Pokémon TCG: Sword and Shield—Brilliant Stars

Undaunted Sleeves and Promo Revealed

This is the first time I've gotten REALLY excited about the sleeves and the promo. Both are awfully sexyyyyyy, I hope they have great quality!
 
My wife will like these new sleeves, and I'm liking Leafeon already!

That reminds me, what was the quality like for ERS/UL sleeves?

About like the Garchomp sleeves. They easily separate if you chemmy shuffle. If you do a sideways riffle shuffle they fare ok.
 
yea im hoping those sleeves dont totally suck like the garchomp ones. glad to have my two favorite pokemon on the same sleeves :) making sure i stock up. UD should be a good set, finally getting the rest of legends. i cant wait for the PR....when is it btw?
 
Few of my favorite pokeymans as sleeves, sweet.
Leafeon is like Ariados UF in the past, very small energycosts for special conditions abusing attacks. I would love if Flariados will be reborn :3
 
I hate all these kiddy sleeves.
I would never use them.

I like my plain solid colour sleeves.
I wished they weren't just plain, and had some design on it...
but the problem is, every company messes it up by either putting some wacked out fantasy holo dragon,
some random skull, or wizard, or they put pokemon silhouettes on it.

If those are my options, then plain solid colour is the best there is.

Uh... it's a Pokémon event. Do you REALLY expect the commemorative sleeves to not be Pokémon themed... maybe not even a WEE bit?

For what it's worth, though, the sleeves look good, and I really like the choice of promo. Semi-playable... again! Good trend.
 
Ugh, purple sleeves? Well, at least they picked good pokemon. I'm not crazy about the Leafeon card though.

Honestly, I liked the HGSS Unleashed Sleeves better. They were blue. 'Nuff said. And The Blastoise card ruled.
 
Beautiful <3

Leafeon is awesome, nice to get playable promos. And the sleeves are cool as well, if they have a decent quality these might be the first ones I ever use.
 
Can anybody make out the number on Leafeon? It's smudged beyond all recognition in that pic.

I love Eeveons. I hate the Viqueens and everything associated with them. I'm torn. Can we get some nice Orange on Navy Blue sleeves at some point to make up for this? Or some Maize on Navy Blue to make up for the Dusknoir affront a couple years ago? Thx!

Seriously, this looks cool. Hopefully, I'll get enough to play with ^_^

90 cards is pretty small for a set. Smallest set in Nintendo's history?

It should actually end up being 91... they don't typically count the secret rare(s) in the announcement. In any case, yes, it's the smallest Nintendo set. LM is the closest at 93.

I think it might be......
Although the smallest set ever is either Fossil or Jungle(can't remember)
Also the ERS/UL sleeves were okayish, still pretty bad.
I hope these are the same quality as the MD sleeves or the DP sleeves.

I can read it.
Here you go:

C Misasma Wind 50x
Does 50 damage times the number of Special Conditions affecting the Defending Pokemon.

G Soothing Scent 30
The Defending Pokemon is now Asleep
 
Side Note:
PUI or TPCi

Nntendo never printed the cards. They distributed them for a year or two after dropping WotC, but it was always the Pokemon company producing the cards and sets after WotC.

I know this seems minor since Nintendo is a part owner of the Pokemon Company, but I know that it bothers them when Nintendo gets the "credit".
