes in prize distribution, this was potentially something that PUSA could do to add value to their events without changing costs (presumably).
Lucario EX would've given people pause for thought. I don't really keep up with all of the Japanese promos. Anyone wishing there were some other promos we had gotten? Also, someone bring this thread to a hault if we're now getting nearly every promo and I just don't realize it.
A lot of the threads on here lately have been pretty negative, and I hope people can ditch a tone of "I'm bitter we didn't get" and replace it with a mindset of "in the future, I hope to see more ..." We know POP reads the boards, lets give them something potentially useful.
My big one: I'd really prefer unique promo offerings, instead of 8 different arts for Piplup that do the same thing.
