Japanese Noctowl and Granbull??

Pidgeotto Trainer · 01/03/2006, 05:38 PM

I KNOW I have seen spoilers for these cards and it was quite a while ago. Last summer or earlier. They were along the lines of,
Noctowl
Poke-Power
Look at the top 7 cards and take one, arrange the rest on top of your deck as you like.
Granbull
Poke-Power
Look at bottom 4 cards and take two, (and maybe arrange them as you like on the bottom too.)
Anyone know what these cards are from and their probability of coming to the Western World any time soon? (like in Legend Maker)

Yeah.....that Noctowl seems familiar.......and I think there was a Granbull. I believe it was either coming in LM or they were in one of JPN's tins/promo...........but I'm not sure.

A half deck maybe?

I remember someone saying they were supposed to be in the Golden Sky Silvery Sea set. (JPN version of UF)

Yeah, but we got a Granbull/Noctowl. They weren't the same cards. Unless there was two of them in their set and we only got one?

Pidgeotto Trainer · 01/03/2006, 05:55 PM

I think that was the case in the Japanese set. These spoilers were up months before UF came out and I thought they would be in that.

Shiloh Phoenix · 01/03/2006, 08:01 PM

ooh fun. I like those powers...

gunycabj · 01/03/2006, 09:41 PM

Those cards were in the spoilers that i saw of GSSS, but i dont know why we get other versions. I remember another topic of these, maybe search it and see it.

supertyranitar · 01/05/2006, 02:05 AM

I also saw those, If I remembered right, they were in the half-decks, so I'm wondering as to why we never got them =/.

ShawofMordor · 01/05/2006, 09:08 AM

Wow those would make Prof Cozmo a decent card.

blastoise1992 · 01/05/2006, 02:46 PM

I thought prof cozmo was a great draw card anyway.

Dom · 01/05/2006, 07:07 PM

They were apparently supposed to be in GS/SS but never appeared, its possible someone just made them up completely and they were never going to exist. They have not been released in Japan.

I made a topic awhile back here but didn't get much response.

Pidgeotto Trainer · 01/05/2006, 09:45 PM

I doubt it was a mistranslation, the one post in Dom Jordan's topic. Neither Granbull or Noctowl that did come out even had a poke-power to mistranslate into something else.

supertyranitar · 01/06/2006, 01:32 AM

Well it could be possible, but who really knows, There weren't really any pics of the cards to show they exist.

Noctowl - 80 HP (C)
[Poke-Power]
Look at the top 7 cards of your deck, and choose 1 of them and put it into your hand. Put the remaining cards on top of your deck in any order you like. (Vincent is not sure whether this card works while Noctowl is Active or if it can be on the Bench)

(CC) Wing Attack - 30

Weakness: Lightning
Resistance: Fighting
Retreat: (C)

------------------

Granbull - 80 HP (C)
[Poke-Power]
Look at the bottom 4 cards of your deck. Choose two and put them into your hand, and then reorder the remaining 2 cards and put it back to the bottom of your deck. (Vincent is not sure whether this card works while Granbull is Active or if it can be on the Bench)

(CC) Unknown Attack Name - 20
You may discard any Stadium in play.

Weakness: Fighting
Resistance: Psychic
Retreat: (CC)

Something's weird. I'll ask Vincent. He has never been wrong with a translation, and since these cards turned out to be completely different from their GS/SS versions, they could possibly just be completely different cards. There is also the possibility that since we had the set information so early and the translations, the Japanese could had changed the cards.

Is Granbull basic?

Water Pokemon Master · 01/06/2006, 03:35 AM

No, Granbull is the evolved form of Snubull, making it a Stage 1 Pokemon.
