Three brand new TCG products have just been revealed, being the Legacy Evolution Pin Collection, Legendary Battle Decks (Ho-oh & Lugia) and the Collector’s Pin 3-Packs (Entei, Raikou, or Suicune). The Legacy Evolution Pin Collection will include a Steelix EX, 5 foil cards (Slowking, Politoed, Blissey, Crobat, and Bellossom), 5 Booster Packs, a Crobat pin, and a code card for the TCGO. Picking up either of the decks will net you a standard 60 cards along with a metallic coin, play mat and damage counters. The Collector’s Pin 3-Packs come with 3 Booster Packs and a pin based on which blister you chose. No mention of a TCGO card in the blisters.
It should be noted that the Steelix EX is a direct reprint from Steam Siege as we’ve seen in various other boxes such as the Gengar or Charizard EX boxes. Also, the TCG packs shown in the picture are very likely to change as most reveal pictures do not match the actual product.
All three are set for release in May, with the Legacy Evolution and Collector’s Pin packs being slated for the 5th.
What are your thoughts on the products? They seem to be building off of Gen-2 hype from Pokemon GO. Do you guys agree?
Ugh…….My wallet hates me, but my addiction loves this more than the hate. So much money to spend lol
I only collect TCG for the awesome art on cards lol
I thought I was the only one XD
i usually just shoplift like 5 packs of cards from Toys R Us a week
but they haven’t stocked booster packs for Sun and Moon for some odd reason
You keep saying you have loads of money yet you steal stuff?
how do you think i have so much money
That’s it, I’m calling Officer Jenny.
Klepto.
you should’ve seen all the things i’ve pilfered over the years
OMF NOBODY TOLD ME YOU CAN BUY A HOUSE
Yeah you can, but its kind of a waste of money.
Screw that i have like 11k rupees
Also i’m absolutely positive those carpenters are fornicating in my living room
well i bought every little thing for my House
now i’m gonna painstakingly hunt down materials to remake all the champion gear and display them there
Just had the glorious experience of getting beaten by a trash talker who won literally because they got BOOSTS OFF FUCKING ANCIENT POWER THREE TIMES!
I would’ve blown my stack if that kinda BS happened to me
Best of all? I had Araquanid in the back and this guy was using a fucking Camerupt
… and it crit that
I got crit 14 times in one 23 turn match… He had a few crit boosting items on like one mon… BUT 14 TURNS!!!!
Nobody… NOBODY can claim having worse luck than that shit
I’m starting to think my Garden Snail Grass starter isn’t working now to the boules of the internet to find a suitable bipedal Grass starter to replace it then to work on my second set of designs to improve on the other two
And I got my regional rodent done it’s a Meadow Vole
Where is everybody? It’s only 4:00 (In my area at least)
i’m here
oh and did you see my post on your discus channel?
About the Tublappa Evolution and the stress yo-kai?
yes that
Yeah I wonder what their names will be in English that Tublappa Evolution is awesome though
yeah but here’s the other yokai in the anime (i think he wanted a romantic partner in the episode)
https://youtu.be/6dD6PuCrH4k?t=13m4s
so i’m doing this sidequest for Breath of the Wild and some little girl is upset that garbage is ruining her plant water, but the garbage is organic fruit waste IE Melon Rinds
now ignoring sidequest rules and regulations where the quest giver is always right but wouldn’t that be a free source of compost which gives soil more nutrition and promotes better growth?
just a thought
one summer i gotta get into the compost game
Its okay, you can get the Thunder Helm for it and some other weird quests. Is that what you are doing it for?
Well I’m on a new Pokemon for my region this one I can be very creative with it’s rarity being so high
A Sumatran rabbit they have only been spotted five times in history it’s the rarest rabbit in history and now I can make a Pokemon of it
they look like chipmunks
Nah more like a regular rabbit of what I see
I’m still gonna make one it will be a ghost type as for being very rarely seen making it kind of Phantom like hence the type
I had a feeling it would be ghost…
which brings me to my next venture
a Ghost/Flying Northern Goshawk
https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/7e/31/b4/7e31b47a07340cafb461b0a05d12df03.jpg
Oooo I love it’s eyes
it just screams night time forest hunter
Could be Ghost/Normal.
-/ (O0O) – I just got an idea for my Grass type Starter… A Bipedal Jaguar
oh cool idea that would be cool for a starter.
Thanks I had the thought when staring at jungle cats I feel
Starts as an Ocelot that evolves to a Jaguar
cool but is it only grass type?
The first stage yes I don’t have a second type for it’s final though I felt maybe Dark
maybe…grass/electric because those things are fast.
Hmm that sounds good to me
It would have some pretty great coverage in battle with that typing
It does sound good cause then the trio would be
Grass/Electric, Fire/(Rock, Steel, or Ground) and Water/Dragon
can you see my change?
Yep I see it looks neat
Is the water/Dragon by chance a sea slug?
Nope a Basilisk aka: The lizard that runs on water
Oh cool
Orchilot (Orchid + Ocelot).
