1. ALL Gym cards have been put on the Japanese "No-no list" (except for certain trainers which have been reprinted
2. Ever considered that it might actually be a brand new promo? Rocket's Sneasel maybe ![[Wink]](../tcg/wink.gif)

We know three things it can't be:
-Ditto
-any card from Gym Heroes/Challenge
-a Lightning card
Lightning Season had Electabuzz, so it won't be another Lightning card. Gym Pokémon will never be reprinted. Gym Trainer wouldn't be impossible, though (Warp Point was in Expedition).
Blastoise? Maybe. Hitmonchan? Maybe. But Wigglytuff or Chansey? NEVER. That would really mean the end of Modified as a playable format.

The next card is "Rocket Man"... Rocket's Hitmonchan.
It hits Electabuzz' weakness, so it makes some sense that that would be the next one released. After all, Fighting needs anything it can get right now!

Lizard you post like you actually *know* what the next card will be.. If this is so How many Bothans died to get that info and please can I share your sources....
FWIW I think Rocket 'Chan, cos it fits the title of the song best.
Oh the suspense!

Bothans?  I had nothing to do with the attack on those Bothans!  I mean, there were no Bothans killed, at all! ...as far as I know... 
It's just a guess.

What does BLASTOISE have on each shoulder; or what comes out of BLASTOISE's shell?!
Water cannons/blasters/ROCKETs!!! I guess BLASTOISE, the raindance-king, is the ROCKET MAN!

I don't expect any babies will be reprinted, based on this conversation I had during the GenCon Team sealed event:
Me: This is really weird.
MTM: How's that?
Me: No babies.
MTM: I hate babies.
Probably hasn't won many elections...
Of course, the reference could be a red herring.

Picture Origins last year, the first Sanctioned Team Play Constructed Tournament. Team Rocket's Meowth everywhere... Who didnt like it? MTM!
Then Promos 1-20 mysteriously dissapeared... even though some started to be reprinted. Something fishy is going on ![[Razz]](../tcg/tongue.gif)

I'd put my money on Blastoise coming back to MF. Why else would they put back electabuzz? I guess they wanted it to be more balanced and let every type of deck to actually stand a chance.

Why not Rocket's Sneak Attack? Now that Slowking's gone, we do need some kind of Trainer disruption. Plus it was reprinted in the Japanese Web set. As a Supporter card i think.

I think these could be brand new promos ... that could be old Japanese promos.
Two Japanese VS promos could be ok, as these have Rocket in their name and are basic Pokemons ... Rocket's Scizor and Rocket's Sneasel.

Let me put my 2 cents into this matter...It wont be Blastoise, Hitmochan, Cleffa, Dark Golbat and Scyther. ![[NoNoNo]](../tcg/graemlins/nonono.gif)
I will tell you that it is a NEW CARD that nobody has seen before but it is a Japanese Promo of.......(drum rolls) Rocket Sneasel
Rocket's Sneasel 60HP
Entrap (D) The Defending Pokemon can't retreat during your opponents next turn.
Continous Scratch (C C) Flip 4 coins this attack does 10 damaged times the number of heads.
Retreat Cost C
Resistance Pyschic
Weakness Fighting
Just my 2 cents.... ![[Evil Smirk]](../tcg/graemlins/Up_to.gif)

SO! Soslow and Dok are the treacherous fiends responsible for all those Bothan deaths! 
Is the retreat cost for this little weasel zero, like the others? If so, I just may have a use for that card...
