Early Look at Mythical Island, NEW Pokemon TCG Pocket 80+ Card Mini-Set

[@josephray459]

I just tested if Gardevoir works in a non-psychic energy deck and it does!

[@TheK3vin]

People forget about Brock because he sucks (for now!) but he also will produce Fighting energy if it's not in your energy types.

[@AdeptCharon]

Red card is funny.. because they make you shuffle away the cards that you didn't have immediate use for lol

[@SkittyMochi]

Steve the true counter to Mewtwo is a Venusaur EX with 4 energy, 2 Butterfree on the bench to support it, 2 potions, AND 2 Erikas in your hand xD

[@PKMNcast]

😂

[@RuruLaura]

Usually, if I’m out and about with my family, I am playing Pokémon GO. But I’m using my plus plus to catch everything and it’s spins and they usually don’t notice lol

[@SoraSnd]

do YOU notice it?

[@SkittyMochi]

It's Super Effective! Now with an extra helping of "bah bah bah"

[@AndiDoubleV]

So i took the big plunge and deleted Pocket off my phone. After seeing the amount of cards i had left from turning that toggle on, i realised the same thing from when i stopped buying actual cards and tcg live. Its fun but i cant justify my time with it.

[@Violet_Erin]

What happened

[@flashrunner2689]

Getting on for like half an hour for dailies is too much time?

[@Violet_Erin]

@@flashrunner2689 not all players are educated enough to give a Thanks after a match probably

[@Lucarioguild7]

@@flashrunner2689 It takes you half an hour? Unless there's some battle event I'm on the app for like 5 minutes a day lol

[@AdeptCharon]

Steve: "No Grubbin" Aw man... meanwhile I'm here ignoring wild Grubbin like 5 mornings per week... I had TWO show up today, I feed something else, cause I already have my basic triple coffee Vikavolt xD

[@SkittyMochi]

Steve: "I can't remember the best fighting berry finder" Primape: "Am I a joke to you?" (When will it get to evolve into Annihilape??) -- I might've commented this before but the Mr.Mime and Ditto skill changes raise my hopes further that Skitty and Delcatty will be added to the game. "Skill Copy" functions exactly how "Assist" does in the main series games so it seems like such a no-brainer! She could even be a skill specialist for the new adjusted skill. Come ooonnnnnn Select Button give us Skitty!

[@azjei]

Omg I'm so excited for you to go the Pokémon office! They have something prepared for suuure. 💖💖💖

[@Baker300-u5p]

2 bababaas?

[@SavNJ]

31:35 just adding on to what Steve said, pack points are NOT to be confused with hourglasses used to actually open packs. So don’t open packs now expecting to use the pack points on new cards

[@SoraSnd]

Red Card works when your op have more than 4 cards in hand and you cut it to 3, maybe better at the beginning of the match where you can see your op needs to evolve something

[@SoraSnd]

RC can give you advantage in how many cards you draw vs your op

[@PKMNcast]

It doesn’t. There’s actually data on how it barely helps when you do use it. This results in you just using a better card in your deck instead, like Potion.

[@anthonnygutierrez8236]

I love Tundra, Cramo, Absol, Delibird, Slaking, Alolan Ninetales, Pawmi and Sneasel, all of them are my fav pokemon. Also, I hope someday they add Alolan Raticate and Crabominable.

[@AdeptCharon]

CRABOMINABLE I wish

[@Skyy_A]

I only use red card in specific scenarios because of how bad it gets as the match continues. If I can’t use a red card by turn 7, I don’t use it 1. Turn one when op only puts out 1 Pokemon. This way they start the match with less cards 2. Op has used all of their pokeballs and Oaks and have more than 3 cards in hand 3. Op just used Koga, but can’t evo This has all changed since the new set. I’ve now switched out all of my red cards for poke flute or another trainer

[@pketr5]

If you don't want to worry about energy in Pokémon sleep, just have a Sylveon, Wigglytuff or Gardevoir and never remove them. My Sylveon is my only level 60.

