Release of SM2 Brings Some Amazing Cards

by

Recently we got a peek at the cards in the newly released Japanese set, SM2. I’m sure most of you have seen at least a few of these by now, but a brand new set warrants another look. I will include a few in the article here from various Twitter posts and if you’d like to see them all, there will be a video at the bottom of the article that has everything else that has been released.

We don’t know what exactly this will mean for the next English set just yet. If we have everything that’s been released in our English set, we would have over 35 Ultra Rares, Full Arts, or Secret Rares. That just sounds outrageous. But only time will tell. I’ll be sure to keep you guys updated as we get news about English releases.

First off, we have the Wishiwashi GX/Full Art. The first card of Wishiwashi we have in its School Form.

 

Next up, we have a Secret Rare Fighting Energy. The Metal and Psychic Energy Secret Rares from Sun and Moon Base Set are really holding up price-wise so it’s nice to see TPCI continuing the trend. We also have a Secret Rare Lightning Energy in the set. We saw a Secret Rare Double Colorless Energy and Grass Energy in SM1+ which we still have not had in English. So potentially 4 Secret Rare Energies for the English SM2?

 

So what do you guys think about the new cards? Are you excited to own them for yourself? And what are your thoughts on the controversial amount of Secret Rares in the Sun and Moon sets so far?

          • Oh, yeah, that is true. Design quality Gen 7 was amazing to me… but ummmmm why in gods name couldn’t Golisopod have gotten Shell Armor? It would be balanced.. and really good

          • FORGET SHELL ARMOR I WANT TOUGH CLAWS
            SO MANY FUCKING TIMES THAT EMERGENCY EXIT RUINED ME!!!!!! ARGGHHHG

            I love Golisopod i truly do, maybe slightly even more than Mudsdale but it ruins so many strategies

            My Golisopod is Defensive and nothing sratches it, while it boosts with Swords Dance just for it to latch on a opponent with all six arms and chomp down sucking blood from them butn its hard when ongoing stealth rocks cause me to go under 50% JUST TO HAVE GOLISPOD TURN TAIL AND GET THEM A SECOND TIME

          • Tough Claws would be busted on Golisopod, hence why I say shell armor

            (I love how GF thought giving that ability to a pokemon that is easily wittled down by hazards was a smart idea)

          • I know but LOOK AT THOSE FUCKING CLAWS MAN
            butt……Shell Armor plus Iron Defense would be gnarly
            but that ruins my set up

          • Again…. balance my friend, you preach it and ya gotta follow it
            Shell armor would be good :3
