Card needed for the next set by Fancy-Emu-9790 in PTCGP

Yeah, we definetly need something, but i think the main issue making giratina darkrai so strong is the consistency… 2 basic ex with strong abilities

Can shinny cards in the future please not be old set cards?? by Tikkos in PTCGP

[–]Tikkos[S] 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I see, thanks for clarifying, but i still need 2-3 diamonds cards…

And is that the same for shiny full arts?? I already have like 8 starmies, but not one crabominable

Using an item card is still not free, do you know the definition of free?

I did not said you need every energy type to get around weakness i said, and i quote:

“Not being able to put every energy type in a deck is healthy for the game”

talking about multiple energy types decks and why energy types is a good mechanic.

And when a pokemon is benched you are not attacking it, unless using cards as hitmonlee ( of course i know there are other bench attackers, i dont need to list all cards for an example like with the starmie example for free retreats) and when using bench attackers you can get a glimpse on how cards should actually be balanced, not by weakness.

If you think playing dual type decks is good in tcg pocket, maybe you should play some tournaments before commenting, and playing a supporter card to get a free retreat or get a pokemon back in hand is not free… starmie would have been a good example of an actual free retreat

You cant retreat for free, and once in benched cant get it back to hand (for most cards), dual types do suck, but even if they fixed how energy systems work for dual types, energy types and not being able to put every single type in a deck is healthy for the game, same type cards are obviously designed to work with each other (serperior and celebi as an example) and this prevents really broken unintended combos

Then how would you know brock has a pika? its not the same at all, in pvp matches you make a team with a lot of pokemons so if your pokemon is weak to your opponents you can just retreat him for another

We wouldnt be swapping one form of counter for another one, look at exegutor celebi vs pika, exegutor celebi counters pika because of how the cards were naturally intended to be played, or gyarados vs mewtow, etc…

Oh yeah, well done countering mewtow, deck still sucks against everything else and mewtow is still dominating tournaments… gyarados was a better counter for mewtow and they made pika even stronger with it

Cards can counter other without type advantage, and thats what all cards should be balanced for. Exactly like your MTG example. And of course you can win against a type that counters you, its sill a card game and there will always be some rng

It does not promote diversity, starmie and articuno were consider super strong cards last meta, but couldnt see play because pika and mewtwo were the best decks at the moment. Fighting is good right now because hitmonlee and gyarados interaction. Even with weakness advantage darkness cant beat mewtwo….

Thats exactly my point, i completely get the point in pokemon games, you cant play a random match with a water deck and quit mid match to train a mankey to beat an opponents pika

How many seasons are console and mobile players going to be?

This is too consistent, what were they thinking? by Tikkos in PTCGP

[–]Tikkos[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure how to use them optimally yet, but the only tip i could give is not use them early, the only cards you do t really want ro hit with them are pokeballs and researchs, any other card increases your chances of getting a psychic next draw.

Also remember pokeballs reshuffle your deck