[@AdeptCharon]

Alolan Ninetales stays Ice for sure, because there are like 5 reasons why it should be... being a primary type, Ice type being way more inherent to it, Ice being the least represented type in the franchise, Fairy being relatively overrepresented in Sleep at the moment... Like, even the Ice types we have in Sleep so far, Alolan Vulpix will look more "typical" than all of the others besides Glaceon lol

[@AdeptCharon]

Pawmo's potential to switch to Fighting though.. is a real possibility. Because Electric has A LOT of pure Electric types, so those already end up being a solid source of guaranteed Electric types. Whereas Fighting is used as a secondary type a lot more, so it can use the support from dual types for representation in Sleep. One thing is certain though, if it does turn Fighting, the change will already happen when it evolves to Pawmo, because that is when it gains the secondary type in general.

[@ITh4n4tosI]

My weekly pocket update was I caved and spent 40$. Opened 44 packs, out of those 44 packs I finally got my first Mewtwo EX and it was the regular one and that meant I could by a Machamp ex. So after 2500 cards I finally completed the 226 which I've been looking for 2 ex cards since like 17-1800 cards. I also pulled my first immersive card but still no gold

[@PKMNcast]

Congrats!

[@tcClockworth]

I miss Greg. I love Bobby, I love Hannah. But I also miss Greg. Is there any chance we could get him back in the rotation? Or at least get an explanation for his absence? Thanks!

[@AdeptCharon]

My demands for coming back to Unite remain the same as 2 years ago: Add Crabominable.

[@nyko21]

Idk if it has been tested, but misty works without water energy in the deck. So I would assume leaf energy would work the same

[@DarthAfrica]

Greninja and Exeggutor deck is an idea I heard and I like it

[@mariosonic32497]

my shiny lucario is about as perfect as i could get so im thrilled his skill is getting better. i do wish we had a shop to spend dreamshards in though

[@PKMNcast]

Nice!!

[@raulalvarez5021]

Im watching this episode as I play some random PVP and someone literaly red carded me into my win condition while you guys were talking about it

[@ShagadelicVGC]

I hope everything is alright with Greg. He hasn’t been on the podcast in months and I don’t recall an explanation being given.

[@SkittyMochi]

Red Card is a toss up but it feels the worst when I JUST used a Professor Oak and then that draw 2 is wasted immediately by it

[@Cobol-Eng]

1:11:32 Well you have proof of what they had in their hand if you played a Hand Scope right before the Red Card. And then play another Hand Scope right after 😂

[@jaycon3729]

Please mention that taunt doesn’t work through shield when on that live stream lol

[@PKMNcast]

😂 will do

[@aafrophonee]

26:29 Hello Archer!

[@odamai]

I play red card to have when the opponent professor's research turns one. It's to shuffle away potential stage 1 evolutions. It's just a risk I'm willing to take. I feel it's a bet not a gamble. Just to be clear. This isn't a competitive strategy and only something I LIKE to do.

[@TheK3vin]

What do you mean WHY did they make Misty even stronger? Because she's Best Girl!

[@PKMNcast]

😂

[@chrischien6023]

Honestly given how investment and interest in Sleep is flagging so much across the playerbase, debuting one of the most lackluster 3-stage evos in Paldea (Pawmi) is probably not the best move....

[@zzeroara9511]

i think Pokemon fans vastly overestimate how many of us actually don't like the pawmi line. There's a shit ton of Japanese fans on twitter and tumblr that like them and they're VERY popular with the cozy-core/soft-aesthetic community. i think you guys need to stop getting your views on specific Pokemon from youtubers and their sheep-ass comments 😅

[@PKMNcast]

Pawmi was top 10 most popular out of all the 120 new Pokémon, what?

Check out Jeff Hooglands video on why red card is bad. He breaks down the math pretty well!

[@VirtueFTW]

That name is a blast from the past. Hopefully he has lightened up and found happiness. He was a miserable person to be around 8-10 years ago

Yeah, I saw that after I finished recording. I was considering running that data, but Jeff did first!
