Hey, This comes out today. Anyone got a card list? I should have one in the post but that's not good enough! I wanna know if i just spent £9 on an alternate art Excadrill and Zoroark or whether it's awesome like the HGSS Trainer Kit.

Cheers muchly
 
The card list is on the trading card game online coding. If someone wants to dig into that, the information is there. If I remember correctly, BW1 Pidove is in there, but that's all I remember from memory
 
Really it's the trainers i'm curious about. HGSS Trainer Kit gave us both Collecter and Communication, which was silly good. If nothing else i will be chuffed about the Excadrill :D
 
Well it's been dispatched. If nobody else posts the list on here (and i REALLY hope they do) i will when i get it. Fingers crossed for tomorrow. And fingers crossed for 3 Catchers from my box. Only have 1 and need at least a playset.....
 
No Catchers. No Cheren. No Bianca. Yes Communication.

Sorry for the bad news. BTW, Cheren and Bianca were never confirmed.

EDIT: No Collector.

I don't even...Two totally random Purloin and Minccinos in deck one. At least the second deck doesn't have that problem... There aren't even any good trainers in the mess. Communication I guess but...
 
There are no Trainer-Supporters as well. Way to teach players about one of the most important classes of cards in the game...
 
I never understood the marketing genius behind these products.

Put Collector in them and they will sell much, much better. Or Candy, or Junk Arm, or I dont know, a playable Pokémon? I can understand that they do now want to print Catcher so as not to dissuade people from buying EP (though I doubt they even considered it) but this is ridiculous.

They have already proven that they do not much care for secondary market prices with the printing of League Promo versions of staple cards, so why not put these staple cards in the starters and kits as well? 2 DCE in these would make them more attractive, 2 DCE and 2 Collector a good deal, 2 DCE, 2 Collector and 2 Catcher would have them flying off the shelves faster than they could produce them. And yet they choose to hit only the "little kids" market segment. Again.

Marketing fail, once again.
