Pokemon V-Union Rules

[@byeguyssry]

Can you imagine one of the pieces being in your Prize Cards though? That'd be really frustrating, especially if it's literally your last one

[@drloic7741]

We have cards like peonia to go and fetch the last piece

[@superhaydon5466]

It’s called heavy ball

[@drloic7741]

@@superhaydon5466 hisuian heavy ball doesn't work since it has to be a basic pokemon

[@SgvSth]

@@drloic7741 Heavy Ball from The Best of XY is the original Heavy Ball and would work.

[@drloic7741]

@@SgvSth No, since the pokemon has to have at least 3 retreat cost, which is not the case and it doesn't work on the prize cards.

[@dokutahhanze5319]

I swear pokemon tcg gets more complicated as time passes I remember when EX and actually getting a full evolution early game were the big deal back then

[@Yinyanyeow]

Also, you didn't have to worry about prizes so intensely either.

[@H-Man2000]

It does seem like we're slowly veering back to those simpler times with Scarlet and Violet albeit in a somewhat awkward fashion...

How convenient, I just built a Mewtwo V-Union deck on TCG live

[@bbenneddyy4130]

how is pokemon tcg live. is it f2p? is it as good as master duel? thank in advance

[@doomjunyu_]

@BBenneddyy yeah its f2p, but you can spend some real money ingame to get the currency used for customisation and you can use card codes from booster packs irl to get the pack ingame In the game we can build decks even if we dont own the cards I've never tried master duel so i dont know about that part

[@MattTheSpratt]

I feel like you Have to keep the full-sized art card around just so it's not so much of a faff having to move all four cards together.

[@isaacporadeiro3169]

i know nothing about tcg yet i still watched this all the way

[@edwardsanchez460]

So it's like a maximun summon of Yugioh rush duels

[@Fikrisirnight]

pffft everything will be more complicated

[@misterenigmatus9508]

I just created a deck with Zacian V Union and that deck is solid! It's literally unbeatable 😂 I've created a monster deck that will surely wipe every single amateur decks 😂

[@hypenheimer]

V-Onion

[@Nintendoggy]

V-Junior

[@jritch0412]

So how do they get to the discard pile? They aren't active pokemon otherwise right? You have to have an ability/card that has you discard them to get them all in the discard pile right?

[@SgvSth]

Pretty much. If they are stuck in the prizes, use Peonia. If you need to get them out of your deck into the discard pile, use Professor Burnet. If you need to get them out of your hand, use Professor's Research.

[@paj5529]

The rules are the same as Regular Chess, except for these changes

[@PokeSparkstcg]

Is it possible to hold the V union pokemonin your hand and then put them all together in the bench? I'm new to the V union.

[@dizknight]

No, you need all 4 in your discard pile. So you need cards that make you discard from your hand/deck, along with some cards to search your prize cards probably.

[@dynamicsketch]

I assume you would have to discard V-Union cards in the same manner as when other cards tell you to discard cards from your hand or the deck?

[@TazukeiOtakai]

Just finished building a deck around searching for my Morpeko V-Union and getting it to the discard pile. I dont but a load of packs back-to-back or nothing like that, so ive mainly had to rely on my most up-to-date cards to fill the roles i need. Right now my main strat is to use Regidrago V, Professor Burnet, Gardevoir (with the Refinement ability), and Ultra Balls to do the actual discarding, with various other Pokemon and trainers mixed in to boost the collection and discarding of the V-Union cards. Does this sound good enough to be a viable deck with enough practice?

[@hugo-sx1oi]

no lol

[@TazukeiOtakai]

@@hugo-sx1oi alright, well... what would you suggest i do then?

[@killeroid356]

this is so unnecessarily complicated, why do they have to make more wierd gimicks or rename existing card types (rip EX), also how do you get them in the discard in the first place

[@krazmaster2581]

Many ways, for example each V-union box come with the professor burnet to help get the pieces in the discard

[@ЗолотойЗомби-г2о]

Well, good news for you, in Scarlet/Violet sets Pokémon returns the ex cards

[@krazmaster2581]

Pretty sure that’s what they were referring to in their comment. It is confusing to be fair, lower case ex came first, then capital EX and now lower case ex are coming back

[@indaDark]

by using cards an old set had a card which let you choose 4 cards in your deck and place them in the discard pile for free

[@phorchybug3286]

Doesn't bother me.

[@10EightyPlays]

BEHOLD! EXODIA!

[@phorchybug3286]

Most... Interesting gimmick so far. Not just another ooga booga big boy.

[@emred4653]

This is cool but looks very gimmicky

[@無問西東]

Why are Pokémon V-Union NOT evolution cards and cards and effects like Basic, Stage 1, Stage 2 or Evolution DO NOT affect Pokémon V-Union?

[@lucatedesco7710]

I'm trying to play Pokemon, not trying to summon Exodia like what???

[@MasterHeracross]

I didn't think v-unions were even legal

[@Shadow8332]

Idk pokemon anymore, especially when it keeps changing the possible cards to use.

[@dario_gi_08]

Come on do a yu gi oh one

[@dnatal09]

Glad that i didnt purchase the pack containing Vunion Infernape, that gimmick would give huge slot on my deck customization if im not wrong other than the downsides mentioned in the video. Did anyone have purchase Vunion pokemons? 🤔

[@drloic7741]

Infernape Vunion doesn't exist

[@EHMM]

V-SUnion

[@Cumrel]

Exodia

[@Puffle573]

Exodia is an alternative win condition, it's not the same.

[@adoorwithstaronit8573]

@@Puffle573 I think he mentions, how in order to get the pokemon on play you gotta find the pieces same as how you try to find exodia pieces in ygo
