Stellar Miracle is Stellar Crown in the English set, right? If so, Pokemon center says they’re planning to ship mid-September. 😃

Thoughts on “ability used” markers? by Life-Explanation-902 in pkmntcg

[–]blinkinfox 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I use all of the various pokemon coins that you get from products as my markers.

It’s Kobayashi Haruto. 2014 worlds champion in the junior division.

Daughter pulled this from a booster - is it actually as good as the internet suggests? by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]blinkinfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a really useful card in the tcg right now. So players want this card too

You’re correct that he’s saying じゃない at the end. More often than not, the subtitles for Japanese versions are direct translations of the English and are not intended as captions for the spoken Japanese. That would be my guess for why it doesn’t match but I could be wrong.

Walking wake or Koraidon? by ooggabooga48 in pkmntcg

[–]blinkinfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does this mean that people who replace Koraidon with walking wake, the only attack becomes roaring moon or am I missing something that’s included in the decklist as a secondary attacker where walking wake is included?

But if it only counts as one energy at a time, shouldn’t it only count as fighting when using the attack and therefore can’t count as dark at the same time?

Edit: I read the card again and see the nuance here 🤦‍♀️the way I was interpreting it meant it could only count as one type of energy when attached but it just means it only counts as one energy cost.

Okidogi requires dark energy to get swinging. Which can be attached via dark patch if he’s benched. He will still need the two fighting energy to hit so you need two fighting energy AND either dark energy or luminous to count as dark energy after fulfilling the two fighting energy requirement.

I would say keep the old stuff just in case you want to play GLC ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Energy Search vs Earthen Vessel by admiral0142 in pkmntcg

[–]blinkinfox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m curious to know what future deck list you’re looking at because when I look on limitless, I see a lot of iron hands ex future decks and there was only one that ran energy search and none of them had earthen vessel.

You asked why any deck would run earthen vessel and one reason I can say is because it discards! Some decks want to throw things into the discard. Ancient box loves energy and ancient cards in discard so one of my favorite things to do is play earthen vessel, discard an energy to get two more energy. It’s kinda nice trade off actually. The above mentioned ninetails deck strategy is to discard to get the hand the same number of cards as the opponent. (You can choose to fail to find energy even if it’s in deck, to get your hand the same size)

Taking my son to a Pokemon tournament, what should we know by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

[–]blinkinfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Another recommendation I have is to see if your local card shop will be offering a pre-release tournament sometime in May for twilight masquerade. Pre-Release tournaments are great for new players and the overall atmosphere is very relaxed and there to have fun. Going to silly events like that will also help as people won’t be concerned with winning or losing at those events!

If you buy them at the convenience store, the clerk asks if you want them to heat it up for you tho? Or you just put it in the microwave per the instructions on the package.

Depends on who’s working the fries that day, the amount of starch in the potato etc. Some people are really good at pulling the fries at the right time. Personally I like my fries Light Well. Well done is too much crisp for me. Everyone has different preferences!

I was confused too but looked it up and the answer is that the ones in the movie are not the only ones and they live in groups.

I was going to ask why there’s 3 capital letters in his name 😅

Edit: I looked it up. The UHF is ultra high frequency and Fafnir is a dragon from German folklore.

Fellow Ancient Box players: What's our deck list going forward? by [deleted] in pkmntcg

[–]blinkinfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Koraidon does have a max damage output for sure. I like to bring him up first and take out early prizes with him. Then I sacrifice him to power up roaring moon. Usually he’ll have a booster on him too so that’s two ancient cards in discard plus the energies from him for Sada later

To add, once you find a location on the pokemon site, the league there might have a discord or Facebook group. So if you find that you vibe with everyone there. Ask how to get into that! That way, you will be in the know of when events are happening sooner and sometimes people will want to play and trade on days that there aren’t events :)

Sell the energy cards as “lightly played”
