Happy Valentine's Day!

Luvdisc is kinda creepy. It wants to rendezvous with you on V-Day...

Other starters are generally better, but this thing was a beast for me in the prerelease (I started with it and Amulet Coin EVERY GAME!).
 
This comination you mention, PenguinMaster - STILL GET BEATEN TO DEATH BY A PACHIRISU... Ahahahahaha

Yeah, that combination is sooo goood...can draw up to 5 in one turn is nasty.
 
in the PR it was ok but still got beaten by my Igglybuff with Amulet coin as a starter.

Even on Valentine's Day, Luvdisc still stinks
 
The thing is... well, it's only good on Valentine's Day. It really is not good. MAYBE in decks with like 20 Pokemon, but, that's really it, and Pachi gets the win.

5/10 on every day except Valentine's Day.
10/10 on Valentine's Day.
 
Some synergy with PokeNav, other than that pretty random.

6.5/10

Edit: Ok, I raise by half point for ability to T1 OHKO Magmar with Str. Charm and Lake Boundary. Lol.
 
I'll give it a 30958398232/10 on valentine's day - you'll always win whoever you play against with this card on valentine's day. I run a whole 8 of them in my deck :thumb:
 
[Rendevous is reminiscent of Mary's Request, where you draw for one and two more for a specific condition. You draw one card, hope it is a Pokémon, put it in your hand, and draw two more cards.

Synchro Dance deals ten base damage. It is consistent on matching attached Energy with the Defending Pokémon.

Modified: 5/10
Limited: 7/10
Fun: 4/10
 
What better Pokemon to celebrate Valentine's Day than Luvdisc, eh?

Luvdisc is a fairly solid base Pokemon, meant to be used as a starter. 60 HP is common, +10 Weakness to Lightning is to be expected, no Resistance, and 1 Retreat Cost. Rendezvous (lol @ people trying to pronounce it correctly) is a decent attack and cheap for 1 Colorless Energy; you get to draw a card, and if it's a Pokemon card, you get to draw 2 more cards. Synchro Dance is also good for 1 Water Energy, having the potential to do 30 damage if Luvdisc and the Defending Pokemon have the same number of Energy (10 otherwise).

Modified - 4/10 (Ok starter, but there are many better options for starters. Could be funny in a Valentine's Day-themed deck or something)
Limited - 10/10 (Love this card here. Odds that you will get a Pokemon are excellent since half your deck should usually be Pokemon, so that's almost a free 3 cards with Rendezvous)
Unlimited - 1/10 (Fails when comapred to other more useful Luvdisc, which aren't played anyways)
