Hmm... I'm looking in my crystal ball... it's kind of hard to see...

Ajax: That's not a crystal ball! That's my foot!

Indeed it is. No wonder all I saw was scales and claws. Okay... now to look in my REAL crystal ball...

Ajax: OUCH!!! Let go of my tail!

Sorry, sorry. Well, I'm having a little trouble locating my crystal, so I'll just have to use my gut feeling... which just says that I'm hungry. Really hungry. It doesn't help that I smell lasagne. So much for the idea of trusting my gut feeling. An educated guess, perhaps that will work better... Unown R will be released, as the super-secret Season 9 League Promo. Without my crystal ball handy, though, I really don't know.

Ajax: You don't even have a crystal ball.

Of course. I knew that.

Gawd...do you REALLY want another Unown? I think I've used the things all of twice...once I tecHed an unown M into my Erika's Victreebel deck, and once I ran out of toilet paper.

Yeah, it was a promo in Japan, so it will (probably) be a promo in America too, but it can't be the promo for the Psychic Season, that's Mew, lily pad Mew...

nick15: Dukhovskoknabilebskohatsk, Russia? You're kidding, right?

I know the first time ive heard of the unknown r not being craeted yet was when Charwolf had the entire unknown collection and was missing it. If its so important just have it created as the 2nd promo for the physcic season. I know somewhere along the line some set wizards makes will have the unknown r in it. I mae this funny broken text for an unknow r power so ill probabily make a fake for it in a week or so.

Here is teh text i thought up:

Pokemon Power: Reflect
As long as unknown r is your active pokemon it copies all your opponents pokemons attacks except cost and anything required to do the attack.

Attack is Hidden retaliation
2 phy energy to attck. 20 damage. If unknown r is knocked out by attack power or effect,Flip a coin,If heads unknown r is not knocked out. It has 10 hp left and the defending pokemon has 10 hp left. It it is a baby pokemon it is knocked out.

We will get R sometime. But I cant see this as important...I mean its an Unown =\ The only playable Unowns are D, N, M

Well, if you guyz think about it, that isn't very likely, as the TCG2 for GB only features card up to Team Rocket. At the time the game takes place, only Pokemon up to 151 exist. Besides, a Team Rocket member wouldn't know what in blazes to do with an Unown...

It's the same as any Unown...40HP and Hidden Power. Though it's power helps out if you use Unown D, M, or N. It's power lets you remove 1 or all (not sure) damage counters from your Unowns when you play it.

Unown "R" has filed papers in district court.

Unown "R" would like herefore and forward like, be known as: "The Pokémon formerly known as Unown "R"".

Until this dispute is settled we will not be able to publish Unown "R".

Please keep tuned for further not quite interesting tidbits in this titanic struggle for identity!

Well, not all the unowns have 40 hp...X and B have 50...there are probably more, but I really don't care that much...cuz they're unowns.

I think I heard somewhere that the power reads something like:

(Don't ask...this may be way off...but this keeps popping into my head.)

Restore: When you play unown R from your hand, you may remove all damage counters from any of your pokemon with unown in their name.

I suppose this is what we should've all expected when WotC retained F. Lee Bailey as Unown R's attorney...
