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. Does anyone have a Pokemon they really like, but it’s rarely heard of?

    For me, its Tangrowth and Octillery. I just love their simplicity.

  3. You know you fucked up when you have two Pokemon in the newest gen that are already completely irrelevant in every sense of the word

  8. I hate to admit this but
    ….. Why did SuMo fuck up Guzma so badly? I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THE FUCKER! But the thing is this…. they implied a backstory, gave him a beautiful team that works like fucking poetry, made him the boss of my favorite team, a godly theme, and I love the “typical gangaster but overboard” look he has but….
    They had all the foundation pieces… and did absolutely nothing with them…. WHAT THE FUCK GAME FREAK!?

    Reply

      • I LOVE him
        It’s just that they literally had every single piece to make a PERFECT character but didn’t put them all together…. why….. was it so hard to give him a PROPER final boss fight and not have him be a trainer with THE FUCKING DEFAULT TRAINER MUSIC

      • Y’know what really made me see? Strange house… when I saw the three letters and it mentioned Guzmas likes..
        See… that’s exactly it… the game implies who Guzma is… but never truly shows it till the post game…. and he’s perf

    • I dont quite understand why you dont like him? I dont think having implied back story, good theme, gangster, the backstory we know between him and lusamine, mean they did nothing with him. Maybe we have different definitions of nothing though

      Reply

      • No no, I LOVE Guzma… it’s just that they kinda threw him away… I know the backstory for Lusamine and all.. but they never really flesh Guzma out outside of implications and the end game.. I just wish he showed up one or two more times and actually had a BIT more of an impact on the story…. that’s all

        Reply

        • How his dad basically did not agree with Guzma becoming a battler (there is implied abuse there), so Guzma ran off. Then Lusamine was the only person to actually realize Guzma’s strength which is why he helps her (Though this part isnt the implied part).

          • I always got the sense that the team skull/AF collaboration was somewhat recent. They didn’t feel like life-long friends or anything

          • Yea I dont even think AF/ and Team skull were really working together, just Guzma listened to Lusamine.
            Though what I would like to see Plumeria and Guzma development. We know that Plumeria feels like the Big Sister to the Grunts, but we dont know why she joined team skull (or at least I dont remember). Does she feel like a “daughter” to Guzma? I wish they went a little more into that. Heck, I dont think they were ever in the same scene together ever.

          • They need to rework how they “advanced” the plot on the first two islands. All we really got was grunts fucking around not adding anything, gladion intro (who also needs work) and Plumeria intro (though you could remove her entirely and nothing would change. Therefore, she needs work)

  13. Actually, while we’re at it, let’s list everything wrong about Kalos. For me, it was an anti-Unova: non-memorable characters + story, squat Pokemon, and a very short region to explore.

  17. It’s hillarious when people say SuMo had a small effect on the Meta
    I mean….. they realize what a Tapu is right?

          • Outside of the reasons I gave, it just friggin bores the shit out of me
            The characters are ALMOST all sterotypes of some sort.
            I just don’t find the game interesting, enjoyable, or endearing any way

          • I mean
            The average cowboy
            The teenage edgy fanfic character
            The typical hardened soldier
            The typical Brute (Just wearing a pig mask)
            Typical unhinged fighter (Just Australian)
            They don’t exactly have much personality outside that
            (AGAIN I SAID MOST)

            (This isn’t a criticism as much as this is just questioning, why does sombra sound like every single Latino person who works a customer service phone line? Think about it, you won’t unhear it)

          • And yeah, a game can still have eh characters and be good, especially a game like OW… but the gameplay which holds it up for other people just bores the shit out of me. I just don’t enjoy it at all

            (though I’ll admit this, I will flat out play the game again once Doomfist comes out. Maybe only for like a week, but I may just play it)

          • I mean, it’s my own opinion, a rather unpopular one at that, but I really can’t squeeze any form of enjoyment out of it

          • What are you talking about? Their designs rope you into the haracter and you learn about them through how they play, their skins, their dialogue and backstory they provide. They are all brimming with personality

          • i don’t see any personality besides what they are, I’ve played the game too y’know
            I know there’s backstory, but still

            Besides, if the game had amazing characters I would still be complaining about it. That isn’t my main gripe anyways

          • But then characters aren’t bad. At all. You could say that about any character because every character will fall into archetypes. There is only so much you can do with characters you only use to fight.

          • I just find them very boring to me.. I’m just used to playing games where every character is extremely fleshed out, that’s all. And if they aren’t, something else draws me in

            I honestly don’t like OW cause I find it super boring

          • No the gorilla that tossed around some stupid kid who should’ve never climbed in there in the first place which resulted in them shooting it to subdue it

            Now because of this millions of grade A jackasses now think this deceased primate as a stupid meme God and frankly I’m sick of it

          • Earthen I’m well aware of the case. Just like how people all but sent death threats to the child’s mother for taking her eye off of him for a moment and how the zoo was mostly to blame for having an exhibit that didn’t update the safety rails for decades.