That sounds very interesting
Thanks
Junguar
yeah or jagrass as the starter.
iv’e changed (again)
Oh right did you beat the game yet? I’d kinda like Watermelonyan and Flamurice back
Y’know… I never actually bring it up, but I love the Borderlands series so damn much….
There’s a mission in one of the games where you need to kill an earworm…. basically a really catchy song…. and you LITERALLY NEED TO KILL A PHYSICAL EMBODIMENT OF THE SONG
And the producers of the game made their own song LITERALLY FOR THE SAKE OF BEING CATCHY
and it worked…. it’s catchy as all hell
OMG IT’S LITERALLY DRILLING INTO MY HEAD
I had this coming, I really did
The only thing I know about borderlands is this scene
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EEkybsx2kB8
And I love it
That? That was from a spin off, the WHOLE SERIES IS FULL OF SHIT LIKE THIS
There is a sidequest to literally shoot someone in the face… The guy’s name? Face McShooty
My favorite sidequest of course being the one I mentioned above
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a62vbECDL_4
Here’s the actual sidequest
And the catchy song if you don’t have the time to watch the whole thing
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fm6BXnVV-S8
Oh God this is wonderful, or should I say borderful
It really is XD
Which did you watch? The song or mission? XD
Both…….. at the same time
Wonderous XD
Always the stalling
Taunt them then?
None of that works on these, I’m losing way way way too much to op Pokemon that doesn’t belong in this tier
What is it that Taunt or Knock Off can’t fix? Afaik the tiers are still not fully worked out.
You try getting toxic orbs off a Gliscor
I lost to like 5 of them today
Hey Gliscore is a good competitor thats just fact
Oh please it’s just sitting around behind a sub and spamming roost
Should have Earthquake too
Araquanid, Ice types, any bulky water…..
Doesn’t mean its not a good fighter
True
Its like Weavile easy to take down, but a good fighter anyway
Just like RU Hoopa…
Still a good UU mon……
I miss the times when it was in OU ;-;
Remember when Hawlucha was BL and not at risk to dropping into NU?
I miss when we just had Bank OU, Ubers, regular Ubers and Sun and Moon OU
When I was the only one using Araquanid and I would basically win matches with it every single time cause no one expected it
Lemme guess, you aren’t playing RU?
UU
See, RU has none of these issues besides Mantine
See this is why I hate Showdown now since Bank there are like 40 f*cking tiers you can throw things in and everything gets subject tested or people just say its stupid where it is
RU is the best tier rn, just saying. Easily the most balanced minus the two bullshitters
(Kyurem, Crawdaunt)
Kyurem has hit a new low, it’s called RU
But seriously why is it in RU now
It really doesn’t belong, besides Lucario, CB Leech life araq, and certain scarfers, nothing kills it
Lucario is in RU now?!?! And galvantula?!?!
Atleast the chandelier is still in UU, I was worried that it could drop to RU
Yep, they are
Galv actually seems to work completely fine. I think it honestly feel pretty healthy.
Lucario is a must until certain mons (The two cancer mons, especially crawdaunt) leave
Because smogon are a bunch of mental over privileged twats who just can’t make a non legends ladder
Why competitive play about now is absolute BS too many tiers and none are what we need
Competitive Pokemon – 7.8/10
“too many tiers”
We need
-Legend Tier (Can have all but Mythicals)
-Full tier (Everything)
-Basic Tier (all Stage ones and Stand alones only (no Legendaries though)
-Regular tier (All but Mythical and Legendaries) *may have like three branch tiers with it
But no we have 40 some sh*t tiers that just cause more f*cking problems for everyone
And only those its sweet and simple and perfect
And the mongaloids on showdown are too stubborn to go for a new system
i asked why Latias was UU because somebody said because nobody uses it, and they’ve been using Latias since the damn thing came out
Oh tier is basically “full tier” tho and what about LC…
What is LC
Little Cup which is fucked up too
Mienfoo and Abra dominate and they don’t limit Evolites
So the first Evolutions only?
yes, but they have to always have first evos (Yet they still let Onix in no problem yet they ban Tangela)
the system is so broken
F*ck showdown now how can you do that
they are eediots
LC used to be fun idea but then it got tainted by just using the same old shit and variety and fun got shunted in favor of generic cold tiers
Dwebble is my main LC
Yeah it should be where everything has the upper hand not just the same 10
nope because its literally
Mienfoo
Abra
Pineco or Ferroseed
the rest is just filler
Sounds crappy I dislike most of them
A tier reserved only for pre evolutions
So pretty much what I called basic tier?
sorta or just cute cup
In LC you can’t have stand alone mons
Oh yeah probably get rid of them for M-Kang would dominate
it’s just so frustrating,
Exactly
Smogon lists Gyarados and Arcanine as Araquanid checks and says it only has a single viable set.. and it’s vgc only…
To be honest? Araquanid can easily beat Arc and counter Gyara as long as it doesn’t crit. If you time a lunge right, you cripple dos.
