If evolutions are played as basic Pokémon, then they are basic Pokémon. Or at least they used to be, back when cards that directly placed evolutions on your bench used to specify that. At the moment, I'm not sure if e.g. Shedinja can use prism and eviolite if benched by cast-off shell. Older...

I think reprinting catcher is a great decision. It's a card that is overpriced and it's an entry barrier for players who want to enter the game. This should alleviate that problem. Aside from that, like many have said before, catcher is a necessary card as long as overpowered benchsitters...

Charizard should have the requirement to be active for that ability to be reasonable. For example, a tyranitar from another thread. Tyranitar :fighting: Stage 2 Pokémon, 170 HP Ability: Dark Domination As long as this Pokémon is your Active Pokémon, if the Defending Pokémon is a basic...

Here's some of mine. Trying to make them strong enough to complete with current Pokémon EX. Larvitar :fighting: Basic Pokémon, 80 HP ( ) Mountain Bite Discard your hand and draw 6 cards. :colorless: Chip Away 20 This attack's damage isn't affected by Weakness, Resistance or any other...

Sorry for double post. Reserving this space because the first post (20 799 words, 113 pages in Word) is getting alarmingly heavy to edit. edit: Wiped everything as connection was lost while editing. All megalo cannon gone. Oops. Some BW Black Star Promos BW #076 Electrode The official card...

' Well, you are the professor so you should know the interpretations of wordings inside out and I have no reason to doubt if you say that. But just for the sake of my learning, what is this 'etc.' wolf was referring to? What exactly would change? The only things I can think of, other than...

I think I get the idea of this card, but the wording is unclear. Players already attach up to one Energy per turn. All other Energy attachment comes from abilities, attacks and trainers. I'd write it: Neither player can use attacks, Abilities or Trainers to attach Energy from their discard...

Evolutions generally would be more viable. After all, they lose a limitation. But it's not a working solution for various reasons. For one, it would break some current cards, you'd get some pretty mean T1 plays with Blastoise, or you can set up a lock before your opponent's first turn. But...

I said Stage 2 for various reasons I'll explain later. Like I said, Stage 2 on its own doesn't mean anything. Blastoise is the easiest to use and most boring card in the format, yet obscenely powerful. Garchomp is boring since the Dragon Call choices are always obvious and that deck's strategies...

Eelektrik with Rayquaza is the only one of those decks that involves limitations that force diverse decision-making elements compared to the rest. The others are all about spam. And Snorlax/Giratina is a terrible example of diversity, it's a big basics deck with different big basics and...

I don't think rotation would do any good for the game at this point. There's two ways rotating sets out has a chance of improving diversity, neither of them works at the moment: 1) Rotation can change the game right upon taking effect if it gets rid of cards that dominate other cards or even...

That's true, but I think it's more accurate to say the drawback becomes insignificant because it doesn't come into effect at all, rather than mistimed. I don't see the logic of making EX stronger than Stage 2 Pokémon. In the current card design the lower stages of evolution are, with just a...

First of all, I haven't bought the product (I was actually half-tempted to buy it, but the flaws of the actual card game, regardless of the way it is marketed and packaged, kept me from buying it). My feedback is based on the product description. For that reason, I obviously can't comment on the...

Plasma Freeze done! Doing other cards occasionally and on request once I'm done with this set. My goal is to give all recent and upcoming cards in the modified format a makeover that would make them more useful, or at least more fun to play with or against. I stick to the current card model...

I should probably be glad the next sets seem to be at least trying or pretending to do something, but it's so little it doesn't really help. Plasma Freeze and Megalo Cannon follow the same old principle; a couple of EX cards are made much stronger than they need to be to make sure the expansion...
