When the format becomes Black and White-onward (Sept 1st), the only modified legal reprints should be a few Trainer-Items. Switch, Energy Switch, Energy Search, Exp. All, Potion, Pluspower, Full Heal, Energy Retrieval, Pokéball, Pokemon Communication, Revive, Rare Candy, and Super Scoop Up are the only legal cards pre-BW, since they have reprints in BW-on. I don't believe there are any Pokemon that fit the bill.
 
ugh why cant this game just have a banlist... Im gonna go play Vanguard now.

Really? Because I think probably the most beautiful thing about this game is since Wizards has left, Pokémon has never resorted to simply banning one broken card. Rotating sets is just a healthier way to do it. If you have to ban cards to balance the format (YGO?) it shows there is a flaw in your card design. Actually, it shows that there are flaws in your card designs every 6 months. Pokémon should not just step in and micromanage the format, and it's quite impressive they haven't really done that.

This rotation btw was kind of obvious, because when there's been a template change in cards it's ended up that way (RS-on, HL-on, DP-on, HS-on). I liked CoL, but no Smeargle is good for the format I guess.
 
In case no one caught this, there are two McDonalds sets, each with different set symbols. The symbol at the Pokemon.com website announcement only shows the earlier set symbol. My decklist program accounts for both sets.

Steve, is this true of your currently posted version? When I enter via the purple button, the creator shows only the old set symbol, and the HS-on sets. (Or maybe I'm doing it wrong, I dunno.)

That has been fixed and will migrate to the live site shortly for the new season.
