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?

  3. I really wish they invented a new physical contact Flying Move that Aerodactyl could use
    Because all it gets is Aerial Ace or Wing attack as its direct flying Stab, I mean after STAB BP and Touch Claws it should be pretty good, but it could be better

    Reply

    • I actually I agee. It sucks Aerial Ace is the best we got after Brave Bird (nobody uses fly). Thats a whole 50 BP lower.

      Reply

      • Yeh I did have some kinda idea for a Talon Crush attack
        Talon Crush
        Flying
        Physical
        75
        The user digs its sharp claws into the opponent, it has a chance to lower defense

        And this one
        Quill Flurry
        Flying
        Physical
        25
        The opponent is struck with a volley of feathers striking 2-5 times

  4. Since it was just St Patrick’s Day 2 days ago, what is your favorite Pokemon that is either a Grass type, or is green?

    Reply

  5. We all know they messed up a lot of pokemon gen 7 due to speed. One pokemon I want to mention is Lurantis. Honestly I thought Lurantis was gonna be this cool Big Sun Sweeping Pokemon (Totem Trial made it seem like it), but Lurantis came out to this below average contrary sweeper (with Special Attack being only 80. It’s such a situational mon to the point where it isnt even fun, and it has such a cool design. So I will try to update this pokemon and provide it with better stats to be the sweeping mon it was meant to be.
    Lurantis
    Grass
    Chlorophyll (This thing SHOULD have gotten this instead of leaf guard)
    HP: 70
    Atk: 125 (Not going to make this TOO strong, but 115 is very handy for sweeping)
    Def: 90
    SpA: 90 (+10, Just in case you want run contrary sweep)
    SpD: 90
    Spe: 45.
    “Um Cascoon why are you NOT giving it any speed boosts?? This literally the problem with every Alola Pokemon.” Ah good question, myself. It doesn’t need the speed boost. Max speed+Cholorphyll makes it’s speed to be 212. This means it outspeeds everything with base 140 or lower (non scarved). This allows it to Wreck more the meta, and with powerful Solar Blade, and new and improved 125 attack, many things wont be living this thing. Before any of you compain “That just makes it a trick pony” (which is a stupid complaint in the first place) Nope, two tricks!
    Sun Sweeper
    Solar Blade
    X-Scissor
    Synthesis
    Sunny Day/ Poison JAb/Defog/ Swords Dance

    Contrary Sweeper
    Leaf Storm
    Giga Drain
    Hidden Power
    Aromatherapy/Defog/Synthesis/filler

    Now thats the end of my little Lurantis Rant. So my question to you guys. What Pokemon would you buff? Try to point out it’s flaws and fix it.
    I have two rules though. #1 It can’t very good already. That just makes it no fun to buff. #2 You cannot buff a pokemon family with 3 stages. 3 stage mons normally have a lot better thats than two stage mons.

  6. well today’s gonna be yet another losing day, played splatoon for the first time in weeks, every single match overrun the second the match began

  7. I finally have my region down. It’s name is Selos (taken from the Norwegian word “Grenselos”, meaning “limitless”), and it will be based on a combination of Norway and Sweden.

    Reply

  8. Also here is the Selos legendary trio that roams the region:

    History: Thousands of years ago, the war between the mighty legendaries Nadirth and Zernirmus brought upon great destruction to the land. Life in Selos was in complete disarray, the waters were unclean, the plants withered and died, the Pokemon suffered, and the winds were carried of ash. The people themselves felt as if they were living in a complete nightmare, so they gave up their faith in the world.
    Xerneas, a legendary from Kalos, sensed this brutality Selos was facing. Seeing how Selos was in a dire situation, Xerneas bore 3 life-forms from it’s seven-colored horns: Baressence, Resiphyr, and Delespirit. These Pokemon were then sent to the region to restore it to its former, beautiful state. Baressence gave new life to nature, Resiphyr cleanse the winds and water of diseases, and Delespirit healed the spirits of the depressed. The trio were successful in restoration, which gave new way to the Age of Rebirth for Selos.
    These Pokemon have long been honored as the heroes of Selos, which many shrines have been dedicated to them across the region. They became known as the “Children of Xerneas”. Ever since the Age of Rebirth, the trio have been there in dire pandemics, constantly healing the region. But for the past 1900 years, the trio have mysteriously vanished, with not a single sight of one member has been found. People long for the return of these benevolent Pokemon.
    Despite their disappearances, the Children of Xerneas will return…

    That is part 1 of this trio. I will post another comment about their typings, abilities, and stats. For now, discuss about your feelings of the trio!

