Mega Charizard Y is legit amazing! 21 minutes ago, Julius said: Spinda slander incoming Someone knows their utterly woeful Pokémon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glen-i Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 See, now I'm only encouraged more. There are some harsh truth bombs in this topic, and it will be fun to think of ways that these Pokémon could be salvalged (if at all). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EEVILMURRAY Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 17 hours ago, Glen-i said: OK, this is cool. Until I noticed that it's pupil is somehow half off of it's eyes, and now it's all I see! Anyway, speaking of nothing to do with Feraligatr or Trading Card Game, I've been spitballing the idea of doing another nerdy Pokémon thread looking at all the Pokémon that are truly terrible, like, we're talking the ones that have absolutely no viability in any capacity! For an idea of how much these Pokémon suck, even Kecleon has a fringe-case use in specific low tier Smogon cases. I did something semi-similar along those lines when taking Pokédex text literally from cards many years back https://derekwheatley.wordpress.com/2012/04/05/feature-dark-side-of-the-mon-2/ 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero-of-Time Posted October 30 Share Posted October 30 I see Pokemon TCG Pocket has launched today on mobile devices. Sadly, it isn't compatible with my phone and so I can't partake, although I did download it on the works phone to have a play around with. We are going to use that one as swaps for a lad at work who is playing it. Looks like you can open a couple of free packs every day, which isn't too bad. However, like with all games set up this way, there appears to be a lot of stuff locked behind premium passes and various currencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's also kinda meh, the game system is a watered down version of the actual TCG, and the only way to get a decent deck is to pull an EX card/Gym Leader, which unlocks a rental version of their deck* to use against the CPU opponents who later on rock 2-3 EX Pokémon per deck (and you're lucky to have even one). I've made my way through the missions with mainly the Brock deck and used only decks of own creation using only booster back pulls about 2-3 times. *which you can use 10 times, Brock has disappeared on my list to use because I used it too much.

My mate is only playing it for the collection aspect and so hasn't really bothered much with any deck building or battling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted November 5 Share Posted November 5 Downloaded it the other day and just randomly getting cards. Only really looking for the artwork. The amount of padding and animations though... Wish you could turn those off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Finally got round to trying battles and I think the cut down version works for something like this. Enjoying them so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
