Hey everyone! I felt like ranting on a lot of stuff gone wrong with
pokemon in general. First of all , something that has REALLY bugged
me(and a lot of other people) Archetypes! I mean....why are they allowed?
They are to powerful...and there are few ways to beat them , that is if
you are playing against an intelligent player. Sure I 've beaten a lot of
rain dances , hay makers , wigglytuff decks and traps , just because the
person behind the deck was a collector turned trainer. Sure those cards
are top knotch , but if you have no clue how to play them , there as
helpful as a weedle against a ninetails. Still when you have a smart
player playing a clone deck...you gone. To all you Archetype players..get
some originality!!

Second , HASBRO! I know I already wrote an article on there greediness ,
but base set2 was uncalled for , now they want to release a base set 3!
and retire even more sets to make us buy more packs. Another thing(and i
know I am going to get a lot of hate mail for this) If a pokemon can
switch trainers in the show(example ashes butterfree) why can we evolve a
sabrinas pokemon to a non sabrinas pokemon? it just makes us buy more. In
japan the were just as greedy. To Hasbro I say......stop with the
greediness!

Third , little brats at the league. I have gone to the league so many
times before , but no more for me. Little brats grabbing a card that been
through the laundry and expecting to trade my wiggly for it. NO!!!! Then
when I play they put the energy under the pokemon...don't discard energy
when supposed to....and when I try to tell them they cry. And when I was
at my old league , theres this lady who looks and acts like Stuart mom on
mad TV , I wanted to trade with her son...she runs up yelling at me
thinking I am going to rip off her son.....I needed a 1st Ed. Base
Beedrill...so I offered a holo gengar. She says" Its not fair son don't
do it." So he puts away his binder..oh...i can't put up with that...and
there was this brat who had his parents buy him 2 FULL BOOSTER BOXES of
Gym heroes...and I offered him 5 for a pack..nope he wanted 10 a pack..he
actually sold one..his parent asked for part of the money he said no and
had a fit. Lastly on this subject...back in the early days of pokemon in
America I was at a camp hanging with some friends when a couple of rotten
Pokemon-atics came over to us with a SHIPLOAD of cards...I showed him my
only holo at the time , blasts and he laughs and says" How much in a
month do your parents spend on pokemon? Ours spend 200 dollars on us."
and I replied "So when the fad should ever die out , you would be living
on the streets? I spent my own 10 dollars a month you brats" Some people
need a life!!


Lastly, I would like to say I love coin flips!!! It adds more(or less at
times) equally and chance to the game. If everyone did the same damage
every time...would that be fun? No! So quit complaining about them.