  9. Huh. Kind of a small thing that doesn’t really matter, but its been confirmed now that the Switch uses as Standard Tegra chip, not a custom like was rumored. This generally means that the switch has the same graphical capabilities of the Shield, though spec wise it is superior in nearly every way. Just a small thing to bring up.

  10. Here’s part 2, where I will discuss the information about each Pokemon:

    The Being of Fertility
    Baressence
    The Rebirth Pokemon
    Type: Grass/Normal
    Ability: Protection of Nature: Baressence, along with it’s allies in battle, will gain 1/7 of their HP back in battle after each turn
    Height: 4’11
    Weight: 87 lbs
    Stats:
    (HP) 116
    (ATK) 95
    (DEF) 140
    (SP ATK) 62
    (SP DEF) 108
    (SPD) 59
    (BST) 580
    Dex Entry: In times of disasters and famine, Baressence appears to give new life to the land. One single touch on the ground, and the entire area will be covered with plants, grass, and trees in a few moments, as if there wasn’t a disaster that existed prior. This is because it’s cells contain very rich fertilization that can create life. Farmers often pay respects for this Pokemon for restoring nature in Selos. It lives in a secluded, rich forest somewhere in Selos.
    Name Origin: Baressence is a combination of a part of “fruktbarhet”, meaning fertility in Norwegian, and essence.

    The Being of Purification
    Resiphyr
    The Purge Pokemon
    Type: Flying/Water
    Ability: Protection of Unburden: Resiphyr, along with it’s allies in battle, will never receive a status condition. Those who try to do a status condition on this Pokemon and its allies will instead receive the condition, no matter its typing.
    Height: 5′ 06″
    Weight: 5 lbs
    Stats:
    (HP) 62
    (ATK) 59
    (DEF) 116
    (SP ATK) 108
    (SP DEF) 140
    (SPD) 95
    (BST) 570
    Dex Entry: Resiphyr’s body is composed of water and gas molecules with a purifying factor that it can control. It transforms into either air or water to cleanse the skies, lakes, oceans, or ponds from contamination. Selos fishermen and sailors praise this Pokemon for blessing the winds and seas, and often they carry a necklace that symbolizes Resiphyr. It apparently dislikes Poison types, so it will attack them with great ferocity. This Pokemon resides in a hidden, vast lake in the mountains.
    Name Origin: Resiphyr comes from Rensing, which also means purification in Norweigan, and Zephyr.

    And lastly, the Being of Soul
    Delespirit
    The Inner Balance Pokemon
    Type: Ghost/Fairy
    Ability: Protection of Spirit: Delespirit, along with it’s allies, will be protected from all critical hits, and will be protected from very super effective damage (which is only for 4x effectiveness).
    Height: 4′ 03″
    Weight: 57 lbs
    Stats:
    (HP) 130
    (ATK) 100
    (DEF) 110
    (SP ATK) 100
    (SP DEF) 110
    (SPD) 30
    (BST) 580
    Dex Entry: It has been said that when Delespirit comes across a civilization who has lost faith in the world, it will leave the people transformed from who they originally were. It has been said to be amongst the wisest and most patient Pokemon of all. It will connect to the people’s spirit within, guiding them in a spiritual journey to find their inner selves. Some civilizations build statues to pay respects to this benevolent Pokemon. Somewhere deep in a cave, Delespirit will be in a slumber.

