 Re-creation attack, for one Psychic and two Colorless Energy, allows you to copy an attack from one of your opponent’s Pokemon from the discard pile. It has been over 2 years since this card was released, a time when Double Rainbow Energy and Scramble Energy were popular and legal for the format. It was a complete pity and surprise Mew didn’t get a quick boost to turn the tables, as those two cards could only be attached to a evolved Pokemon.
Two years later, a really …

 Lookers Investigation is often an overlooked Supporter card, however, one belongs in almost every deck.
What it does: You get to look at your opponent’s hand, then decide whether to make him shuffle it into his deck, or shuffle your own hand into the deck. The player that shuffles his hand in can then draw up to five cards.
There are many other supporters that let you draw cards, including:
Cynthia’s Feelings
Professor Oak’s Visit
Professor Oak’s New Theory
Professor Rowan
There are also cards that make your opponent shuffle …

 A Dragonite FB at a first glance, August 2009:
100 HP…
x2 Weakness to a popular type…
-20 Fighting resistance…
3 Retreat Cost…
and two expensive and unreliable attacks?
But hey! Take a really good and hard look at Dragonite FB’s “Mach Blow” attack. It may be a really bad to start because of it’s many expensive attacks, unreliable weakness and retreat cost, however it could WORK because of two new cards released since the release of Supreme Victors.
Since there are MANY popular Pokemon-SP that usually have an average of 80 …

 My name is Michael Tremere I am an old seasoned Pokemon player just getting back into the game on a full time basis, and now writing my first article. Along time ago when I played the game pretty much constantly a personal favorite card of mine was Pokemon Trader, a trainer card that allowed me to exchange or trade a basic or evolution card in my hand for a basic or evolution card from my deck. This card in itself for me made a lot …

 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 …

 We are doing a new weekly Pokemon Card of the Day segment with reviews from moderators of the 6P Boards…I hope everyone enjoys!
Double Colorless Energy (DCE)
HeartGold & SoulSilver HS #103
Poteet24

The obvious “2″ energy attachment ability.
Splash-able in a lot of current meta decks.
No draw backs (the problems with Upper)
Speeds up Deck
Cons:
A Special Energy card, so not searchable.
Also, limited to only four copies in deck.
Limited recovery options once it hits the discard pile.
Double Colorless Energy, or DCE for short, is one of the best cards to …

 Shuppet Donk players have a little to be excited about with the release of HeartGold & SoulSilver. Their favorite puppet Pokemon gets a BFF to help expose colorless weaknesses. The new ally is Dunsparce from HGSS, which has a “Fade Out” attack of its own.
The downside to Dunsparce is that it deals 10 less damage than Shuppet’s version of the attack. This might be a problem if you find yourself starting with Dunsparce and you end up being just 10 damage short of a “donk.” …

 There is no argument against the claim that Poke-Powers are ruling this game right now. Bright Look, Flash Bite, Cosmic Power, Set Up, Healing Breath, and other Powers have dramatically impacted Pokemon TCG, and it is a rarity when you see a game that is not heavily based upon Poke-Powers. The main weapon used to combat Poke-Powers is Power Spray, but it can only be used once, and only in SP decks. The card I’m about to discuss is permanent once set up, and believe …

 Take a moment to thoroughly look over Dialga G Lv.X’s scan. This article shouldn’t sway you towards this card, because any great Pokemon player can see it’s potential already with their own two eyes.
In my opinion, this card has been thrown into the closet ever since Rising Rivals came out, but why? It still has major potential in a meta where Poke-Body’s and Poke-Powers rule the format.
First off, Dialga G Lv.X has it’s pros and cons like most cards (let’s save the discussion about Flygon …

 Hello guys! This is shinichigo (also known as Chinigo), from the Philippines!
I’ve been playing Pokemon since I was 3 (I’m not joking), and I’ve been playing for 10 years now. I’m more of a deck/card tester and analyser than a collector, but I do both. I help kids (and adults too!) in my place build their decks and I discuss strategies and tips with them.
Okay, let’s get down to business.
Benefits!
Let’s take a look first at Spiritomb’s Poke-Body: “Keystone Seal”. “Keystone Seal” prohibits each player to play Trainer cards. Now, this …
