Pokemon TCG Pocket just dropped

Put him in the Moltres Ex deck instead of Charizard Ex, it would be lethal as hell
I’ve tried this, works great, highly recommend throwing Dawn in there as well to move energy around freely.

2x Moltres Ex
2x Infernape Ex line
2x Dawn
2x Pokemon Communication
2x Pokeball
2x Leaf
2x Professor
1x Sabrina
1x Giovani

This will be your opponents point of view:

I'm pretty sure this Yanmega EX was specifically designed as a counter to Weavile/Darkrai EX. It only requires colorless energy. It takes 3 energy to attack and you discard one but you can pair it with Dialga or anything that generates energy to recharge it.

There are some great cards in this set. But i love how pokemon communication has made any deck with 2 stage evolutions more consistent.

I saw someone with this same deck but instead of Giovanni they used Rocky Helmet to put on Moltres. It makes them hesitate on attacking Moltres to avoid the chip damage and gives you more time to attach energies to your bench.

Yeah, that has to be one of the best cards in this entire expansion tbh. I put at least one of it in everything.

Sounds pretty good tbh. I’ll try that out.

Rumor mill based on datamines:

- Next (mythical island type) mini-set is releasing on February 28.

- Next major set (Spacetime Smackdown type) is releasing on April 30.


Might want to save your hourglasses accordingly.

If DCE was in the game it'd ABSOLUTELY annihilate.

I got my second Pachirisu so the time is now.

My first Dialga is immersive, just like my first Palkia. I'm up to... 4 EX now? after around 50 packs. Immersive Palkia, regular Palkia, immersive Dialga, and Infernape.

I want to build the Palkia deck but still need Cyrus x2 and a Giant Cape. I can afford all 3 with pack points but I guarantee as soon as I buy them I'll open up my next daily pack and get at least one of them.

Am I the only one terribly disappointed when I don't pull the normal card to complete my pokedex. Won't complain about it though

Same for me, but depends on what the card is. I’d be very happy with Darkrai, it’s a great card.

You should try this chip damage deck, it’s a lot of fun:

Greninja line x2
Darkrai EX x2 (1EX and 1 non-EX works fine as well)
Druddigon x2
Leaf x2
Professor x2
Pokeball x2
Pokemon Communication x1
Rocky Helmet x1
Cyrus x1
Dawn x1

Pulled the gold Palkia card. That's my 3rd Palkia. I got the immersive, the gold, and the regular. I still don't have Weavile, Darkrai, Yanmega, Mismagius, Gallade, Lickilicky, or Pachirisu yet. 3 Palkia, 1 Dialga (immersive), 1 Infernape.

Can't really use any new meta decks yet except for Palkia and if I want to do that I still need to buy some cards with pack points.

Only missing yanmega ex and gallade ex so far. Obviously don't have two copies of all the other EX but I can't complain about my 4 stars pulls

Trade tokens!

I need mawchamp ex and moltres ex.

Wigglytuff ex, zapdox ex, gyarados ex in multiple copies, if not ask. I like to keep two copies but I want to finish these EXs

I have a Machamp ex. Do you have something from the new Boosters?
 
Literally only good for the Premium Stuff and the monthly Promo. Otherwise its trash. Depends on how much you like "digital merchandise". Ill just sell this account at a later date.
Does being a premium member increase your odds of pulling better cards? It would be nice to open a extra pack each day regardless
