Celebi Prime is a Basic Pokémon, which belongs to the Triumphant expansion and has an HP of 60. It comes equipped with Poké-Powers Forest Breath and Time Circle. Forest Breath allows the player to attach one Grass energy-card to any of their Pokémon before making an attack if Celebi happens to be the active Pokémon in p
Watching the Pokemon TCG continue to grow and adapt to pressures from its community as they grow as well, it’s clear that the Pokemon Company has been paying attention to what fans want. A revised rules policy that attempts to make the game more balanced, more flashy additions to keep consumers interested in the game’s art style and presentation, and attention paid to all types of players make the Pokemon Sword & Shield _ TCG expansion one of the most important in the game’s history. It will be interesting to see how things unfold from here but, if nothing else, trainers across the world can be confident that the _Sword & Shield _ series of the _Pokemon TCG is starting off ri
Water types have “Plus” energy attacks, moves with a plus sign to the right of the damage number. These kinds of moves get a flat bonus to their damage output for water energy, and they mostly only exist on water type cards. The Wailord card from the Vivid Voltage expansion is a great example of this. Even though it takes a total of 4 energy to unleash their Hydro Pump attack, it will always deal massive damage when launched. The base 10 damage plus the optimal attachment of 4 water energy results in a 170 damage assault that has no negative downside for the u
Virizion EX is a Basic Pokémon with 170 HP and belongs to the Black & White – Plasma Blast expansion of the franchise. This ultra-rare card boasts of a powerful ability Verdant Wind, which protects each of the player’s Pokémon that has a grass energy-card attached to it from being affected by any Special Condition. If Special Conditions are already imposed on any Pokémon of the player with grass energy attached to it, this ability removes them instan
With the use of supporters like Copycat and Judge, players can easily reach the same number of cards as their opponent and use this incredible ability that Yanmega has. The two other attacks in Yanmega’s arsenal include Linear Attack and Sonicboom, the first of which allows the player to deal 40 damage to any of the opponent’s Pokémon including benched ones, and the second one deals a damage of 70 but isn’t affected by the defending Pokémon having a resistance or weakness. While there are separate costs for each of these attacks, after using Insight, it all comes down to z
It isn’t just the base set that’s exciting, and it won’t just be competitive players who stand to benefit from the many changes coming to the Pokemon TCG as it prepares for the _Sword & Shield _ series of its life cycle. With _Pokemon Sword & Shield _ TCG comes a trio of theme decks that could not be better for new players and new fans in general, as they mirror the time-honored tradition of selecting a starter Pokemon and beginning a trainer’s journey into the world of the video game franchise. The three theme decks coming with the set are Inteleon, Rillaboom, and Dead Space Remake Cinderace, the final evolutions of the most recent generation of starters: Sobble, Grookey, and Scorbu
Scyther from the Jungle expansion is one of the best Generation 1 Pokémon that is a Basic Pokémon with 70 HP, something which was huge for a Basic Pokémon to have at the time of its release. While it might seem funny in the present, this card was uniquely powerful at the time of its rele
Having cracked open the theme decks and played them against each other, they’re startlingly similar to the way trainers can battle their Pokemon in the video games – and just like those, typing matters a bunch. Having access to all three was especially fun since the decks basically make one person play as the “rival” in each instance. For younger fans of the game or those who’ve always wanted to learn, the _Pokemon Sword & Shield _ TCG theme decks make a game that has been around for decades much easier to learn than it has any right be
This move is especially useful for players who use switching decks and allows them to trap the opponent in a loop of attacks. Furthermore, it only has a retreat cost of one-energy and has also been a part of a World’s Deck in 2012 because of Zachary Bohkari, a semifinalist in 2012’s Junior Divis
Gardevoir is a stage 2 Psychic pokémon with 110 HP and the exciting Poké-Power Telepass. While this power can only be used once per turn, it allows the player to search the discard pile of the opponent and select a Supporter Card and use that Supporter Card’s ability as their own. The card, however, remains in the opponent’s discard pile but allows the player to essentially play two Supporter Cards during a single t
When Dark Gyarados gets Knocked Out by an opponent’s attack, Final Beam will activate and grant the trainer a special coin flip. If heads, the opposing Pokemon will take 20 damage for each Water-type energy attached to Dark Gyara
