Thanks for the updates...I wish somebody would rule on the RR Sharpedo Crush (there's a post in the "Ask the Rules team..."
I am dying to wait for Friday when we can buy these babies. (packs)

Yay updates! ^_^

I think there needs to be a fix on Hippowdon lv X, I noticed the power is a little hard to understand: "...Each player shuffles all cards in play (excluding pokemon and supporter cards) into their decks..." And then what? Does everything get replaced and in what order? If you replace the prize cards, does the same number of prizes come back or a new 6? I was extremely puzzled.
