(+) Yeah! (+)

Oh wow really, huh then I guess I'll be saving my current hourglasses

Well it's not a confirmation, but that'll be over a month since A2b and three months since A2. Granted I don't believe there was any hint of A2b's existence from previous datamining, so we could still be surprised.

right before the shop resets for the month huh. Well played

Trade me your extra Charizard ex once trading opens.

Ive got 3 total, but also dont think Ive added anyone as a friend to the game or done a single trade yet

it's a good idea to add friends so you can get up to 5 free shop tickets each day

i can do GA Lapras for any of GA Weezing or STS Porygon-Z, Lucario, Luxray, Glaceon, or Mamoswine

i can also trade Shining Revelry Alakazam for any of those, whenever its available for trading

@StifledSilence @ffdragon

I can't help with Rampados because I only have two, but I can send a Lucario to FFD so he can trade for the Rampados.

Okay, I sent friend requests to the five people from the OP that I wasn't already friends with

@ifgodcoulddie Thats very nice of you. Thank you!

I do what I can.

Well I went to start fighting in U2 and I'm 5-0 so far, maybe I'll push for another tier

Also, these guys at the higher levels do not thank after a battle, poor etiquette

U3 just rage quits so I waste a minute. Gamers suck

Spoilers for next set - the theme got leaked

https://www.reddit.com/r/PTCGP/comments/1k6ia7i/next_set_rising_hope/

Looks to be based off of Gen 7. I would have preferred 9 or 2, but excited to see how they distribute the ex this time.

Uh, power creep. Boosting the basic EX HP up to 180.

edit: oh wait those aren't basics. Darn evolving legendaries, lol.

Get ready to have some fun in the Alolan sunor moonwith Celestial Guardians, the latest expansion for Pokmon Trading Card Game Pocket releasing on April 29, 2025, at 11:00 p.m. PDT! First-partner Pokmon Rowlet, Litten, and Popplio make their Pokmon debuts, alongside the mighty Legendary Pokmon Solgaleo and Lunala, and beloved Trainers from Alola. Celestial Guardians features over 200 cards waiting to be collected, including powerful new Pokmon ex and the first immersive Supporter card!

Also in the article, Rayquaza EX is the next Drop Event. This time with a 2 equivalent available.

Oh wow, rare candy is going to be very useful

Turn 1 - Charmander
Turn 2 - Rare candy into Charizard and stoke
Turn 3 - 150 damage from Charizard

One of the better openings that isn't Misty related probably.

Oh wow yea rare candy is wild

my first thought as well actually

I'm interested in seeing if GA Beedrill will see play now.

Has the potential for turn 3 70 damage off one energy.

Maybe also Victreebel gets more play.

Maybe Pawmot is actually decent with it? 70 for 2 energy, counterattack damage, and no retreat cost.

Victreebel is one Ive really wanted to make work in the past. Id love to see it gain some traction.

I'm curious if you can use rare candy on fossils too so you could skip right to Rampardos on turn 2.

Looking up the actual TGC it seems that it's allowed there.

I saw a post on Reddit where a user was able to climb through Ultra Ball with a Victreebel/Meowscarada deck. A stall meta filled with basic EXes seems like a good time for it. Less pressure to evolve immediately, and everything your opponent is using is a basic that can be freely manipulated.

Im never gonna get shiny Charizard, am I?

Only EX shiny im missing.

You're getting EX shinies?!

I only got two shinies at all, and just the regular kind. I did swap over to Palkia packs for a week or two though

Charmander
Wiglett
Riolu
Revavroom
Charizard EX (x2)
Lucario

seven shinies after 135 packs

i only got one shiny in 80 packs (and it was within the first 10 packs no less).

that's okay though, i don't really like how the shiny cards look that much anyway

@JustLurking

Yes!

Okay, I finally figured out who you were in the game, so I sent the offer

Nice! Thank you

@MZero I don't know what your trade currency is like, but if you are interested in trading your one-star Meowth for my one-star Triumphant Light Shaymin (why did they do two one-star Shaymins and why do they look different?), I am your guy, or at least I want to be.

@KCF0107

Sent! ...I think anyway. I searched my friend list up and down way too many times before realizing your in-game name isn't KCF (not that I'm one to talk!)
