Commenting Etiquette

Be cool. That's all we ask. The writers and editors put a lot of time into bringing you these articles, so show some respect. It's ok to be critical, but please be civil about it. Don't embarrass yourself in front of everyone by making juvenile remarks because you may regret it later. If you have issue with someone, "Get a room." Nobody wants to see your childish back-and-forth banter. Think twice before commenting, use proper grammar, HAVE FUN, and thanks for adding to the conversation!

I was thinking the same thing Quaziko, and i agree about the legends not being that great, at least until machamp/mewtwo circulate out. Just really pretty binder candy.

I really do not see them competitive now but I am certain there will be a set that will help them out more later on (Like Rivals for SP). People will find a way to use Entei/Raiku for that 80 damage on all that have poke’powers for 2 energies…that could win games since it is damage and not putting damage counters so Unown G would do nothing to protect it. (Bench shield can though but who uses it?)

http://forum.pokemon.fi/ Master Entei

The bad thing is, cards like Claydol and Uxie won’t be in the format at the same time with Entei/Raikou…
And if it gets much attention, Manetric PL counters E/R Legend pretty easily.
Not to beat down the card, it IS powerful. Just may not be the right time for this guy.

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheJWittz J-Wittz

the other ones MIGHT be around for the end of the format, but we’re still not sure how pop will release the next set because they cut a handful of cards from the japanese HGSS set

yer so true

Nice video! I know it really stinks that there bad but I bet someone will make these cards good. Who knows maybe they will make it to the Pokemon World Championship 2010.

Another great vid JWittz,

I don’t disagree with anything you have said. Two cards you forgot that can search out or draw the Legends (although not as effectively as Bebe’s or Luxury Ball) are Dusk Ball and Quick Ball.

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheJWittz J-Wittz

I actually say “any of the obscure ball cards” when I talk about things you can use. I just don’t show them

HunterJ

yer true you did!

just a question if you have a pokemon that has a poke-power that says once during your turn you can do something and you have say 2 of those pokemon in play can you use it 2 times

It depends on the card. If it says “You can’t use more than 1 (insert PokePower here) per turn,” then you can’t. If if doesn’t say that, then you could use both.

Killer video J-Wittz, I am glad you were honest about the cards. Pokemon USA might not be happy about that but you gotta tell everyone the way it is. :)

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheJWittz J-Wittz

haha yeah, but I think I’ll help a good handful of people before they waste their time : P. God those cards look SO GOOD though

HunterJ

the best artwork in evistance i think (for card game tht is) silly 2pieces!!
it would be awesum otherwise

Torry Chen

thnaks adam that will help in some of my decks

Delcatty Luv

Ughh this is terrible I only have 1 double colorless energy but I really want to enter…

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheJWittz J-Wittz

you can still enter a decklist with four DCE without actually owning them. All you have to do is send a list

HunterJ

youtube was being an ahole for me and i couldnt send you the list =(
an now its way over deadline =(

Great vid. You could use a poke ball. (if you flip heads)
Matt

Dang. I forgot Machamp’s attack says “…not an evolved Pokemon…” instead of “…if it is a basic Pokemon…”. Although I would love to play with these cards and how sickly looking they are… I agree that they probably wont see much light outside of the binder. At least not until a later set that aids in their search. Still a great review though!

Where do you get the card lists from HGSS

Lamar

Here’s a list http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/HeartGold_%26_SoulSilver_(TCG). However, I don’t think the U.S. is getting all the cards that were in the Japanese release.

HunterJ

yer the US is getting added bonus’s like double colourless!

http://forum.pokemon.fi Master Entei

http://pokebeach.com/heartgold-and-soulsilver
There’s a list of the English set, in case you haven’t seen it yet. Pictures are being updated, there’s about 110 of em right now.

http://www.youtube.com/user/TheJWittz J-Wittz

thanks, man. I’ve been constantly updating his page so I could get the scans. I, for one am really excited both slowking and jumpluff are in the set :D

George

These new Legend Pokemon remind me of the Arceus in the last set, great build-up, cool graphics, lousy play. I guess collectors need reasons to keep shelling out $$$$ on each new set, but as for playability I have to agree with J – no go on the Legends.

Look for Feralligator Prime, Donphan Prime, and Ampharos Prime instead. The Feralligator has a lot of potential!

Good video!!! Brutally Honest these cards look great, have the Wow factor, but not competitive. Kinda like Arceus, someone will make them work well, but for most the will just frustrate you by sucking.

JWittz: awesome video especially on a monday lol I found your video very educational and that lugia legend delcatty idea seemed nice. Dialga platinum seems like a really good idea to recycle the energy. What do you feel about leafeon lv.x with lugia legend. Combo there?
