Pokemon Legacy Evolution Pin Collection Revealed

by

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?

  1. Damn my insomnia
    I lie awake in the midnight hour and I can’t sleep a wink, I desperately want to go downstairs and make a taco, the only thing stopping me is my reluctance to get up and put pants on
    And if my sweet darling Beatrice sees me she’ll want to be let out…
    Nyarghhhh

        • I am in the recovery department in BJs which is a Wholesale club
          I gotta reclaim stuff those son of a bitch morons I call customers stupidly take out and leave in random places, and I gotta keep the shelves neat and orderly and handle it all by myself because the rest of my department are dumb as hell

    • Hmmmmm I am partial to Bewear
      Once you use Bulk Up you are death incarnate, also I pray to several dark gods and a few demigods that when move tutors come out it gets Drain Punch then you hurt them and drink their broken blood!

      • Exactly… but it doesn’t have it at the moment…
        At the same time Kommo-o is super badass but is lacking in close combat, a move it should have

        Reply

        • Probably because it has its armored scales that make it unable to make it fast enough to use Close Combat

          So it should have it, but it has a reason why not to have it

          Reply

          • What you said makes no sense whatsoever. Since when does a pokémon have to be fast to use Close Combat? Why would the scales also affect its ability to use CC? Have you seen how Kommo-o moves in-game? If you take a look at the list of pokémon which can learn CC, there’s Hariyama, Crabominable which are slow as shit and also Heracross and Pinsir which have exoskeletons, which by your logic, should also make them unable to use the move, yet that’s not the case. And I’m not even going to talk about all the Quadrupedal pokémon that learn the move (and Staraptor which apparently can beat someone’s ass with its wings). If all those mons learn the move, then Kommo-o should also learn it.

      • I’m playing RU, and I don’t wanna double type with my Doublade by using Cario

        And they are both available
        Of course Hawlucha is an option, but with my synergy I doubt it will work

    First Stage is based on a Jalapeño- Grass/Fire
    Final Stage is based on a Ghost Pepper- Fire/Ghost

    Originally Normal/Steel but that seemed too on the nose

  18. I greatly apologize to those in the tourney. I have been gone this whole week since I actually had no free time what so ever. I am back, and the tourney battles continue

  22. I swear the Switch better get some kinda Virtual Console going on because i’m on the verge of not playing the switch…..i want Splat2….but i can always play on my Wii U but…it would feel weird

    Reply

    • Even if it did get virtual console tomorrow, I’m sure you could get the exact same on Wii U. The switch doesn’t have many games that interest me this season. Except for BotW and ARMS, there’s not much until potentially almost fall. But that’s when the heavy stuff starts hitting frequently.

  23. Well Sega finally dropped that turd
    Something called “Sonic Forces” and it looks like a generations dry heave

    Reply

          • i’m not holding my breath, Sonic has been in the shitter for a while now and what they should be doing is not work on rehashes of their same games and freaking make Sonic Adventure 3

          • Your a funny man, you know that earthen. You are. Sonic’s 3d games have been on the rise since Unleashed getting better pretty much with every entry in some aspect and generations was great. An adventure game would be garbage by todays standards since adventure wasn’t that good to begin with. You had sonic who would fly off the stage half the time, knuckles flying around for 20 minutes to find hidden things, tails as a low budget racing game, Amy who has some of the worst survival horror gameplay ever, Big the Cat fishing simulator and a crappy third person shooter with a robot that nobody cared about with a crappy timer system. Adventure 2 tried to cut out the fluff, but it wasn’t really better. People like the sonic gameplay more then anything, and continuing to improve upon that is for the best.

          • For its time it was good, but it hasn’t aged well at all if you go back and try to play it. Really the only good levels were Sonic’s, and those are what pretty much all modern 3d sonic games are at this point.

          • Yeah, but he’s effectively a re-skin of Sonic, so I would generally just call them Sonic levels.

