Mothim is uncommon, it's official scan has been revealed... it's going to be the pre-release promo. Also, does anyone else think that Rotom will be rarer than on that list? I'll be happy if its NOT, I got some good plans for that lil' guy

Look at it's scan a lot closer, I'm 90% sure it's a rare, they've done rares as promos before so it is very possible...
 
Clefable, Aerodactyl, Dark Gyarados, and Misty's Seadra would beg to differ ... in fact, they are all holographic rares in their respective sets.

Perhaps my grammar was confusing.
I'm fully aware that Wizards cards were holos. What I meant by my sentence was "since Nintendo took over", as in, everything after the wizards days.
I believe my grammar was still correct, but I suppose the misunderstanding is totally understandable.

EDIT: Regardless, WPM proved my statement wrong with his mention of Armaldo SS anyways.
I'm pretty sure they've all been uncommons since that, though.
 
I for one really hope there won't be TWO holo Manaphy in the set... that would be extremely lame. But since one of them appears to have some sort of a title, it's a pretty safe bet we won't have it.
 
I meant because that it will evolve from mysterious and helix fossil. I wanted to know if you can only candy mysterious into the old one and the helix into the new one.
Sorry for the confusion.

Ah, a truly excellent question. I imagine it will be able to evolve from either regardless, but neither ruling would suprise me.
 
That's really pretty shocking. The only way I could see that working is if Aerodactyl was made a holo and Dusknoir (assuming we get it) was made a rare. So this is what I'm guessing the first 22 cards will be:

1. Aerodactyl (DP4)
2. Cresselia (PRO)
3. Darkrai (PRO)
4. Dialga (PRO)
5. Glaceon (DP4)
6. Kabutops (DP4)
7. Leafeon (DP4)
8. Lucario (PRO)
9. Manaphy (PRO)
10. Mewtwo (DP4)
11. Palkia (PRO)
12. Phione (DP4)
13. Rhypherior (DP) (for lv. X)
14. Skuntank (DP) (for promo stunky)
15. Articuno (DP4)
16. Dusknoir (PRO)
17. Empoleon (E08)
18. Espeon (DP4)
19. Flareon (DP4)
20. Garchomp (MT)
21. Glaceon (PRO)
22. Infernape (E08)

What does everyone else think?

I think there would be more of a chance that we'd see a few cards from DP5 in the set.

Omanyte says it evolves from Helix Fossil and Kabuto says it evolves from Dome Fossil. I would be willing to bet that you must evolve from those and not Mysterious Fossil.
 
Or if, as I've been saying for months now, there are English-first cards in the set.

I think there will be some new ones too, like Garchomp perhaps. But I don't know what new holo cards might possibly come before Cresselia. Any ideas?

Speaking of that, the only holo I know of from DP5 that could come before Cresselia is Bellossom. That would also mean that we'd get 2 oddishes, 2 glooms, and a vileplume. I'm not so sure if this relatively small set would have 6% of its cards coming from one line in DP5 when it's supposed to be promos, entry pack, and DP4 cards. But who knows?
