Time Walk Tips

Time Walk Tips

One of the most played Pokemon cards at the moment is Azelf from Legends Awakened. Its Poke-Power “Time Walk” is often taken for granted, but it seriously is one of the best Powers in the game.

Being able to rescue a Magikarp or your Luxray Lv.X from your prizes is huge. In the past, you would have to hope to pick the right prize when you got a knock out. There was much more luck involved, so you would be forced to play …

New Commenting System

New Commenting System

I was kinda sick of the old commenting system so I implemented a new one. Yes, I know it doesn’t show the funny faces (it might have support for that soon though), but it offers a few nice advantages:

1. No page reload when leaving a comment.

Hooray for this! I know the site loads slow sometimes (a lot of the time), and if you want to leave multiple comments on a post it can take forever, so this is a godsend.

2. Ability to log-in …

Regice Legends Awakened LA #36

Regice Legends Awakened LA #36

One card you should be sure not to overlook during your testing for States is Regice LA. It has been thought that this card was only useful in Gyarados for the sole purpose of discarding Magikarps, but “Regi Move” serves as a potent Pokemon Power that can swing the game in any deck’s favor.

Yes, Regice is a terrible starter if you have the misfortune drawing it as the only basic in your opening seven cards. It takes 3 Energy to both attack and …

Worlds Invite Structure, Sweet New Pokemon TCG Blog, and Contest

Worlds Invite Structure, Sweet New Pokemon TCG Blog, and Contest

Worlds Invite Structure

First of all, the Worlds invite structure was finally released a few days ago. You can check out all the specifics here.

Not many paid trips are being given out, so I think it’s going to be difficult for people that receive unpaid invites to make it to Hawaii. I know if I were somehow able to earn a rating invite, I’d have to swim to Hawaii. I think that’s probably going to be the case for most people, especially with …