          • (I’m getting so annoyed by everyone spouting edgey like a cancerous growth)
            Shadow is a fantastic character with a solid story

          • I know Earthen’s said some incorrect shit before…. but this is actually fucking wrong on every fundamental level

          • HE’S LITERALLY CALLED THE ULTIMATE LIFE FORM!!! HE’S BASICALLY THE DARK TEENAGER VERSION OF A MARY SUE BUT AS A FUCKING HEDGEHOG
            AND HE JUST SO HAPPENS TO BE SONIC’S DARK COUNTERPART AND IS LITERALLY FUCKING NAMED SHADOW

          • HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE THE PROBLEM WITH THIS!?

            @starstorm295:disqus Help me, Earthen’s about to make me commit suicide

          • you’re the one with the problem, Shadow was before the era where having a dark brooding anti-hero was considered cancerous, because now we live in a time where anything dark or evil is immediately labeled edgy and loses all significance of being a badass anti-hero

            i see Shadow as edgy but he carries this title proudly

          • I’d be fine with him but when I see Shadow, all I see is some overblown attempt to look cool

            (Ex: Shadow the Hedgehog, AKA “I GOT GUNS AND SAY DAMN A LOT”)
            But on the bright side, an annoying eggman quote was born

          • I actually agree with you on that. Shadows story was a really good tragedy by kid standards. I’ll admit it was a little rough knowing that Maria was gunned down trying to save him.

          • Yeah, he’s edgy, but that doesn’t change the fact that he has a good story. That’s like saying final fantasy 7 has a horrible story because Clouds an Emo git or because Tifa has large breasts. Your pretty much saying it has no value because of the smallest detail about a character. And even then he’s not that edgy by today’s standards.

          • And you wouldn’t be wrong in saying that. His story isn’t exactly new, but that doesn’t mean its inherently bad. But that’s beside the point. My point simply is that you shouldn’t just say “shadow sucks because he’s an edge’lord”, but rather say he’s not a great character since his story’s kind of cliche and its clear that he was designed to be an edgy and dark version of Sonic and honestly probably looks like someone’s OC on Deviant Art.

          • I know what you mean, but I just honestly see him as made only to be cool and a story was just slapped on half asssed and it just happened to work

            (I wish he didn’t fucking talk or have that personality… I personally love dark clones like Dark Samus. But hey, you can’t have everything)

          • WHY DO WE NEED ANOTHER ADVENTURE TITLE?? TELL ME
            TELL ME NOW!!!! GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

            YOU FREAKING FRICKS!!! WHEN WILL YOU LEARN? WHEN WILL YOU LEARN THAT YOUR ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES

          • For a sonic game nowadays this looks really good and fun!!!
            Though this is SONIC afteralll… That won’t last

          • Sonic needs to finally die…..the Blue Blur has been on one hell of a roller coaster through the addiction to failure

        • Oh yeah, no doubt. I’m not saying they would per se, but it isn’t a bad idea considering the state of things.

        • A few years ago there was this fake Pokémon Yellow that would just open a black screen but a bunch of people bought it. Like everyone wanted it. But of course it got taken off the App Store and everyone who bought it was refunded but clearly people wanted an actual Pokémon game on their phones

          Reply

          • Yes, but as you’ve said yourself people will buy nearly anything with pokemon on it, regardless of it even working. People would love it because its convenient and can work easily on a phone, but Its Nintendo. Nintendo does what’s best for them over the consumer in almost every case, and having a game that can easily be ripped from a phone, placed online and easily pirated across the world isn’t in their interest.

          • I get the point you’re trying to prove but it’s not as if you can just go download a Yellow ROM right now.

          • Yeah you can, but that’s a bit of a messy issue. Older games can still be played via roms, and I’m not going to argue the legality of it. However pretty much every supported console, and even last gen has proven to be too hard to create an emulator for. Heck, we don’t even have a really stable version of a 3DS emulator at this time. hackers have kinda given up on them at this point, which is a win for Nintendo. So it seems like releasing a new pokemon game on a phone wouldn’t be a great idea for them in general.

            But yeah, old games people certainly could figure out how to emulate after jumping through several hoops to do so for a game they’ll probably play for a few hours before deleting it.
