Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Same pokemon again and again...

Its a marketing strategy. No one wants a Spinda LvX. They want a legend made into a lvX. Sells more packs that way.

Spinda Lv. X, hmmm sound cool to me. Some of the older pokemon generations dont get enough love. There were and are a lot of pokemon in the orginal 151 that deserved or should of gotten a Ex. Pidgeot, Butterfree, Beedrill, Alakazam, Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Poliwrath, Machamp, and Victreebel to name a select few. There are a few Stage 1's that deserve it also.

Maybe... they don't make new Pokemon for each set!:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:
How many Pokemon do you think there'd be if cards were never reprinted?:lol::lol:

They should hurry up with doing Pre-DP Lv.Xs.

I agree. Its just a shame that most people just want legendary pokemon :nonono:
Poliwrath Ex back then would have made me so happy, but then again the UF poliwrath
was my favorite and i had politoad ex to fill my need for that line.



Hey it's possible. We have about 12 Lv.Xs that are yet to be released. It's possible we'll get more than we bargain for in the next set.
I didn't mean to offend if I did.
I was just saying that Japan seems to put more in there sets and we have them so spread out.
Sorry again :biggrin:

I dont know if this was for me but if it was I wasn't saying to never
remake a line. That would be dumb. I am just saying wait awhile before doing it.
I would love to see Kangaskhan again. I looked at spoilers and noticed we will soon.
SAD to say it was aweful... It even had its old version of comet punch.... :frown:
 
I tell you what I always liked.


The comeback sets like UF, EM/DX, and FRLG. They focused on certain areas of the pokemon world, That way each set had diff. pokemon. What I liked better were the theme sets. The holon theme, the magma/aqua theme, the rocket theme.


The thing is, is that the newest sets are just cards, nothing makes any certain set unique or different then the others,

I know. UF was the best.
 
I have a Poster from 1997 that has a Black Jynx on it.
I win.

Anyway, I've always wanted more obscure pokemon made into playable cards. Not only do they rarely print pokemon like Victreebel, Butterfree, Marowak, the Hitmon trio, ditto, Noctowl, Azumarill, Fortress, Piloswine, Ursaring, Octillery, Pinsir, Gligar, (altough it will get some lovin soon), and loads of others, but they are terrible when they are printed.

I want me a really good Piloswine Lv X. No, I'm not kidding.

Seeing as mamaswine is out there, I dont think you will
ever get that Piloswine Lv X ......

I agree with you 100%
Those pokemon never get any love, or at least
when they do they stink...

Fortress Lv.X would be awesome
 
Victreebel almost seems forgettable to me, which is really strange since it's 1st generation. There are plenty of them from the 2nd gen, like hitmontop and quilfish.

Speaking of theme sets, if they ever do a remake of gold/silver, maybe we'll get to see the revival of gym leader cards. I know they came out with g/s leader cards in Japan years ago, but they never printed them in America. I think all the pokemon from that set was basic too.

The EX era was crazy with reprints, wasn't it? I think there were 2 flygons out of EX Dragon, then we got flygon ex, flygon delta, flygon ex delta. Bleh.
 
Um:
Hidden Legends
Deoxys
Delta Species
Power Keepers
There another one but I can't think of the set. It's the Ex one with the attack that does 50+.
Don't forget, Delta Species also had Metagross*. There was also one in POP1. Is 9 an acceptable exaggeration of 7?
