One of the most exciting changes coming to the Pokemon TCG is the Pokemon V variant of Pokemon. Pokemon V work very similarly to Pokemon-EX and Mega Evolutions, and they can be built upon with Pokemon VMAX cards, which give them absurd amounts of HP, more powerful attacks, and Monster Hunter Rise console port an extremely double-edged sword mechanic where players who are able to beat them can claim a whopping three prize cards. It’s a high risk and high reward style of play that will both restrict deckbuilding and breed creativity in terms of using them most effectively and protecting them, and it beautifully mirrors the way that _Pokemon Sword & Shield _ ‘s Gigantamax and Dynamax Pokemon offer the same risky style of battl
It also has the attack Psychic Lock, which, at the cost of 1DCE and 1PE, deals 60 damage and locks the opponent from using any Poké-power of their pokémon during their next turn. The card has also been part of the World Championships winning deck in 2008 used by Jason Klaczyn
Pokemon Powers are essentially the early TCG’s equivalent for Abilities and they can be greatly useful in the right situations. At the beginning of its trainer’s turn, Light Arcanine’s Drive Off forces the opponent to switch their Active Pokemon with one of their Benched Pokemon, assuming any are availa
Shadow Room, on the other hand, deals damage of 30 on the opponent’s pokémon, and, if the defending pokémon happens to have a Poké-Power, the damage immediately increases to 60. Poltergeist is the most insane, allowing players to view the opponent’s hand, and based on the number of Trainer, Stadium, and Supporter cards they have, this attack deals damage of 30 times the number of those cards in the opponent’s hand, making way for absurd knocko
Light Ledian is an interesting card because it has a move that affects other Pokemon for a consistent duration without the use of any counters or special identifiers. Flash Touch swaps this Active Bug-type with any other Pokemon on the trainer’s Bench and essentially gives them a shield that protects them from special conditions while they are the Active Poke
Possessing a powerful Pokemon Power, this fully evolved dragon Pokemon can be difficult for the opposing trainers to go up against if they try to make use of special energy cards that are anything except Colorless. Miraculous Wind makes all special energy cards on the field not only lose their additional effects but also make their type Colorl
Kiawe is the perfect Trainer Card for Fire-based decks and should be used during the game’s early stages to give the player the upper hand. While it does end the player’s turn upon use, it allows him/her to search the deck for four Fire energy-cards and attach the same to one of his/her pokémon, which can also increase to five, if the player has already attached the one energy he/she is allowed to attach to a pokémon per t
However, the most powerful in all the Vileplume cards have to be the one belonging to Ancient Origins expansion, which with its 130 HP Stage 2 portfolio, has an ability called Irritating Pollen, blocking players from using any item cards. This is especially useful when stopping powerful Pokémon from setting up and the additional attack of Solar Beam with 70 damage and a cost of two grass-energy and one-colorless comes as a welcome bo
Another change that players are excited about is a new round of Item cards that could shake up competitive TCG play. Many players have tagged Quick Ball, coming in the _Pokemon Sword & Shield _ TCG expansion, as a standout during preview season. As a card that can grab any basic Pokemon from the deck, it makes finding V cards – which are considered basics – trivial, and will add consistency to decks looking to embrace the new cards that are coming to the game. Here’s a quick look at some of the most exciting Item cards in the

This can cause enough chaos to prevent the foe from forming a proper defense. It should be mentioned that this Fire-type’s sole attack is only useful against evolved Pokemon, doing little damage against Baby and Basic cards. A somewhat common trait among the gentle Light Poke