And Araquanid actually does have some variety, believe it or not
Way to go Smogon, listing all of the matchups I see as easy kills for Araq as checks, quality good work
Isn’t it because of intimidate mainly?
Yeah, but in all honesty? It’s not all that effective. I mean with AV Araquanid hits Gyra for like a clean 30 percent with liquitation
Can we point out how Beedrill is OU literally just because it kills the tapus?
Mega Beedrill. Given how they are on most teams I guess it makes sense.
My child M-beedrill killing those stupid Hawaiian gods <3
Basically XD
not unless Tapu Lele outspeeds it via Scarf and fries is with Psychic….
Wait does that speed bracket work? I’m pretty sure Mega Bee has higher speed
I wonder if we’ll ever get the gen 5 gems back. Or will Z-Crystals serve as a full replacement.
i guess they wanted the z-crystals more because they where like the gems (but i’m guessing better??)
Does anyone have like a signature Pokemon they always use on Showdown? Or like a signature team you use?
um i play hackmons sooo whatever mons
Ok… In that case, you have some unique sets you use then with a certain Pokemon?
mewtwo y with prismatic lazer,psyshock,moonblast,and nasty plot
Ooo you should try Slaking with Huge power and chople berry, or Wonder Guard, Burn up Arcanine, or Sturdy Shedinja
um in balanced hackmons i can’t put wonder gaurd on anything except for shedinja
Oh you should still do those other two though
here’s my mega mewtwo y set.

Water Bubble Primal Kyogre
OH YEAH GOOD IDEA heheheh
With Water Spout, and holding a Splash Plate
oh yeah now that would work perfectly IF the opponent doesn’t have desolate land or water absorb
Eh don’t worry about it, you’ll prob take out most of the team anyway
alrighty then off to showdown i gooo
Choice specs or waterium Z
I almost always (very few exceptions) use Weavile
really just boils down to favorites,
but some of those include
Excadrill
Darmanitan
Garchomp
M. Aerodactyl
Golisopod
Dwebble
I had no idea you used Darmanitan, what’s the set you use for it?
Scarf all out demolisher
i run it during my Fire Mono team and SHOOT DOGGY Darmanitan under the Sun really fucking hurts anything that doesn’t resist fire
Its a very quick mon for good measures
Must be really satisfying after sweeping a team with it
Araquanid
So I just did a Random Battle, and a Nihilego (with a set for setting up hazards) saved my ass and took out the other guy’s 4 Pokemon. What.
man i’m spending like 50k rupees a week
i know its pretend money but i can’t help but penny pinch
um…

Why is that Incineroar there?
why not have incineroar (he’s a special attacker)
CAUSE IT’S HIDEOUS
that’s why i named it dan habiki.
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/09a300cf9fcd3186a48123703cbe560db7fb70c0ede2dae19bffb13dcf0a1d39.gif
It’s a poor excuse for a pokemon
might be a “poor” excuse but does it really matter when it’s design is perfect?
It’s design is complete trash
yeah and togedemaru is pure shit
Don’t dick on Toge
(squints) i don’t CARE i actually think that the pikachu line and marril lines are better than those PIKACLONES (except for emolga she’s still cool)
I like all but Emolga and thats only for Elesa’s trolling
yeah i like them all (sorta) equeally
Yeah except I enjoy Plusle and Minun alot
yeah and i like calling plusle mas and minun menos
you know what mas and menos mean right?
Yeah its Plus and Minus in Spanish and the name of a duo of Super hero’s
yeah i know that but i name my plusle and minun because of the heros (because ther abilitys go together)
https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/9946bd85b03bb7ccd6731a4145cdf5f45603f50b27a0b2341475d9d81cdec20c.jpg

https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1b7655cabc4f51fb0a0a938144825dc6ec87c710781327b59d9d7754c9380de0.png
i spent all day on Breath of the Wild’s Hyrule Compendium….i feel either extremely ashamed or proud…..
I finally took on death mountain and Rudania. Only Vah Naboris left now.
good luck, that one is the hardest
Good thing I saved it for last then

Is that thing in Nihilego supposed to be pikachu?
Also that makes Guzzlord look cool.
it’s supposed to demonstrate how parasitic Nihilego can be by absorbing pokemon
And Guzzlord’s one of my favorite Ultra Beasts, i can’t wait to see the movie use them, i have a Hunch that either Lillie will be the main focus point with Nihilego or Ash bonding with a wayward Kartana
Kartana is my favorite by far. Second is probably Nihilego or Xurkitree.
NIHILEGO LOOKS SO COOOL
best beast
http://img15.deviantart.net/1158/i/2016/336/9/7/four_whole_pheromosas_by_talbyt-daojw65.png
dont argue.
I want to snap her neck like the twig she is!!!!!
yes she is best FEMALE beast but buzzswole is best MALE beast
They are agender alien beasts
yeah and the crystal gems are agender but use female pronouns
Well no they are sexless but their gender identity is female
