wasn't a happiny like this in MT?
well. pardon my french, but up to now, i think this promo set, officially stinks.
c'mon this is the one where they should have re-printed claydol or any other broken card from past or new sets, supporters mainly...a waste of card- paper...
i'm sorry....this has been one of the most anticipated pop sets, but i guess it didn't rise to the occassion, as always
well, it was most likely to be this way, anyway...

You have to realize too, that only a few cards have been released to the public from this set. There are still a handful of other rares, and uncommons, that we know nothing about.
And people are already upset about them. Not a shocker, right John?

Um, way to be negative. First off, Claydol shouldn't be reprinted and most likely won't be reprinted. If it was reprinted in P8, that would mean that it would be legal no matter what in the 09-10 season. That would be a poor choice, because it wouldn't dimish the need for Claydol, just make it worse. Roseanne's is a really good choice to be reprinted. It was most likely going to be rotated after this year so it keeps in it in the format for an additional year, which I would think for most people is a good thing.
Now, you also have to look at what the last few POP sets have had in them. This set has new cards and has an AMAZING trainer in it is much better than what we have had in the past.
They are just being negative. So far the set is better than P6 & P7 combined. Having a supporter that is getting 6+ on ebay being reprint in a POP set is a really good thing.
I disagree with you. There are a few people that I wouldn't have an issue opening packs. League Leaders who run league often don't have time to play. I wouldn't have an issue having them take the stuff they deserve for running the league at the beginning. However, that is just my opinion.

League leaders never have the right to open items before they can be received by their players at large.
Same with PTOs and new release product.
Sure, we are running the events, and get support for judging, but it does NOT entitle us to open the product early. Never.

I'm going to have to agree. If I were a league leader, I'd be more than happy to watch my players open them and make sure I had enough for a while before even touching the packs.
Especially since POP seems to have a shortage and wedon't know when we'll see more.

I see where you're coming from, but this creates an interesting problem. I don't need to know first thing this morning what's in this set, but the information needs to get disseminated at some point soon. Battle Roads start in less than a week, and if I showed up to a tournament to find somebody playing a card not listed in the Card-Dex, I'd be pretty displeased. (Imagine if it was something format-changing like Miasma Valley!) Hopefully PUI won't be keeping it a secret for that long... players shouldn't have to rely on leaks to find out what they'll be playing against.

I don't get why people keep mentioning miasma valley as a possibility for POP8.
It's going to be in Stormfront, obviously... what evidence is there to even remotely suggest that it'd be in pop 8?
The fact that high/low pressure systems were in a pop set?

I think it's highly unlikely that Miasma or anything as significant will show up in POP8, precisely because of the problem I described. I used it for example only because everybody else is. :tongue:

Hmmm I would have to disagree to this one, The stuff is for the league "players" not the league leader, owner oranyone else other than the players.
100% agree with this one.

I completely agree! The prizes are for the league players! Must be how people are able to sell sets of pop cards and multiple sets of badges on eBay.....

Is Roseannes Alt Art?

Agreed.
League leaders can ask PUI or the LD to keep some of the stuff which is left after the end of the season, but take prizes before the league and tournaments even have started?
Huh, Miasma Valley is format-changing?
Anyway, there is absolutely no reason to print this card (which is related to IFDS and to Dusknoir!) early. I'd rather think that the promo Dusknoir (which would really be format-changing imo) could be in POP-8, but if Heatran is 1/17 there isn't any room for this card.

Argh, this isn't about Miasma Valley. My point is that there is the potential for unhappiness (for players, judges, and TOs alike) if there are cards being played in BRs that only a few people know exist. We know there are cards in POP8 that have not yet been seen in English. For everybody's sanity, there really ought to be a Card-Dex posted ASAP.
