Now all we need is a fighting Nidoqueen to match up perfectly.

New octillery couldput your opponent into a distressing choice. People often retreat to get away from smokescreen. With this pokemon up, they've either got to lose their active's energy cards, or try attacking. Both are bad as a 40 damage smokescreen can become devestating. If it had dark in it's name, it would go right into my deck. An excellect nidoking. I love it's prospect of bench damage. Some self-destruct pokemon or Brock's Golem could fit this one nicely.

The 'Octopus' and the Nidoking are just good.Could someone post the text on the card?I can't see the card text.

For Octilery,combine with Confusion.Your opponent have to flip two coins just to attack! For Nidoking,it just good.(Four energy for 50 damage plus flip a coin.if heads,you have a chance to do extra damage. [Bounce]

Weak to lightening, makes opponent flip for attacks. Really tough card.

Think of what playablity this has! If water becomes so good that cargo jsut isnt played anymore, and maybe with the release of hitmonchan in the possible future this card could see alot of play. Those babies will get KO'd, and not even metal will stop it, I wonder, DMTM is this power cumulative? Think of giving 10-30 damage to their bench per turn! [Angel]

You have to love the octillery. It can knock out a magcargo in one shot, and if ANY of your opponent's pokemon retreat, they lose ALL energy on them. His best friend is gust of wind. He will be a good up-front staller. This is the perfect diagram of how to use the card.

1st turn - lay down Remoiriad, attach a water and a focus band(so people don't knock it out too fast).

2nd turn - lay octillery, attach a DCE and play 1-4 gust of winds or just attack. Either way, if they try to attack next turn, they have to flip a coin to attack you and flip a coin to get by the focus band(if it knocks you out). If they retreat, they lose all energy.

3rd turn and after - abuse gust of wind and warp point until none of their pokemon have energy on them.

Why not even put a dark ampheros(excuse my spelling) on the bench and damage them for putting a energy on their pokemon too! Only needed one water energy, Octillery could go in a water/electric deck.

Whoa that is one nice and powerful doggie, extreme speed is well extremely nice, that octillary seems to be his opposite though and that nidoking is just O_O and looks awesome for a fun deck or draft...

Nidoking's power cannot be cummulative, as he must be active for the power to be used. Maybe in team play however we could see it cause trouble...!

Define Cumulative....I see a Drgonite/ Nidoking Deck that abuses PP and involves maximum Switch/ Balloon Berry/ Warp Point. Benched Babies just got put in check again.

I think it looks awesome. Well you could use Switch or Double Gust and send up another Nidoking and then use the Power. I really think the Octillery will do good. Looks like Cargo may have some problems =\

Phil I'm sorry but I had to delete Octillery. I would rather not have other people posting cards. Unless by permission.

I had agreed not to post Octillery at all in this thread. It is the nature of exclusivity. I need to honor that in the spirit it is meant.

Hey, that seems like the Discovery Scizor that everyone was upset about how it's attack was worse than the Japanese version!

That should make a couple of people happy.

Add a Strength Charm, and it's a one-shot, no-flip Baby killer!

That's the URL for the iamge of the above Scizor.
My question - How can we navigate these images stored on the WoTC site? Before, it was very easy to go throug hthe gym heroes, challenge and neo genesis pics, but now, it looks harder to navigate. Is this a possible warning to stay away from their pics?

Here's the text for those having trouble.

PokeBody - Posion Resistance - Scizor can't be posioned.

MC - Before doing damage, you may choose 1 of your opponents benched pokemon with no damage counters on it and switch the defending pokemon with it.
CCC - Flip a number of coins equal to the number of Metal Energy attached to Scizor. This attack does 30 damage plus 20 more for each heads.

Team Multiplayer alert! Unless there is a Muk in the arena, this card is really going to rock in TMP! It is also insane to see a Poke-body and two attacks on one card; kinda a Rocket's Mewtwo and Ho-oh theme going on in a way. The second attack does look very good as well.
