AOTW: Klutz

/

Gilligan. Urkel. Bulk and Skull. Comic foils, or the spiritual precursors to our Ability of the Week? …Well, clearly comic foils, but hey, don’t we all love Gilligan, Urkel, and Bulk and Skull? This week we’re examining an unusual Ability that evokes all of these icons on televised shenanigannery. Prepare for the pratfalls, people. This is Ability of the Week: Klutz!

Rare Article: Keeping Pokémon Fun

/
We all play a whole lot of Pokémon. Some people play more than others, granted, but on average, Pokéfanatics like ourselves play Pokémon a bunch, because we wouldn't be Pokéfanatics if we didn't. An unfortunate side effect of this is that the game can become monotonous. It stops being fun when one plays it too much. Sure, we love the game, but we've seen pretty much all the game has to offer. That's where I come in. I'm going to show you ways to get a newfound fervour for the games.

Catcher and the Raichu

/
If there is a single card in the Emerging Powers set that is making a disruption it is Pokemon Catcher (http://tinyurl.com/4y76m56). This reprint of the old favorite Gust of Wind gives you the ability to disrupt your opponent's field and set up. The simple way to use this card, bring up a Pokemon you can knock out that turn, score an easy prize. This card gives any deck an edge only equal to Quick Claw. It allows for decks with a fast set up the chance for an easy sweep.  What's the best way to shut down a deck running stage 1 or stage 2 Pokemon? Knock out every basic they play to their bench, and Catcher should give you the chance.

Where are the Nyan Shirts? *UPDATED*

/

As PKMNcast originally quoted, the Worlds Bundles and Nyan shirts would ship at the end of August. It is now Sept 1st and you are all probably wondering where the shirts are? Let's do some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that issues with the shirt printer occured causing a two week delay on the shirts. The good news is that delay was about 2 weeks ago, so the shirts should be ready at the end of next week! We deeply apologize for the long wait, but we are throwing in some free stuff that will be worth it. If you have any questions, please e-mail us. If the wait was to long and you want to cancel you order, we cannot stop you, but the Slowpoke will be on your body very soon, and trust us, it's worth the wait. I will personally provide an update with the exact date once my printer gets back to me, but like planned, it should be late next week, if not, sooner!

Thanks for everyone who purchased one in advance!

You're a Loser, Make it Count

/
The worst part about any competitive game is having to take the loss. Even in a game between the top two decks from nationals, played by the best strategic minds, it will result in a winner and a loser.  Pokemon TCG gives players two cards that help the underdog to the top of the Houndour-pile. These two cards are Twins (http://tinyurl.com/6d3dkdd) and Black Belt (http://tinyurl.com/5tfmr96).