            I just wanted to see where this was going encase it was something actually serious and not someone bored out of their mind and resorting to some light trolling.

          • Actually in all legitimacy, I feel pretty uncomfortable right now because I read a disturbing as shit fanfic….. why does the internet need to be this bad?

          • Honestly, there’s a number of reasons. The internet is a free market place allowing for people to express all of their idea, both good and bad. As well it serves as a good place for people to test out ideas and improve their craft. A lot of my writing friends have helped me shape my craft and I started off effectively writing bad fanfic on GaiaOnline like 12 years ago. And in an extreme sense, and perhaps a bit graphic for my taste, it could be the outlit logic. That people need to let these crazy thoughts get out of their head into something, otherwise they would do something kinda crazy in the real world. Like, when I said a bit graphic, its like the logic of some of the really creepy Dojinshi/hentai out of Japan that largely serves to help the people they see as mentally ill and could could go out and commit sexual crimes by curving that urge and has resulted in the nation having incredibly low rates of sexual based crimes. But that last one’s a bit of a stretch without knowing context.

          • Does anyone want to read a fanfiction where child abuse is the main subject? And I don’t mean as a plot point…. it’s the whole fanfic

          • It could be someone trying to cope with their own abuse. Or perhaps someone who wants to help children who are abused. Or it could just be a crappy writer. Don’t read to much into it. If you can’t enjoy something, don’t make yourself suffer through it. Heck the only story I can think of that actually is worth suffering through is ‘That dragon Cancer’, and even I can’t put myself through that ball of emotion. Far too much pain there for me.

          • I can understand the appeal of seeing a burning heap of metal and death, but just try not to sink into despair from it.

            As for the story I mentioned, I do suggest it. It was an indie game created by a couple who were trying to fight their sons cancer, and making a game to tell the their story struggling with him through it. It was intended to end on a happy note with him being cancer free, as it seemed like he was. But sadly in reality the boy had a quick and sudden turn for the worse, and died, and thus the game reflects that. I lost my grandfather to cancer, and my father was diagnosed with cancer about a year ago. The thought of seeing what it did to my grandfather, and what it may one day do to my father terrifies me in a way that text could never express.

          • Its fine man. Its just another reason why I take things seriously. Anyway’s, lets not dwell in misery and just enjoy the day. Tomorrow/Today is Friday. The Weekends here and plenty of great games are on the Horizon.

          • Hey, the zoo’s exhibit was up to code. If anyone is to be blamed, it’s the administration for not having safe enough standards.

          • If I’m remembering correctly the child managed to push his way through a small chain link fence that wasn’t properly secured, which seems like it would be their fault. But I could be wrong.

          • Actually we’re both sort of right. Apparently the barrier was not up to code, but they had actually passed inspection for it earlier in the year. So, on one hand, they probably should have been more careful and had better measures, but on the other hand, the administration needs better standards. Sorry. But they actually are completely redoing their gorilla exhibits now.

          • Sorry, yeah it really was. I just get kind of on edge about Harambe stuff. It’s annoyingly thrown around and I live in Cincinnati and volunteer at the zoo ^-^;

          • It’s actually beating a dead gorilla…
            No but seriously, I actually just wrote the first thing that popped into my head

          • That actually is a really effective tool in helping people who are suffering from Depression and suicidal thoughts. Thank you Earthen.

  25. Here’s the final evo to my regional bird:

    Harpatant
    The Sky Master Pokemon
    Type: Fighting/Flying
    Ability: Inner Focus/Technician (HA: Justified)
    Height : 4′ 06″
    Weight: 69 lbs
    Stats:
    HP: 130
    ATK: 102
    DEF: 58
    SP ATK: 26
    SP DEF: 65
    SPD: 109
    (BST) 490

    Dex Entry: Harpatant are the guardians of the sky, and when trouble arises, they will do heroic deeds while going in head on. They have mastered their arial techniques to the max, and will do seemingly impossible aerodynamic skills to combat other Pokemon. Trainers who are able to have a Harpatant from the very beginning will have a perfect bond with this Pokemon, even to the point where Harpatant will sacrifice its life to protect its trainer in the face of danger.

    Concept: Harpatant is based on a Harpy Eagle, with other influences of other eagles in it’s design. Harpatant also takes on influences of Indian warriors into its design, fitting its warrior theme, and also has a superhero influence too.

    Name origin: Harpatant originates from Harpy (from the bird name itself) and Combatant

    Evo: ??? -(lv 15)-> ??? -(max friendship at level 38)-> Harpatant
