OK the official list has been posted on Pokebeach and the scans. Its several cards in the set that caught my eye that I know that will used for more than one purpose.

Lapras
Porygon 2
Claydol
Pachirisu

Those are the cards that will be used for setup and starters. I didnt see alot of archtype cards in the set,Wailord can be a staller,but attacking is iffy for 4 energy and only doing 60(No hope to counter Magmortar). Its alot of stuff that you ca have a cool idea for,but dont know how good they will be. Since the list has came out,what do you think you are gonna try??
 
My Top 10 (in no particular order)
  • Cresselia LvX
  • Darkrai
  • Pachirisu
  • Claydol
  • Lapras
  • Latios
  • Wailord
  • Amulet Coin
  • Premier Ball
  • Leftovers

I agree. Unlike MT and GE, this set seems to have cards that make already existing decks better, but dosn't seam to contain any cards that just scream "use me". (aka Magmortar, Galade, Feraligatr, Blissy)
 
I like Cresselia Lv.X, Palkia Lv.X, Darkrai Lv.X, Wailord, Porygon2, Claydol, Pachirisu, Premier Ball, Moonlight Stadium Amulet Coin, Blaziken, Swampert and Sceptile.
 
There are some cards I would like to use, but I know won't work, which is annoying. For example, I WANT to use Togekiss (ITS A FREAKIN ANGEL, CMON), but I know it isn't that good.
I like Pacharisu and the new Porygon line though.
 
I like Pachi, Claydol, and Felicity's Drawing. Thats really all it is so IMO very dissapointing set.

I Agree.Yea i mean the only thing that seems like a deck to mean is:

Sceptile
Wailord

but those wouldnt be strong in the meta to make a change.

PS. Wailord is better than I thought,its such a deck that most of the time the 4 nrg to attack dosent matter.
 
I am a huge fan of Volbeats and Skarmories. Does anyone have a scan of Volbeat GE and Skarmory GE??? Thanks?!?!
 
togekiss is a very good card. pokebody allows you to draw top ten cards and keep any energies and attach them to pokemon on your playing field. First time I used it got nine energies. That saved my game
 
I personally fell in love with Dialga Lv X the disruptive ability of it with a little luck is immense my current deck with him goes toe to toe with Gallade (save god starts) and goes 60/40 in it's favor with most other decks i've put it up against
 
Lapras would be so much better with Carry In for Amulet Coin if it weren't for Pachirisu. If I attach an Amulet Coin to Lapras, it gets Smash Shorted for 60, I lose the coin, and my opponent can see my hand. :frown:
 
Darkrai Lv. X is my biggest want from the set. I've got some solid ideas with it. Also, Blaziken, Sceptile, Wailord, and Arbok and Weezing. Team rocket is back!
