As some of you may've already seen, Japan's newest set The Advent of Arceus brings into play Arceus, the 'God' Pokemon and also introduces (or kind of REintroduces) the ability to use as many of one card (Arceus) as you'd like in your deck. This mold breaking game factor (The Arceus Rule) is obviously hinting to how well the different forms of Arceus will work together, thus forming what will probably be an Arceus Archtype (which I'm not all that looking forward to ._.)

But back on topic. Of all the pokemon out there that deserve a ruling like this, how come Eevee has never gotten a privilege like this? With so many evolutionary lines, and so many of those working well together (like teching in Espeon or Umbreon from MD) it would only seem appropriate to give the little guy some kind of advantage. The 4 card limit on Eevee makes it annoying to have to run an Eeveelution deck and I just thought it'd make more sense and be quite refreshing to see some sort of 'Eevee Rule' if you would.

With Arceus getting a ruling like this, do you think it's possible to see more pokemon like Eevee receiving this kind of treatment?

(Just a small discussion is all)
 
They have to do SOMETHING after the "God" of Pokemon comes out. What's left after that? The 4-card limit is broken, maybe certain Pokemon merging somehow, maybe a new EX/Lv. X kind of deal...who knows.
 
I would love to see Eevee get this treatment, at least to let us run more than 4 of him. Eevee has been the "multi-type" Pokemon for far longer than Arceus, it was the original Pokemon to have 3 split evolutions with different types. Show some love for Eevee PCL!
 
the only thing this makes broken is the fact you can play a 4-4 arceas X line. having 5 of an arceas will take up to much space.
 
I'd like to avoid this happening with any other Pokemon, really. Eeveelution decks, and pretty much any other deck in the game has been successful without being able to break a fundamental rule, and I hope this trend continues, and the Arceus deck is just a one-off thing. I think opening up the game for things like this with other Pokemon could lead to some extremely broken scenarios. That's just me, though, maybe it'd be fun if they could make it work.
 
The Eeveelutions out of RR make eevee easier to run without implementing a new rule to the game. The ability to search out eeveelutions, as well as a reusable Eevee make up for it.
 
Because Eevee decks would be too good if you could run more than 4. And Arceus is a god. If Eevee had created the universe, maybe he would have the honor.
 
Yo, Eevee did create the universe. Didn't you know? That's why every time a new generation of Pokemon comes out he reveals to us another of his many, many Pokemon. When asked on the Pokemon radio show why he didn't allow us to see his 11 other types he responded, "You can't handle my other forms, there just too powerful for any trainer to handle." However when Arceus stepped into the picture for the fourth Generation of Pokemon Eevee just couldn't handle being showed up a poser and gave humanity two more of his 17 total different evoluions. Of course this was just to prove that he was still and one and only god and creator of all Pokemon.

As everyone knows Eevee and Arceus have had a long and bitter feud about who created the universe and unfortunately Arceus took the bitter rivarly too far by convincing the Pokemon TCG creators to give him a rule that allowed for any number of him to be played in a deck. To this Eevee just shook his head and told Arceus, " While you need to break the game to beat me, I can beat you without there even being more than four copies of me in a deck."

And when this new Pokemon set comes out in Japan Eevee will lay some smack down on Arceus just to prove once and for all that he is the one and only pokemon God.

To tell you the truth, that wasn't funny. At all.




Eevee needs this rule about as bad as I want to get hit by a truck. How many broken cards do we need in this game?
 
4 Eevees worked fine for me....:biggrin:

Seems like the game continues to evolve. I sure hope they take the time to evaluate the rules and adjust them accordingly.

Eevee with a sort of "Arcues rule" would simply be too broken for the current metagame to handle, IMO. Eeveelutions isn't a bad deck as is; the only thing holding it back is the limit of Leafeons, Glaceons, Umbreons, and Espeons that the deck can have out at one time.
 
yeah i have an eevee deck and they should make so you can at least play 5 or 6 of the liitle guys in 2006 i played an eevee deck with all five eeveelutions thats not fair for eevee man and i bet they are better than the arceus
 
As great as it would be too have such a rule, I think Eevee is just fine without it, quite personally. It doesn't have to use ALL of the eeveelutions, that's just overkill.
 
yes there needs to be an eevee rule

there has always needed to be an eevee rule

some of us really like eevee

eevee has got to be one of the most ridiculous TCG concepts ever.


o yesss yess, lets let you have upwards of 34 copies of Eevee's evolutions in 1 deck

o yeah, but only 4 Eeves???!?!?! 0.o 0.o

come on people, give me a break of course there needs to be an eevee rule.

for those that dont like eevee or play eevee, shut up for gods sakes... what do you care if we get an eevee rule? will your world turn upside down?

why must you make people UN-happy when for all intensive purposes you could care less?


IF YOU DON'T WANT TO PLAY UNLIMITED EEVEE THEN DONT!

but dont punish the rest of us, who would LOVE to use all 7 forms of eevee in 1 deck.
 
look man my eevee deck plays all seven of them just fine with only 4 eevee. I don't how you play your eevee deck but mine somehow manages to win just fine with all seven. there is no need for a rule for eevee.

It's not a question of Ifs and wants, the bottom line of this matter is that Eevee does indeed have too many evolutions, but with it gives many possibilities.

If you TRULY loved Eevee you'd realize the intricacy if building a deck around 1-3 of them *maybe 3-5 with the new RR Evoltions making things a bit easier, albeit transforming back into an Eevee with low HP can KO yourself if your not careful* It's because of the freshness with so many evolutions that keeps this theme wonderful.

in the end, things are fine the way they are, and running all forms in 1 deck is far too much nor will you have the room for the energies/ Pokemon anyways.
 
I agree that Eevee needs the rule. I just started playing Eevee and it would help so much to have more then 4 Eevees in a deck. I mean, after you drop a Umbreon and Espeon, even if you use the RR Vaporeon, Jolteon and Flareon, it only leaves you 2 Eevees which if they have 5 or 6 Damage Counters depending if you use CCF or SOE prevents you from using Undevelop because Eevee would die. Allowing everyone to use 4 Eevees from different sets would make it better. I like 12 or 16 Eevees better then 4 because they support each other pretty well. They should give the idea a shot. I mean, it cound not hurt the game any worse the way they hurt it with SP Pokemon.
