Set Title: Click here to View

Finally got around to updating all 59 cards for Super Smash Bros. Battle Cards's first set (Simply called Super Smash Bros. XD), which is all based on characters, items and stages that appeared in the first Smash game released on N64.

For those of you who do not know much about the Smash Cards, they work just like the Pokemon TCG cards (Hence why I'm posting it here), with a few small differences listed below.

• There's a new Energy type called Star, it's basically a combination of light, magic and space elements, and fits better with the Nintendo style.
• Colorless Energy is referred to as Smash Energy and uses a different symbol.
• Pokemon cards are called Smasher cards.
• The Status Condition Paralysed was renamed to Stunned. Poke-Powers and Poke-Bodies are renamed to Smash Powers and Smash Bodies respectively.
• Stage cards exist, but in this set don't advance any further than Stage 1. Ex cards also exist.
• Trainer cards are called Support cards, and most Support cards work very differently compared to their Pokemon counterparts. In this set are four different kinds of Support cards: Item, Equipment, Setting and Stage cards.
• Stage cards work just like Stadium cards, and Item cards work just like normal Trainer cards. Setting type cards are a different kind of Trainer card under a different category to help seperate them from Item cards.
• Equipment cards are like TMs and function differently. Unlike nearly all TMs which only last for a turn, Equipment Cards can last for varying amounts of time, from one time use to staying until the Smasher it is attached to is Knocked Out.
• Competitively wise, Smash Cards focus more on Support cards than the Pokemon TCG do with Trainer cards.
• There's a few rule differences that I don't bother to go into detail about because I've already talked too much.

Keep in mind that when reviewing these cards, despite using the same gameplay functions as Pokemon TCG, it isn't exactly compatible with it. Compared to the Pokemon TCG, Smash Cards use a HP, Weakness/Resistance and Retreat Cost formula similar to that of the D&P series cards, but uses the damage and effect formula from the original Base Set series. I did this for longer lasting battles because I thought Pokemon did an insanse amount of damage for 3+ Energy compared to previous sets (That and many Smashers don't go past Basic Stage).

Also another thing to take note, while few of the Smashers with lower HP may come across as useless to you, future sets will be made with higher Stage cards for these Smashers (Including Lv.X card equivilents called FS, short for Final Smash).

If you're wondering why the numbers jump, it's because they're numbered differently compared to Pokemon TCG cards. But I'd reckon you guys would prefer it if they were grouped the same way as Pokemon TCG cards were.

Just from what I'm seeing, Saffron City is a really awesome stage, and Link seems a little OP. Link + Saffron = T1 40 damage on average.

I like the variety of built-in drawpower, particularly Board the Platforms. That makes for a very interesting gameplay style.

Starting Saffron and then switching to Break the Targets in a Link deck though... ._.

 

[Shadowmaster]

Lol, for me it would entirely depend on whether the majority of the deck focused on coin flipping or if the deck didn't have much Energy.

Though I did make an Assist card (Equivilent to Supporter cards) that had 8 coin flips the once. >________>

Dude, I cannot wait for a Melee/Brawl expansion, that would be so cool.

But these cards still rock. I'm thinking of printing them out and playing with them at leagues or something.:thumb:

Btw, does anybody know that Ness actually can't learn PSI Fire on Earthbound?

Cool, click here for a picture of the cardback if you'd like it for when you print out the cards:

I must warn you though, I do update previous cards once in a while for balancing purposes. Heck the reason I'm posting them here so people who have a better understanding of the Pokemon TCG mechanics/metagame could lend me their opinions on whether a card's too powerful or too weak.

But there is a program that allows you to play nearly any kind of card games with other people online (Including Pokemon), I'll post more about it once I get the Smash Bros. plugin ready.

W00t! Ness! XD
Btw, does anybody know that Ness actually can't learn PSI Fire on Earthbound?

Yeah much like how he can't learn PSI Thunder or PSI Starstorm. I may eventually make another Ness card (Maybe for Brawl set or as a Promo), that uses his actual abilities that he used in his game.
