GG - Fury Strikes Your opponent puts 3 markers onto his or her Pokemon (divide as he or she chooses). (More that 1 marker can be put on the same Pokemon.) Then, this attack does 10 damage to each Pokemon for each marker on it. Don't apply Weakness and Resistance. Remove the markers at the end of the turn. Weakness - Fire Resistance - none Retreat Cost - CC Best Promo #6 Also, the non-winner Hitmonchan still has the 60HP misprint. -------------------- Proud member of Team PokéParents - we play Pokémon with our kids!

Dark Venusaur and Ivysaur are real cool, and I've always wanted them to be released in English. I didn't like the reprinting of 'Buzz and 'Chan, because I dislike that they can be played in Modified, and I didn't like anything about the two Rocket's cards except that they looked kind of cool. THIS is a cool promo! -------------------- Norwegian Championships - register here Have/Want list Visit Team Europe's new home page: TE v. 2.0 Be sure not to miss: Norwegian Championships 2003 From: Norway, in front of a Mac, designing the new TE homepage | Registered: Feb 2001  |  IP: Logged The Dark Llama Member Member # 75434 posted March 31, 2003 07:55 PM             Funny how they changed them from regular Neo Destiny-style cards to to the newer e-card style.

The one thing I would of like is with the Dk Ivysaur is if you put the damage counters on your opponents Pokemon and not your Opponent, would of made it a little bit better card. And I agree with the idea of getting a Promo Unown R before WOTC is not longer doing OP.
