Team Magma Starter deck list

[pokemon_midori]

Duh, I got a Holo Walrein in my first booster and a Holo Groudon in my second one.
Though my third one is very disappointing: A Seviper.

and what rares did you get in the first two?

many people dont seem to notice that nowadays you still get a rare non holo EVEN if you get a holo, and im NOT talking about reverse holos btw.

and what is this about nonholo magma's grouodn? that seems VERY cheap of nintendo, that just makes the set odd. a random nonholo in the middle of a set that is only in decks? thats awful....

btw walrein is cool, i like walrein.

This statement is true regarding EX: Ruby & Saphire, EX: Sandstorm, and EX: Dragon.

But with the latest set, EX: TM vs TA, Nintendo has again changed how cards are packaged in the packs.

In TM vs TM, the holo or holo-ex card REPLACES the rare in 1:3 packs.

So, in a box of 36 boosters, you'll generally get 12 holos (9 holos and 3 holo-ex) and 24 rares. You'll always get 36 Reverse Holos (varied rarities), 72 uncommons, and 180 commons, for a total of 324 cards.

I can even spell it more out, but will know more specific after the weekend.

Reverse foil 4x copie of Holo, 4x copie of Rare, 6 x copie of uncommon and 22 x copie of a common.
Good luck with collecting.

reverses don't seem to be equally likely. After 6 boxes I'm still missing 4 of the reverses of the holo-foils. Very fed up with cacturne!

Grrrrrrrrr, i am still badgering my dad to take 5 minutes during his lunch break to go and see if there are any TAVMA booster packs in London where he works.

Seems like that has happened before...
Usually at least one or two of the reverse holo are much harder to get.

Perhaps, it helps a lot if all your boxes do not come from the same source.

 

[PokePop]

I don't think PUI kept the "equal-rarity" of all reverse holos that WotC had. I think they do have a rarity scheme for RHs similar to the regular cards.

Well theres both the decklists for both Team Aqua and Team Magma decks. You can see that they both equal out each other, its your choice on which Team you like more. Its cool how they added those Holos in the decks that go perfect with it. Well, choose wisely because the Team Aqua and Team Magma battles have begun!

Actually, the holo in each deck is not 'random' - it is always the same holo (Aggron and Walrein, deck depending). There is no 'random' holo or RH, as there are exactly 60 cards in each. Also, the Kyogre and Groudon are special non-holo versions (found only in the theme decks) of the holo #s.

I took out the code /code tags - it should work better now !

 

[Physics Squirrel]

They should've put Archie and/or Aqua Energy in the decks.