    • I love them! (Especially the third)
      You may wanna change the ability names cause they are rather long. I believe in an actual Pokémon game they’d probably squish

      Reply

      • Thanks! Also yep, those ability names are a lot. How about Nature’s Guard, Unburden’s Guard, and Spirit’s Guard instead?

  16. So what’s everyone doing in Pokemon (or other games) today. Im just playing the Battle Factory. It’s as fun as ever.

    Reply

    • I was playing BotW until I checked my email….
      Mini rant incoming: my geometry teacher assigned 3 pages of HW last night at 11 PM. When I have ONE day of spring break left. Seriously, did he not consider emailing earlier?! People are probably coming home from traveling and such, and won’t have time to do it (or resources, I left my stuff at school). Sorry, I know you don’t care, but I just want to vent. He had like 10 or more days to tell us, and he chooses the last day of break. -_-

      Reply

      • …

        What kind of teacher assigns homework IN THE MIDDLE OF A BREAK instead of you know THE DAY BEFORE THE BREAK like what’s the point of that!?

        Reply

        • Exactly. Though, I’m not even that suprised. The teacher is notorious for bad communication (ex: he often doesn’t assign HW until after everyone has gone home, he often only tells one class about a test and assumed word will travel, etc.), but I’m annoyed nonetheless. I’m just glad I only have another quarter, some people have him next year as well.

          Reply

          • Yeah….
            I’ve fortunately only ever not heard about 1 test (which pretty much destroyed my grade in the first semester), but I often only hear about them a day or so in advance. I’ve basically just been asking a friend frequently about tests and stuff, I hate to sound annoying but I’d hate to not hear about a test even more.

        • That reminds me, do you guys think Zelda Maker will ever be a thing? People are saying since BotW began as a Zelda 1 prototype, that Zelda Maker is pretty much confirmed.

          Personally I think it won’t happen. Mario Maker was one thing, that’s a platformer, but I don’t think they could ever have a game where people make their own Zelda dungeons.

          Reply

          • Sure, but it seems too. . . for lack of a better word, chaotic, to do. I feel like it just wouldn’t be as fun to play other people’s maps as it was in Mario Maker. I think they’d all just be gauntlets of octoroks, and sure, Mario Maker had some pretty bad level design, but I think Zelda Maker would lack variety even more.

            If that even makes sense, I feel like I’m rambling at this point.

  23. Back in the ORAS Showdown, did anybody use a Pokemon that wasn’t popular in higher tiers? Like I used a Dedenne pretty often.

  25. I have a serious question: why do people say 3rd party support is so crucial to a console launch, and yet the Wii U had a horrible launch despite having many AAA games such as Mass Effect and Assassin’s Creed? Okay, I know Nintendo failed in many aspects of the launch such as advertising, but I often hear people say that if they could get a console with Nintendo exclusives and the big AAA third party games, they’d buy it in a heartbeat. But clearly that didn’t happen. I’m not sure I’m being clear in what I’m asking, so I hope that makes sense.

    Reply

    • honestly people buy nintendo consoles for their first party games, first and foremost, the big selling 3rd party games at launch if I remember correctly were already out on the other consoles so people already had them unless they owned a nintendo console only, in which case they might stick to what they know they like instead of buying a 3rd party game they might not like. Take the switch for example, hell yes its exciting its getting Skyrim but it would have been a lot more monumental if the remaster was released on all consoles at the same time, but the switch wasnt out yet. However with the switch its portable which ups the selling point because people like myself would rather play portable then sit in front of a TV which is why the switch has a chance at selling 3rd party games where the wii u did not

      Reply

      • I keep hearing people be optimistic about the 3rd party support, and I really want to join in. But if I’m being honest, many many third parties don’t seem to even consider the switch. I’ve been hearing stories left and right about developers saying they won’t bring their games to the system, and I haven’t heard of any new AAA third party games other than sports titles. But I suppose if the console sells well enough they’ll come. . .

        Side note: it’s annoying how some devs are pricing their games higher on switch. If people don’t buy it, they’ll assume switchers don’t want their games. If they do buy it, it’ll encourage other devs to price their games higher on switch as well.
