Have any of you heard about the ultra-rare and oversize cards in Japan? I know
they're not tournament legal, but I'm giving tips anyway. The purpose of these
strategies is to tell y'all what to do with these cards if you ever see them
miniaturized in America. I'll start with Pikachu's Summer Vacation(you know,
the Lightning type card with Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and Clefairy in a boat
surfing down the river?).
Basic Poke'mon
Pikachu's Summer Vacation
50 HP
2 Lightning Energy: Let's Play, Everybody
Effect: Search your deck for as many Basic
Poke'mon as you wish and put them onto your Bench. Shuffle your deck
afterward.(You can't use this attack if your Bench is full.)
Weakness: Fighting Resistance: None
Retreat Cost: 1 Colorless Energy
This is what I call
broken. It's sad that it's too big to be played with, because I have a spot in
my deck that it fits right into. If you see it smaller, then you should
definitely play it in every single Lightning deck.
Rating: 9(It's not perfect because it can't defend
itself)
Next I'll do the Stadium Card Poke'mon Park:( You
know, the Trainer card where Golbat, Oddish, Pikachu, Jigglypuff, and Poliwag
stand before a mountain which has the word Poke'mon printed in English on it
and in Japanese, the words Poke'mon Park on top of a sign above Pikachu?)
Trainer
Poke'mon Park(Stadium Card)
As long as Poke'mon Park is in play, neither player may play Trainer
cards except for other Stadium Cards.
(This card must be placed
at the side of the battle area. When another Stadium Card is put into play,
you must discard Poke'mon Park.)
Like
Pikachu's Summer Vacation, this card is also a highly useful card. If only it
weren't Jumbo-sized...
Rating: 9( If only it could prevent other Stadium
Card use...)
And now, the moment you have all been
waiting for... the translation of Mewtwo Strikes Back(this is a card where
Mewtwo and Mew are fighting with a frightened Pikachu in the background, it's
a psychic type).
Basic Poke'mon
Mewtwo Strikes Back
100 HP
Poke'mon Power: Stimulating Light:
As often as you and your opponent like during your
turn(before your attack), you and your opponent may, if you wish, choose a
Basic Poke'mon or Evolution Card from your decks and put them into your hands.
Shuffle your deck afterward. This power can't be used if Mewtwo Strikes Back
is Asleep, Confused, or Paralyzed.
2 Psychic Energy: Psycho Erase:
Effect: Look at your opponent's hand. If there are
any Basic Poke'mon or Evolution cards in it, choose 1 of them and discard it.
Weakness: Psychic Resistance: None
Retreat Cost: 3 Colorless Energy
It looks as though we
have another broken card. The Poke'mon Power is too good and the attack is
screaming to be played with the Aerodactyl + Mew combo. The no damage and high
retreat cost are scary though.
Rating: 8( Highly good if it weren't for it being
Jumbo-sized)
