Nope

Black/White (BW)
Red Collection (NVI)
Hail Blizard/Psycho Drive (NEX)
Dark Rush (DEX)
Dragon Blade/Dragon Blast (DRX)
Cold Flare/Freeze Blast (BW6)
Plasma Gale (BW7)

EPO was kinda a filler set with cards from everywhere.

What I mean it's going to be our bw7 since dragons exalted is considered bw6 by actual set ration in English.
 
Cold Flare translations added! It's six in the morning (after an all-nigher), so if you find any errors or weird wording, please let us know so we can correct them. Freeze Bolt is coming up next!
 
Just confused me until I understood what happened =) Thanks for the scans, great set, reading the translations now :D

WPM, the computer search ahs a 1 on it, are you sure it gets 2 cards?
 
Apparently the Cresselia translation is wrong and it only heals itself.
 
Toxicroak maybe hurts Mewtwo EX, being able to OHKO it (if it doesn't have eviolite) after a KO?

Swoobat + Gardevior + EXP Share = new Durant?

Scizor = anti-EX

Can you place another Basic on Ditto after he's transformed into a basic already? If so, that's wild.

Stoutland = support denial = reason for bicycle

Yeah, Computer Search is looking like it would only grab 1, as Yoshi points out. Any light to shed on this?
 
Ditto seems like a total waste of deck space, 2 cards to play a basic from your hand seems ridiculously dumb. If he made a copy of a benched pokemon or even an opponents basic he would be awesome.

Base set Blastoise for the win. Keldeo EX, Blastoise and Shaymin UD would have been a great combo.

Imagine putting a Darkrai EX on him. Then when the opposing Terrakion EX comes out, you put a Kyogre EX on the Darkrai EX (if it works like that). That's not so useless, right?

Ditto is awesome, you can prepare a Pokémon before the opponent knows what it actually is. And if it is ruled like similar cards in the past, you can play Ditto, wait a turn, then put a basic on it and immediately evolve or rare candy it.

Sure you can change that after you transformed it? Then it's even better. =)
 
I just realized something...

Ditto is the rebirth of 1-0-1 lines, just play down 2 dittos, then transform one of them into ther basic and play down your candy :D
 
Quick breakdowns. Also, Joltik and Galvantula are messed up. Joltik has an [E] energy cost and Galv is not fully translated.

Tangrowth: Power Creep much? 20x wasn't enough so they bump to 30x. No grass energy excell as of now so forgetable.
Celebi: Situational as all get out but LOL PASSING WIND.
Levanny: Stage 2 Umbreon? no thanks
Liligant: Decent addition to other Liligants. Draw power is ok, but nothing special.
Camerupt: Too heavy an energy cost.
Blastoise: Keldeo is now good and Rain Dance is never a bad thing.
Golduck: Cute card. Can annoy some big retreat cost Pokes and one shot Ho-oh/Entei/Groudon ex in one shot, but meh
Swanna: Psyduck and Ducklett sharing a set is well worth this card sucking.
Keldeo: All up on Blastoise's shell, nice artwork.
Electivire: A worse Kyurem with less hp. May work with Eelektrik and Dusknoir.
Galvantula: Not fully trasnlated!
Dusknoir: What's up with 4 energy attacks in this format? Ability is good, but we'll have to wait and see how good.
Toxicroak: Ooooooh. A good Mewtwo revenge killer that isn't Mewtwo. Shame Sigilyph will exsist before him, but you never know.
Swoobat: OOOOOOH. This thing is GOOD. Swoobat/Gardevoir/Mew ex with Ether/Exp Share could be crazy good! Time to get shiny Gardies!
Sandslash: Why is this thing Excadrill exactly? -_- Sandslash is the OG and deserves more respect.
Solrock: No
Conkeldurr: They really like to make these guys a cut below playable. Shame.
Crustle: Made for that gold potion. Energy cost is bad but i kinda like him,
Scizor: Meh. Ex protection but at the cost of general suckatude.
Skarmory: Kinda bad but i like it.
White Kyurem ex: Been discussed.
Ditto: I....I literally don't understand what this does. I can just play basics on my bench normally. It will depend how much Ditto is "treated as" that Pokemon i guess.
Dunsparce: Well hello there. No damage from Abilities? That's new and interesting. SHame it does 10 damage, but decent draw support that isnt Virizion. Except there is Virizion. So no.
Exploud: YES YES YES YES YES YES. This screams (literally) "screw you Black Kyurem!" He can discard the Spec Item, or one shot him even with it. Round just got meta.
Delcatty: Same as it ever is. But, it is technically energy acceleration for Fighting deck and that Swoobat list i mentioned earlier could find use for it too.
Watchog: Possibly best art ever. I love how he is starring angirly at his own name. Horrible card, but i want lots of RH's of this guy for fun.
Stoutland: Looks like someone's tired or playing around. Vileplume's perfect pet, come just too late for its own good. With access to much better Lilipups and Herdiers, and Darkrai to give it free retreat, this guy is definately viable.
Bicycle: I hate trainer based draw. Horrible for the game. Obviously an amazing card.
EtherL UGGGH. Broken trainers broken.
Skyla: Much better with ACE Spec stuff, but still meh.
Asperita: I thought it was an attack too at first haha. Will be good in monocolor Round (Exploud and Wiggly) and good with Stoutland.
Computer Search: The obvious one of. Looks like the Twins got their hands on an Ultra Ball before they left.
Crystal Edge: Meh, discussed.
Cresselia: No regular art yet. But really, horrrrrible attack, decent ability. Iono.
Bianca: YAY
Terrakion?: WHy? They already gave it a FA. Should've been used for something that needs swag, like shiyn Emolga/Garchomp/Sammurott/Sigilpyh/Eel.
Altaria: Pretty :3
 
But then you realize one of the pieces is in your prizes. 1-1 and 1-0-1 lines are bad and ditto doesn't change that.
 
If you can evolve the basic the same turn it is put down with Ditto then yes it is amazing. I can't see them letting you use Ditto's ability once he has been transformed. It would be like letting an evolved pokemon use an ability on its previous stage.

1-0-1 lines are techs, you don't need them for your deck to run. Don't know how long you have been playing, but 1-0-1 lines were good even before Azelf was released. The only reason why they are bad right now is the new Rare Candy rule, combined with Catcher-
 
Also looks like Terrakion will be here for another 2 formats now. I was expecting a Shiny of him at some point since the logical rotation for 2013-2014 will be to NDE.
